Just posting this for the new page:

From Goldstein's twitter.

It's not a game anyone's been looking forward to except some folks @ign... but maybe you will after the trailer tomorrow at 10am PST.

I knew this was a waste of time.

 

[Always-honest]

Has anyone mentioned that canned Indiana Jones game that used Euphoria?

Yup, someone did.

 

[derFeef]

Has anyone mentioned that canned Indiana Jones game that used Euphoria?

That became a Wii game, no?

 

[PuppetMaster]

What was that game from like 2 E3s ago with that asian looking girl with a sword?
It was an all CG cut scene. And I think it was a Ubisoft game but I can't remember the name of the game for the life of me.

 

[Kusagari]

If only IGN has been looking forward to it then it's probably some stupid High Voltage game.

 

[Veal]

It's Sadness.

 

[PuppetMaster]

It's Sadness.

 

[Cyborg]

Ign... So it will probably disappointment

True that....i dont expect to much of this.

 

[edgefusion]

If it's so old/obscure that nobody can guess what it is then who cares? The only thing it will be at this point is a disappointment.

 

[The Lamonster]

I hate announcements of announcements. This will surely be a letdown.

 

[Bog]

Don't really care if they deny it, I'm still convinced it's Eight Days.

 

[ultron87]

*throws baseless speculation into the ring*

Kid Icarus for the Wii.

Clearly everyone forgot about the console version.

 

[Sealda]

True Crime: Hong Kong?

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

If only IGN has been looking forward to it then it's probably some stupid High Voltage game.

Oh my god

Oh my god, you're probably right. HVS even has a 360 FPS coming out that hasn't been seen in almost a year and no one other than IGN would care about (The Grinder)

 

[CitizenCope]

Kid Icarus for the Wii.

Was thinking this also.

 

[Graphics Horse]

Oh my god

Oh my god, you're probably right. HVS even has a 360 FPS coming out that hasn't been seen in almost a year and no one other than IGN would care about (The Grinder)

Hmm, I originally dismissed The Grinder because I thought it had already come out and been forgotten about.

 

[Nabs]

Oh my god

Oh my god, you're probably right. HVS even has a 360 FPS coming out that hasn't been seen in almost a year and no one other than IGN would care about (The Grinder)

i dont think the hvs fanboys work there anymore

 

[BlueMagic]

Syndicate.

EDIT: Oh, it was already confirmed not to be. Sorry. Black & White. Little Big Adventure 3.

 

[Busty]

Something from a first party Sony studio.

Am I playing right?

 

[Killzig]

Mechwarrior please.

 

[Lonestar]

FreeSpace III?

If only...

[Zarovitch]

I still want Grinder.

 

[BobTheFork]

I was going to guess X-COM before I saw the other thread. They announced it a long time ago, we haven't heard since and it;s certainly a game only certain people will care about (given the new direction)

 

[g.r.e.]

Maybe that Halo MMO

Spoiler

now made by blizzard D:

 

[twinturbo2]

Daytona USA?

Please be Daytona USA...

 

[KAL2006]

the game is

XCOM

 

[DangerStepp]

Huxley.

The Crossing.

 

[mclem]

It's not simply Kirby Wii, is it? I mean, *we* know it's back, but there's not been that much in the way of formal announcements and PR machinery in play?

Not that Kirby's particularly synonymous with CGI trailers.

I'm still plumping for Project: HAMMER, tho'.

 

[Sega]

Has anyone brought up Castlevania SotN 2 (or whatever it was to be called)? A trailer for a new Alucard Castlevania for 360/PS3 was shown years ago, and was never mentioned again. I'm thinking they stopped/slowed production when they thought Lords of Shadow was the future of the series, then possibly started it back up when they realized LoS wasn't as embraced as they hoped it would be.

 

[CitizenCope]

Links Golf!

 

[ultron87]

Huxley.

I feel like this is a good guess.

Or maybe The Agency? We haven't heard anything from that in a long time, right?

Made it pretty clear the excitement is for the trailer itself. Can't help if people try and overhype it.

He's trying to back down the hype of calling the "trailer of the year" by blaming it on people who got excited. Classy.

Just a reminder of his hyping this trailer up:

"shocking and unforgettable"

"the trailer really is phenomenal, a word I don't use lightly"
EDIT: Hilary did not say this, it was another IGN employee.

and

"Wow. Saw the game trailer of the year just now. Holy crap. You will see it exclusively on IGN tomorrow. WOW."


but don't overhype it guys

 

[Killzig]

Pretty sure he could help it by not making hyperbolic tweets. Shocking and unforgettable.

To be fair on the guy that was all he claimed originally. A "trailer of the year" for a relatively forgotten game that's being re-announced.

Wow. Saw the game trailer of the year just now. Holy crap. You will see it exclusively on IGN tomorrow. WOW.

 

[StuBurns]

That tweet is really irritating. He claims a video he sees two months into a year is the best of the entire year, so it must be so much better than any other trailer that the sheer possibility of a better trailer this year is literally zero, and then he claims people are over hyping.

Moron.

 

[FunkyPajamas]

Ugh, this is what happens when girls review videogames.

Spoiler

I know Hilary is a guy

So you've never been irrationally impressed by a game or a tv show or anything like that this early in a year? It happened for a lot of people with Mass Effect. Chill people, you have your own powers of judgement.

 

[Corto]

I blame it on Twitter.

 

[Ignis Fatuus]

I've never been irrationally impressed and then turned around and accused others of over hyping whatever I was irrationally impressed by.

 

[snoopeasystreet]

Saints Row 3?

 

[Seda]

I still don't understand how this can be an apparently excellent CG trailer for a game that not many are looking forward to. Such a trailer seems like it would be a waste of money.

 

[Concept17]

Starcraft Ghost

Sure I have, but I haven't then blamed other people who react to my irrational excitement.

Sure he can say it's the best trailer of the year, but then don't blame people for getting excited by that.

 

[Suzzopher]

Never trust a man with a girls name.

A trailer can impress regardless

 

[FoneBone]

I'm just going with X-Com, although that's a huge stretch for something that was announced less than a year ago.

 

[Songbird]

I've never been irrationally impressed and then turned around and accused others of over hyping whatever I was irrationally impressed by.

Well people are going about convincing themselves that it's their favourite franchise coming back from the dead, this is anything but. He's hyping up an exclusive trailer and people ought to read the OP.

I still don't understand how this can be an apparently excellent CG trailer for a game that not many are looking forward to. Such a trailer seems like it would be a waste of money.

Marketing will sink millions into a fancy CG ad campaign if it gets people interested who would never have ever cared before.
