FYI, it's back on Gamestop.

Surfer Guy changes things in his blog posts all the time so I don't want to change everything around on my end. Plus it's helpful when you try to compare and find anything he's backed off of.Shiggy said:III) Big Huge Games Wii title is God the Game
--> Looks like a 'Yes' to me:

5) No Wave Race, Luigi's Mansion's 2, Excitebike (it's called Nitrobike) or 1080 for Wii. Punch-Out for Wii, if it has gone beyond the prototype that was made last year, is a remake of the original NES title.
--> The "No" had been crossed out:

20) Factor 5 would like to develop for Wii, but there are not any concrete plans for a title.
That one was changed too:

3) F-Zero is coming to Wii and possibly, but probably not being developed by Monster Games (even though someone with a rather legimate email address said such).

Thanks for that God the Game link though, I've edited the OP to include that.
Thanks, I dunno if anyone has noticed but a few weeks ago I cleaned up the unconfirmed rumors section a ton, moving and removing things left and right. It's using three posts instead of four now.Shiggy said:I looked through all the rumors and it's a tough job to do that. So I'll let you do it
Kudos for the work!
Updated OP, thanks!Shiggy said:So her Punch-Out rumor was true. It is done by Next Level Games.
4) Apparently, N-Space is no longer Nintendo's Floridian inamorata.
I suppose these are true/coming true. Sims is schedule for February 2009 and Nintendo seems to have bailed on N-space3) When is The Sims 3 coming out?
Currently scheduled for February 2009 around the ninth anniversary of the release of The Sims.
2 of the 3 have been announced so far (Wario Land Shake and the New Warioware mario paint thing)3) Three Wario games are in development.
This one is likely to be true for NA1) Nintendo's new handheld will see release in late 2009.
2) Afrika is a "nonviolent game" with "positive social themes." Something certain to appease those who have always wanted to spell doom to fictional poachers without violence."
1) Activision hopes you like Spider-Man, the company is producing two further web-slinging titles in addition to this fall's ultimate Red vs. Black, one follows our wall-crawling friend as he teams up with Wolverine for amazing some reason and the other I don't know about but has to be spectacular. Originality! Excelsior!
And these.4) Infinity Ward has begun working on Call of Duty 6. Originality! Excelsior!
22) Super Punch-Out! is coming to Virtual Console [in 2008].
2) Afrika is a "nonviolent game" with "positive social themes." Something certain to appease those who have always wanted to spell doom to fictional poachers without violence
2) Also coming next year from Backbone Entertainment is a version of Gauntlet for the DS, the hack-and-slash adventure will support the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection for multiplayer with up to four players. Gauntlet will also make an appearance on Nintendo's other system in the same timeframe.
3) BioWare Austin's first massively-multiplayer role playing game, coming 2009, has a fantasy setting akin to the company's previous fantasy role playing games, possibly based on the intellectual property those fantasy role playing games revolved around. As previously mentioned, this is not related to Star Wars, BioWare Edmonton is working on that one. But the new Star Wars MMO, tentatively slated for the latter half of 2009 (possibly coinciding with the premiere of the Star Wars TV series), is in development elsewhere. LucasArts may have a second MMO up its sleeves as well.
2) What is this new Blizzard MMO?
Demons, the Blizz don't do new IP.
9) At least one 360 SKU with built-in WiFi will be out later this year.
2) Anyone looking for an indicator of what they will see in The Sims 3 ... [will] have to wait until the 17th. Simultaneous Mac release...what?
1) A little title called The Godfather II will feature a deep online component somewhat akin to Grand Theft Auto IV.

leroy hacker said:This has been true since the release of Geist, long before Surfer Girl ever blogged.
Shiggy said:Nope, there were two Wii games in development, published by Nintendo.
leroy hacker said:Do we have any source for that besides Surfer Girl?

grandjedi6 said:The blog is gone completely. So basically this thread is all that is left of the Surfergirl rumors.
True. Well, in 2009 but whatever.7) Watch out Mario Kart because Electronic Arts racing to the finish line [in 2008] with MySims: Racers for the Wii and DS.
She is right now.15) Ghostbusters game is coming 2009, likely not being developed by ZootFly, and is coming to PS360 and possibly Wii.
I am fairly certain that Surfer Girl was operating primarily based on extensive use of Google, as well as comprehensive poring over resumes, LinkedIn, and so on--and then the notoriety of the site caused additional rumors to be mailed in directly. I do not think Surfer Girl was part of the actual industry in any significant way. I am extremely confident about that overall appraisal.MrNyarlathotep said:That and the global nature of the rumours didnt suggest someone in recruitment (whose 'insider info' would be more likely to be related to their country of operation, outside of the occasional immigrant).
It would seem much more likely they were involved in either PR / Press, or at a stretch Investment (big shareholders for various companies and serious potential investors see all sorts of NDAed materials on upcoming projects by publishers to persuade them to splash the cash)
This. A million times THIS.Snaku said:I'm just grateful that Surfer Girl's Beyond Good & Evil 2 rumor came true.
All I have backed up is the OP in various text files.w3stfa11 said:I cached some of the blog using Furl. I can supply the blog upon request. That is, if DuckRacer hasn't already backed it up.
Haha. Will add.Sloane said:True. Well, in 2009 but whatever.
Just saw the website and immediately remembered it to be a Surfer Girl rumor. :lol

It doesn't? The vast majority of games with the moniker 'online' is an MMO. Co-op games almost never (possible never, not sure) include any reference to that function in the game.JCX said:SotC onloine doesn't even imply MMO.

stuburns said:Thing is, I'm sure lots of people have heard that rumor that they have two games in-development.
I don't believe SotC Online at all, but two new games doesn't seem impossible.
