Actually, I think we know because EGM had it as a rumor a month or two ago and then EA told us it was true.Zenith said:

There needs to be massive positive strides in their netcode for me to be even remotely interested in playing campaign with four friends.Tiktaalik said:

So two movie tie-in covers in a row? How boring.

I'm not liking the movie games on the cover of EGM the last two months. I understand the need to appeal to more than the hardcore gamer set at the news stand but Game Informer is snagging Halo:ODST and Uncharted 2 exclusives whilst EGM is giving us word on a Watchmen downloadable game and this.
I should qualify this by saying that, for the most part, I do like the direction the magazine has moved under Milky's leadership, and I'm sure it's harder for them to get exclusives than it is for Game Informer due to circulation. I just don't care to read a feature on licensed movie spinoff games.

I really hope something comes out of that Rez spiritual sequel, as that's the most exciting rumor in the magazine since the one about SOA2, and we all know that rumor never came true 
Good scores for Persona 4. I haven't played P3/Fes/4 yet, not too sure about the sim elements and random dungeons, but it's rare to see RPGs do so well in a mag nowadays.

Yeah very good reviews for this game, to me its looks like Bully plus the traditional stuff you have in jrpg's. Don't hear much about how good the main story is would like to know more about that, all I hear is about its sim elements and the random dungeons which I already know from Persona 3.

Thanks, this gen has been pretty sub-par where superhero games are concerned, hopefully this and Batman will be good. Raven has a good history behind them too...

If this tease turns out to be a colossal turd like the Watchmen game, the demise of EGM and the selling off of 1UP to UGO can't come soon enough. Rick Wagoner thinks that EGM is being run into the ground. On the other hand, if it's BlazBlue, while I'd welcome that, I doubt 99 percent of the gaming populace cares about an arcade fighter (sad, I know...), and Milkman having another massive weeaboo boner scares me...

Oh. The publication of this statement is required.
Why does Nick Suttner care so much about Hugh Jackman's "crotchal region"? Or did someone else do that brief side-interview? Good write-up, otherwise. 
On a more serious note: can Mielke, perhaps, take it a back a notch or two on the overall "Milkyness" of EGM? He's one of the most passionate gamers around and I appreciate what he brings to the table, but he isn't a particularly strong writer and his interview methods are an, uh, acquired taste.
Great that he can score the interviews, but his approach of "asking a question based on his understanding of the facts, then have the interviewee correct him on his false assumptions and attempt to answer" drives me nuts.

They have always had that publication numbers page, well at least in mine copies that I have from 6 years ago, lol.They put funny things at the bottom of it.

I really hate how they used a horrible CG art asset for the cover. The eyes don't even point the same direction!

The cover is pretty ghastly, too. It's an extreme close-up of the game model, with ultra-blurry textures and even some jaggies.
