The Spike VGAs Reveals: 11/13 Teased, 4 Known For Pre-Show/Commercials

Ryse, maby? I don't think you should expect anything big from Microsoft at the VGA's. Hell, no rumours are flying around and that tells us a lot.

The lack of rumors (especially for MS) is weird but there are still 6 games that haven't been announced and I assume that they may be pretty big considering they still keep them under wraps a week before the show...in other words there is still hope for a Halo 4 trailer. :p

Also Ryse was kinda confirmed by Spencer at E3 that is a hybrid/controller-Kinect game and I doubt a hybrid game will be the big announcement from MS at VGA's.

Frank O Conner from 343 Industries has already stated two times that Halo 4 will not be at the VGA's, no ambiguity, he outright said "no".

Didn't know that. :(
 
But he always said after that "But if we do remake it 343 Industries will have a lot of input on it".

We pretty much knew it, there where multiple rumour sources and a lot of winking in interviews.



then you know that the only "big" game for Microsoft in the next 12 months and the only game they need to start advertise building hype on .. is Halo4 :)


i usually do not bet.. but a trailer for H4 would by safest bet for this VGA ( because the next E3 will be used for next console :) )

I won't rule out Diablo 3 for PS3 being the 'exclusive'. Blizzard have been gearing for bringing the game to consoles and i can see the Auction House stuff preventing a 360 version so they bring it just for the PS3.

Plus, they are showing the game's opening cinematic at the VGA's. I don't recall them giving so much exposure for a PC exclusive even if this one is Blizzard. I can imagine the video ending with a PC release date and then next to it 'Fall 2012 on PS3' fading in.

I seriously doubt they are going to ditch millions of sales just based on something small and optional like an auction house.

But Halo 4 will be a next gen game so it's too early. ;)

Wasn't Parappa The Rapper's catch-phrase "I gotta believe"?

Move+Parappa/Um Jammer Lammy would be a nice thing, but realistically its not something you could sell at retail these days.

SCEE's CEO Jim Ryan:

“There’s a bunch of stuff at the back end of the year. I’ll just tease you with this because I not going to tell you what because I can’t, which I’m very excited by, and you’ll hear about it over the coming months. It’ll give you plenty to write about.”

Don't get me wrong, I'm hoping it does show up but I'm keeping my expectations low.

It's an FF7 remake, has to be. The only thing left to push a ton of units. It'll have integration with Vita too, maybe like the advent children movie or something. Nothing from Valve is going to be PS3 exclusive, and I don't think it's Diablo 3, that just wouldn't make sense.
 
Remember that Gears of War Kinect game that was heavily rumoured and then allegedly pulled from last years VGA's? Was that total bullshit or was it cancelled?

OH man, all the rage and bitter tears that would cause, if Cliffy came on stage and announced a new Gears game, and at the end of the announcement put on his best trollface and added 'oh, I forgot; it's Kinect only'.

I think the rumour was that it was going to be called Gears of War Exile or something.

"One thing I've learned in the world of video games, it's a war out there.
"There's a lot of strategising going on and at any point something may shift due to a strategic move that needs to happen. So I came out here potentially announcing something. It turns out the timing's not right."

It would be interesting if Microsoft's big 2012 games were:

Fable Journey (Kinect)
Alan Wake: Night Springs (XBLA)
Ryse (Kinect)
Star Wars (Kinect)
Gears of War: Exile (Kinect)
Halo 4

and Sony's were:

PlayStation Battle Opera
MotorStorm RC (PSN/Vita)
Twisted Metal
Sorcery (Move)
StarHawk
MLB The Show
Jak and Daxter HD Collection
The Last Guardian (Speculative)
God of War 4 (speculative)

What if the "hewg" news is that GoW Exile was cancelled as Kinect game but resurfaces as a Move-only game?

Has Sony trademarked any new games or registered any new sites lately for God of War or Heavenly Sword? I still feel it'll be SSM's open-world game.

Big chance Ryse will be a next gen game.

Yeah, I'm gonna approach this one with caution.. That last time I was hyped about a "surprise" this week, we got a South Park RPG.

yep....CAUTION.
 
Battlefield 3.5
I just want a real Battlefield 3. The current Battlefield 3 that DICE/EA released at the end of October 2011 was a Bad Company 3 without the single player. :(

I like Bad Company well enough, the story in the first BC was hilarious. But the difference between multiplayer in Bad Company and Battlefield 2 (PC) are totally different!

Well hype train continues, it will burn, Geoff knows, next year we repeat it again.

It would be educational if someone made a thread of previous Keighley teases with their
lackluster
results. In fact, I'd like to see such a thread pinned to the front page.

There's no way the answer lives up to the hype.

I mean, it happened this very week already with South Park! GAF will never change. (Even though Game Informer was true to its word, it was indeed a surprising cover reveal.)
 
So, when will this crushingly disappointing reveal take place again?

Sometime during the VGA's on December 10th.

Anyway, Half Life 3/FF7 remake/Kingdom Hearts 3 for me or bust. Unfortunately I have a feeling it will be a Gears prequel for PS3 only or something. Meh.
