Biography
Edit
YOU GET A STAR, MR. B!
Genetically programmed to search for the ADAM essential to the social fabric of their undersea city, Little Sisters roam through the portals and tunnels of Rapture. Because the substance they extract from the recently fallen is so precious, the girls are accompanied at all times by their fearsome, diving suit-clad protectors, the Big Daddies. Armed with a deadly drill, possessing incredible strength, and capable of quick bursts of speed, the Big Daddies guard their charges jealously, making all who attempt to harm a Little Sister wish they hadn't.

Opening
Edit
The story begins with Big Daddy and his Little Sister wandering the streets of the underwater city, Rapture, looking for ADAM. The Little Sister becomes impacient with Big Daddy for begin too slow. As he catches up, she strangly find a passage out of Rapture and continue on searching.
- "Hurry, Mr. Bubbles! Hurry, before the others get here. We're close Mr. Bubbles. 4, 5, 6, I find the ADAM quick. Where are you?! Hurry up! C'mon, Mr. B."
- —Little Sister
Rival
Edit
Name: Sackboy
Reason: While out searching for ADAM, the Big Daddy and the Little Sister come across Sackboy, who Little Sister admires for his cute and soft appearance. As Sackboy and Little Sister play jumprope, Little Sister proclaims that she and Sackboy will never be separated by the likes of Big Daddy. Confused and enraged, the Big Daddy revs up his drill, preparing to rip and tear the cloth-and-cotton intruder.
Connection: Both BioShock and LittleBigPlanet place emphasis on the player's choices, moral and ethical choices for BioShock, and level and character designs for LittleBigPlanet. Big Daddy and Sackboy also come in many different varieties. Both also cannot talk and have someone else talk for them: Andrew Ryan for Big Daddy, and Stephen Fry for Sackboy. Their designs also take inspiration from Shane Acker's award winning 2005 short film 9.
Little Sister: I wish I had some jellies. Come on Mr. B.
(Sackboy appears.)
Little Sister: What's that?! This one still sees the sunshine!
(Sackboy uses Pop-It to make the strings from the cursor appears, then plays jump rope with Little Sister.)
Little Sister: Look, Mr. B! Jump, jump! No one needs to get hurt, no one! Unless we miss a skip!
(Strings shrinks out.)
Little Sister: I like you ever so much! So full of stuffing! He's my new friend, Mr. B! You'll never split us in two! Go back to your underswampy, Mr. B!
Ending
Edit
After chasing away Sackboy and defeating Polygon Man, the Big Daddy and the Little Sister forgive each other for their behavior towards one another and return to their underwater home. Although she is a bit sad that her new friend is gone, the Little Sister tends to move on. As she sings a little song, the Big Daddy glows with Polygon Man's power, intending to not allow any splicer to touch his little girl ever again.
- "There's a land called Lillipoppi. And living there is a lillipop. I'll go there soon, Mr. Bubbles, and we'll search the place from tail to top. And if we find no TattleLamby, Maybe we'll dine on Ham and Jammy, If we can't find the Lillipop. Come ON, Mr. B! Some friends stay and some friends go...some friends we never see again... But we keep going on and on, don't we, Mr. B?"
- —Little Sister
Gameplay
Edit
Big Daddy uses its brute strength to fight, either by using its fist or drill. It can also use plasmids, similar to Subject Delta, another Big Daddy, and also the protagonist of BioShock 2. Despite its strength, Big Daddy is a very slow and lumbering character.

Trivia
Edit
- Like Colonel Radec, the reason Big Daddy was chosen to represent BioShock is because it's the franchise's most well-known character.
- Big Daddy is one of four characters whose Level 3 Super can affect stages, the other three being Dante, Isaac Clarke and Zeus.
- Big Daddy is the first third-party character to be revealed in the game.
- Big Daddy is also the third villian character added to the game, the first two being Sweet Tooth and Colonel Radec.
- However, Big Daddies can be either neutral, like most Big Daddies are, or evil, like the mentally unstable Alpha series. However, only one notable exception had the ability to be a hero.
- A Little Sister and Big Daddy were two of the many third-party characters to make a live-action appearance in the Long Live Play commercial.
- Big Daddy was announced at the Sony 2012 E3 press conference along with Nathan Drake.
- The Jeremiah Lynch Doll was requested by Irrational Games to be one of Big Daddy's alternate costumes.
- The Big Daddies appear as enemies in the Ratchet & Clank game Secret Agent Clank, though they are named Megaliths.

Added by Alexray35 - Big Daddy and Sackboy are the only characters who lack a true voice actor.
- Big Daddy is oddly capable of swimming in stages with water, when Big Daddies would normally sink due to their weight.
- Big Daddy's Level 3 Super not only makes opponents swim, but also some background characters as well, such as the Patapon in Hades, the Chimeran soldiers in San Francisco, and Buzz in Dreamscape.
- Big Daddy's eyes will change color depending on certain factors. If there are no opponents around, his eyes will be green. If an opponent is near, his eyes will be yellow. If he is attacking or being attacked, his eyes will be red.
- One of Big Daddy's losing screens shows him lying on the ground with a Little Sister mourning for him, similar to what happens when a Big Daddy is killed in BioShock. This makes him and Isaac the only two characters with losing screens that imply that they might've been killed.
- Despite this, the Big Daddy will always be shown alive and defeated at the results screen.
- In the game's opening, his portholes glow.
- Big Daddy's Background in the main menu is underwater.
- Big Daddy and Nathan Drake are the only characters who don't have a Playstation All Stars Battle Royale character trailer.
- Big Daddy was originally the slowest, biggest and most powerful character in the game. As of the recent DLC, he is second in power size, and slowness to Zeus.
