i'm going to go for broke and say Final Fantasy Versus XIII, I could not really see anyone really thinking this which from his response seems to be the key.

I don't know if a US mag would get a revel like this coming out of japan before someone like Famitsu, but I can Dream.

Tomorrow is the summer EA event, and I am guessing that is not a coincidence.

The were bought by Electronic Arts.

Does not seem to have affected guys like Visceral, or other various developers owned or partnered with EA. I really think Bioware just lost touch/or interest in what the fans of their games really want.


Has GI ever had an MMO on the cover? I was thinking with SOEs fanfair soon maybe it could be Planetside 2, or Everquest 3.

Star Trek Online.

Also, it could be Agent. RDR and GTA would fit nicely in those two XXX's.

EDIT: Also, it can't be Max Payne 3, because they already had that issue.

Why would GTA5 needs a tagline "from the creators of..."? GTA5 speaks for itself, as does any franchise game

It's obviously a new IP
My feeling too. It's gotta be Respawn's game. EA is doing some kind of press event Thursday and these people did create Call of Duty and Medal of Honor...

Please don't be Half-Life 3. You've waited so long, Valve... just make it a damn next-gen title for when the WiiU and NextBox are out.

I can't read this thread title without hearing it in Tak Fuji's voice. <.<

So we know tomorrow? Hope it's something cool. Not too optimistic about it though.

It's almost always the first Thursday of the month.

Has Game Informer ever had a Japanese game on the cover?

I can't think of any.

Fixed bro.
Doesn't fit the X's though. Unless those aren't representative of the names.

[edit] Dope, looked at his twitter.
the Xs don't match game names and if I told you the game names..well, that would be too much info at the moment

Maybe,it's a crossover between two different teams.
So,we could not see it coming.
A Western one and a Japanese one.
Platinum Games / Rockstar
GTA Varrigan City Bloody Chronicles,only on 3DS.

What the hell am I thinking?!?

Someone mentioned Devil's Third earlier, I hope that's the case. The quote also seems to be fitting quite well - "From dudes of f'ing Ninja Gaiden and DOA".

Then it would be "dude", not "dudes". Many only associate Itagaki with those titles.
 
Please be GTA V.
Or another unnanounced game.
Heads will roll if this is DOTA2 or some other bullshit that was already announced.

Cover line we did not use for the new issue: This game is from dudes who worked on f'ing XXXX and XXXX. Read this.

Doesn't this mean the game is not one that would be advertised as the next product of well-known devs? Everyone is guessing these big-name games, but doesn't this tweet say the opposite?

edit: or is he being tongue-in-cheek? stupid internets...

He's just saying they didn't use that specific cover line, and that they used something else. It's still the same game.

There are 4 X's in the clue, rather than 3, so it doesn't fit that nicely.

Agent would be awesome, but aren't Rockstar big enough to negate needing 'from the makers of'?

Needs to release on PC and console on the same day. Why I hope Valve just waits for the next generation of consoles, so it'll be basically the same game on all platforms and will look its best.
