Sander Cohen in the new Bioshock infinite trailer?

[John123]

Hey, so I noticed some guy in black listening to music on the balcony in the new trailer for Bioshock, and it really looks like Sander Cohen, the build of him and his hair, and when you went back to his appartment he was listening to one of those old music boxes (forgot what they're called, lol) as is the man in the trailer which could be some sort of clue... Also, Bioshock 1 was set in the 1960's and this is set in 1912.. it's a big gap but still.

what does everyone else think?

[Jedi Knight Big Daddy]

A bunch of people said it could be Andrew Ryan

[Grathius22]

It could be a guy listening to music. Nah... I doubt it. Some one who plays such a little role, and probably doesn't even get a model name, is most likely a major plot character.

I think you're on to something there

Like I said, I think I'm wrong. The nameless stranger who is only seen for a second is most likely a major part of the plot.

I hate playing the guessing game, dam you Ken for making us wait 2 more years

Don't worry. That nameless man who we don't even see the face of, is the mayor of Columbia, obviously. In the game, we will see him many, many times.

No guessing, here.

Are you on the inside?

[Big Bad Sister]

Ever considered that he might just be a nameless member of the Columbian gentry?

This is the truth.

Good sir, if I was I could not tell you.

2K pays me...

[Mr.Plum]

I'm thinking it's Stall; one of Columbia's politicians.

BUM BUM BUUUUUUM!

[Grathius22]

BUM BUM BUUUUUUM!

BUM DUM DUM BUM!

Anyways, not much more to discuss.

In all seriousness, he was just some dude listening to music.

[Sinclair Saucer]

He seems to be conducting the gramaphone!

"Your a grand old flag!......"

Fair enough, but I don't think if we was just some dude so much attention would be given to him, as he is the first person (out of 2) that you see. Oh well, it very well could just be some dude lol.

I think it's just 'some dude', because... he was well, just some dude.

The reason they focused on him was because he was listening to music, showing that he was patriotic, showing that Columbia was patriotic. Showing the style, and the way the people of Columbia are.

[I-ChooseTheImpossible]

I'm thinking it's Stall; one of Columbia's politicians.

I was under the impression that this bloke was Stall.

[gamertam]

Hmm interesting. Maybe it's Andrew Ryan's twin brother or Atlas. It's set in 1912 so i'm guessing it could be one of those main characters. But i could be wrong on it. Need more infos. before making any kind of assumption at least for me.

Why is it so hard to believe that it's just some random guy!?

[Vallanthaz]

Why are you trying so hard to piss all over somebody who merely brought up a harmless theory?

As much as you'd like to pretend differently, you know as much as everyone else here, which is pretty much nothing. That dude could be anyone, and it doesn't hurt a thing to hypothesize about who it might or might not be.

[Grathius22]

I'm not. I'm just surprised that everyone is thinking that a random guy has a major influence in the plot of Bioshock.

EDIT: I mean... people are acting that he is so serious, when we didn't even see his face! Why would 2K do something stupid like that? He's not mentioned anywhere, the place he was in didn't look important, and he himself looked average. He was just a guy, and I'm trying to point that out.

I'm speculating and judging from the clip i saw on youtube. Like i've said, i could be wrong and that i'm hoping more info would come forward in the future. Like the thread' title said. Sander Cohen in the new Bioshock infinite. No it's not so hard to believed that it's just some random guy also.

What I typed above brings some valid points to 'he's just some dude.'

According the the BioShock wiki (which could be wrong) Cohen was born in 1910, so he could not have been a fully grown man in 1912.

[Blade_Runner]

either a random guy or a cameo just for that teaser

Random guy. he didn't even look like Cohen, or Ryan, honestly.

[Blade_Runner]

he looked a bit like Bio 1 Ryan.

maybe he's another main character?

[Grathius22]

He was just standing there... showing no implications of importance AT ALL.

[temporaryplaceholder]

...even if it is Ryan/Cohen/major characater/minor character... we will never know, even when the game IS released. You just can't ID someone from the back of their head.

We can rule Cohen out as he would have been 2 years old in 1912.

[temporaryplaceholder]

This entire thing being in an "alternate universe" to the Cohen's Bioshock, blows that out of the water when considering artistic licence.

I still have faith that Levine wouldn't drag Cohen back from the grave like that because it would be just cheap... but just saying, the possibility is out there.

[Big Bad Sister]

This reminds me of all of the people who kept insisting that the Big Sister (TM) was Masha Lutz, just because she had a name while no other Little Sister did.

[SPINEBLOOD]

he is icuris the new atlas

[Grathius22]

Good lord... he's a random guy. I see people sitting outside all the time, and I don't assume their the president!

I mean, I hate to rain on people's parade, but he didn't even look important, or show any importance at all.

[Codex]

Hey, come on guys. You know you'd dance to awesome music like what he was dancing to on a balcony in a city in the sky. If you didn't suffer from vertigo, like me.

We won't know if he's important for two whole years yet. No need to be flaming each other over something that can only be put down as a "we won't know till the game comes out."

[soundwave145]

but he completely ignores the guy falling 20 feet out a window and garbing onto the side of a balloon i mean...wouldn't you at lest go..hmm..that must be the intruder...oh well...-keeps dancing- maybe its o.o.l

He either didn't hear our protagonist, didn't care about our protagonist, or was crazy.
