Found that from the site. Game must be set in the future because at one point the radio voice says 2026 or something Olympics.

S. Korea vs Ghana in the World Cup, in an abbreviated field of contestants.

There's also links that trigger different voices but only briefly, one of them says "Sir we have an incoming transmission from Ghost Leader."

There's always a new Tom Clancy game, he can only sleep on a bed of money so many times before he has to toss it out and get a new one.
 
The weird part is, everything about the trailer screams Ghost Recon.

All the links are voices of reports of war with Mexico and low-level EMP's being detonated on the NSA, CIA and the Pentagon. There's even one with the general telling Mitchell to take the plaza. Following the storyline of GRAW 2, this could just as easily be Mitchell
recovering from the EMP dropped over him
. You can even see the target recticules of GRAW in the videos.

Could be another Ghost Recon game as well...weird...
 

VOOK

We don't know why he keeps buying PAL, either.

HOLY SHIT!

One of the clips mentions a Splinter Cell and it has the night vision goggle noises.

Could this be the Clancy crossover game?!?

The word "Firehawk" has been mentioned twice already in this whole thread.

i wonder if this is some sort of "commander" type game. more about strategy and less about action. most of those audio clips are some guy giving orders left and right.

In the latest EGM issue, it said the new Tom Clancy IP would be a different kind of game, not like the usual first/third person Ghost Recon/Rainbow Six game. My guess was a RTS type game too, or maybe a Fire Spectrum Warrior clone.

The scrolling text mentions the Cross-Com as well as EMP damage, so...

Sounds like a crazy fictional war. Every capitol has been moved. And there is something called the "European Federation" as in a unified Europe. Senator Kennedy eh?

Here's some idle speculation of what the site's address might mean, from a lazy Friday afternoon post on my normal gaming forum site...

Much like NUMB3RS on Friday, if the data works out too perfectly, it's probably wrong. I randomly picked one way to interpret it and got really interesting results. So, I'm probably wrong.

If someone's already figure out what it's related to and proven my (admittedly yanked almost out of thin air) theory wrong, just let me know. If not, let me bask in my conspiracy fueled splendor for a few more minutes.... :D

It's late on a Friday afternoon... let's let the mind wander... and wonder...

jsf28555833-80604722

Acronymfinder has an entry for JSF that sounds appropriate in a Tom Clancy game... Joint Strike Fighter.

Now on to the weird stuff...

I was trying to see if those numbers represented a word (nope, no ASCII/HEX/EBCDIC stuff that I could find) then I noticed it could be looked at as two numbers, or coordinates... but latitude/longitude coordinates were two groups of three numbers...

Let's break the longer hyphenated number into two groups of four two-digit numbers:

28 55 58 33 80 60 47 22

If you take the difference between each number and the one after it (as two groups of four two-digit numbers) you'll end up with two three digit numbers.

So the difference between 28 and 55 is 27, 55 and 58 is 3, etc.

You end up with:
28 55 58 33 and 80 60 47 22

27 3 25 and 60 13 25

Now if you go WAY out on a limb (as in way further than we already were), you could assume this is latitude and longitude.

Latitude 27 degrees 3 minutes 25 seconds
Longitude 60 degrees 13 minutes 25 seconds

I figure I've got about a 75% chance of that pointing to water... but it didn't. I think about Tom Clancy and I think war, fighting terrorists, etc. Where do those coordinates point? Iran.

Joint Strike Fighter: Iran

Coincidence? Probably. Cool? Yeah. :D
