A 2K forum moderator has translated German magazines PC Games and Play3, revealing a lot of new info, as well as detailing a gameplay presentation of Bioshock 2. The facial animation is apparently a lot better, Tannenbaum is set to return, the Big Sister will change over the course of the game and much, much more. The presentation is summarized below.

The black screen fades into a clear view, you hear music from the 50s. Before your sight is totally ok, you hear the walky-talky voice of Tennenbaum: "Wake up". Now you see that you were lying in knee deep water, inside a small hall of Rapture. You stand up and discover the drill on your right arm. You break through some wooden stuff and step into a group of Splicers. There is a fight and some of them flee. The Big Sister quickly appears, fast, agile, but still slim and somehow fragile. With a screaming sound, she jumps at a panorama window and you hear some strange scratches. The Big Sister is trying to break the panorama window! And she succeeded. Water masses make their way into the room until its completely flooded. As a Big Daddy, you walk on the silent and cold bottom of the sea, outside of Rapture. You can see a Splicer through an intact window, but he pays no attention. Again, you listen to Tennenbaum's voice: She explains that the Big Sister is a grown up Little Sister, which turned herself into a Big Daddy like being. She carries little girls from the land to Rapture, to make them harvest Adam. You step throug an air lock and return to the inner world of Rapture. You stumble over a Little Sister, who welcomes you as "Mister B." You choose to protect her and carry her on your shoulder until she finds an "Angel". The climbs off to harvest, but then Splicers come. They rush onto the Little Sisters, equipped with pistols, grenades and wrenches. You fight against the Splicers with a firestream (Incinerate) plasmid, the rivet gun, close combat pushes with the gun and of course with the drill. Some fight later, the whole earth is shattering - the Big Sister appears on a balcony. "The Big Sister doesnt want you to play with me!" the Little Sister screams. The Big Sister lands right in front of you, throws some chairs at you and after a direct hit, you go to the ground. The screen fades into black - the Bioshock 2 logo appears. End of presentation.
