Actually I think that kind of favors Wolfenstein.
A new IP is going to have the hardest time attracting attention, so giving it a Game Informer cover can be helpful a la Rage and Dishonored.
Wolfenstein can probably garner clicks on IGN just from the brand name, even if it has faded a lot over the years.
Nah, I got #TeamZWEI tattooed on my best piece
Mikami will bring the gaming industry the salvation it deserves

A horror focused WOlfenstein all about brutal nazi doctor experimentation and the occult?
THAT WOULD BE AWESOME
Team Wolfenstein all the way

Is there a thread I missed somewhere?

But will this game run smoothly on the PS3 lol
Yeah Bethesda's head of marketing said it wasn't Fallout.

idtech5, sure it will.
Is there a audience for a Wolfenstein game? I mean RTCW and Enemy Territory are classics, no doubt, but the 2009 reboot was horrible in my opinion and didn't have any of the mojo that made RTCW what it is
And if I remember correctly, the numbers were bad, too? Have to look that up

See, I figured it because Bethesda usually debuts their new games through GameInformer, and that a new Wolfenstein would be big enough in brand-name to be a semi-big deal for GameInfromer, definitely cover-story worthy. Ign is still a huge site, but it doesn't reach the amount of people that GameInformer does, and I'm not sure if it would be big enough for GameInformer to use it as a cover story.
Now before anyone freaks out, I'm not saying that it's not going to be a HUGE game, or that Shinji isn't relevant, I'm just saying that Wolfenstein still holds a lot of water in the industry, and it is something I could see GameInformer put on a cover without hesitation.
EDIT: How was that new Wolfenstein game by the way? Worth checking out?

ugh.
This week can't get any worse. I am ready to dig a hole and just sleep in it forever.
No, you're quite correct -- the 2009 Raven game was a commercial flop.
There really isn't an audience for a Wolfenstein title in this day and age.

Yeah, just found this
Wolfenstein combined sales barely break 100k
Wolfenstein suffers from poor first month sales
+ the Wikipedia page says that it even lead to layoffs @ Raven Software

Where is your Nazi-god now Niro :lol Does a Wolfenstein game really make sense

Does Gaf agree that Fallout 4 may have a teaser by E3?
Please, I need something to make this day a little better.

Arkane: Dishonored 2 (presumed)
Bethesda: Fallout 4 (presumed)
ZeniMax Online: The Elder Scrolls Online
MachinesGames: Wolfenstein
Tango: Zwei
BattleCry: I think this is Starfield, but it might be Quake. Whatever it is, it's an f2p competitive multiplayer action/shooter game.
id: Doom 4 (this is in development hell)
I don't think they have any other projects from owned studios, but they could be publishing someone else.
Prey 2?
If they have to advertise Zwei, TESO, and Wolfenstein at the same time, I imagine they will be a bit more quiet on that front until the end of the year.
Unless it's at someone else, Human Head has basically disintegrated.

If I hope that it's Fallout 4 hard enough, is there a chance that it will be?
They've pretty much shot that down.

No chance. As noted in the thread, marketing director said it is not Fallout.

Doom 4, Fallout 4, or Zwei.

So it's a new Call of Cthulhu game.
If the Kotaku report is any indication, it sure as hell isn't Doom 4 which is currently being rebooted
Yea, I think Wolfenstein seem more likely to get a cover, it's a pretty big name. As for the sequel vs new IP point, Prey 2 had a cover too right?
Now that could be cool.

Prey 2 had a cover on a Swedish magazine as opposed to Game Informer.

Though looking smooth is another question:
To be fair, that's the game at its absolute worst, and I would hope the situation would be improved for future games.
I'll go with Wolfenstein.
well some lead lefts but HH helped on both Bioshock infinite and Defiance.
if not HH I think Arkane may be able to complete the job.

They're like 35 or so people at this point IIRC.
I think contract work is about all they can handle unless Prey 2 has turned into a downloadable title.
That's pretty convincing. Gotta love Europeans, they leak everywhere!
The comment doesn't exactly make sense given they say exclusively unless they're able to steal IGN's scoop.
Couldn't they be piecing it all together, like us?
Italian exclusive I think

Thinking Zwei.
It jibes with the MS rumors too.
