New Game Informer cover tomorrow, next gen game reveal [Up3: Definitely Thief]

I hope the joke is that the bow contained is, like, a bow. That you wear on your head.

Alice 3!

Yeah, it seems like a ton of people are working on this and its being given a ton of attention and resources across all of BioWare and even EA.


That said, with the hint of a bow and arrow on the cover, that seems more central to Thief than Dragon Age. Considering that the only bow and arrow character in DA2 was locked behind the Day 1 DLC paywall.

Right, if the cover is about someone with a bow, I'll say Thi4f.

If it just has someone with a bow on it in the background, Dragon Age 3 becomes more likely again.

Another one of these GI teasers

I'm gonna go and guess it's going to be a very underwhelming "announcement"

(remember the "MW will have MULTIPLAYER !" )

If said bow doesn't have a bowstring it's Dragon Age 3, if it does it's another game.

OMG please be Thief.
Another reboot we can all hate due to the dumbdowness =D

Red Dead Redemption 2

You play as a native american, armed with a bow or something. I don't know.

Great. If it's not this now I'm going to have to murder you in your sleep.

I could definitely see Dragon Age 3, it's just that Battlefield 4 is like 100% for sure ready to be shown off since they actively are, whereas Dragon Age 3 seems like it's sort of ready, sort of not ready.

This has never stopped a Dragon Age reveal before.
 
Is there some kind of Game Dev zeitgeist going on there. Did they all have a secret meeting about putting bows in every game? What's next, a bow as the protagonist?

It'd certainly be great to finally see Thief 4...

Yeah right. No way Rockstar shows off a next-gen Red Dead Redemption before GTA V comes out.

It's really Thief? Oh god I'm not ready for the disappointment. One of the last franchises I have left that hasn't been completely shat on yet.

Square did fine with Deus Ex, Hitman and Tomb Raider. Yes, they are different from the previous games, but they are all good. I trust they deliver solid work with a Thief 4.

Can't wait for threads to fill up with complaining about a small feature ruining Thief then loving the game in the OT then hating it again in the LTTP.
 
I've never played Thief. I read up on it and looked at some screens but can't quite figure out why people seem to go crazy over this franchise. What made it so great ?

LOL. Yeah really fine. Fans only completely despise those games for not having a shred of what makes them special in it.

Deus Ex was ok but it was still too modernized. I think it gets more of a pass because Invisible War already happened, whereas something like Hitman never had a game like Absolution before it came out.

It's the best pure stealth series ever. To this day most stealth games haven't been able to match Thief 2.
