Cultural References in Burial at Sea Ep. 1+2?[]
Any game or cuultural references in Burial at Sea? It should be loaded, if not of just the previous Bioshock games. Tricksteroffools (talk) 04:46, August 12, 2014 (UTC)
Oops, disregard, I thought the DLC would be in its own different tab like the Minverva's Den DLCTricksteroffools (talk) 04:48, August 12, 2014 (UTC)
Speculatory entries[]
The following entries were moved here, because they speculate, and do not have any sources to back them up. Grayed-out text is copied for context.
From the section "References to the BioShock Series"[]
- The only combination lock to feature in BioShock Infinite utilizes the same code as the first combination lock encountered in the original BioShock, which also happens to be the first code used in Deus Ex: Human Revolution and was the code for the door to Looking Glass Studios, creators of Thief and System Shock. This was originally a reference to the book Fahrenheit 451, and the Firemen of Infinite may also be a reference to the novel as well.
- Zachary Comstock's last name may be a reference to Anthony Comstock, a 19th century American politician who became infamous for his extreme religious fanaticism.
From the section "To Other Video Games"[]
- In the voxophone A Dog's Loyalty, the speech Comstock makes sounds similar to one of the radio broadcasts of President Eden from the video game Fallout 3. "When I was a child, growing up in rural Kentucky, I had the best friend a boy could hope for, my dear old dog, Honey." It can be an inspiration or Easter egg.
From the section "Burial at Sea"[]
- Both episodes have references to the 1986 film Aliens.
- Sally's doll, Sarah, remains only just a head. This is a possible reference to Newt's doll, Casey, who is also just a doll's head.
I'd like to add that some of these were already removed from their main article. —Mainframe98 talk·blog·edits 09:41, August 8, 2019 (UTC)
