Update:
Oh well... I think it's probably just a batch of registrations with no real games behind it - also found:

Original post:

http://whois.domaintools.com/lifeisstrangego.com

http://whois.domaintools.com/justcausego.com

Both domains were registered by the corporate domain registration service CSC Domain Tools. Square Enix uses this company for all its domain registrations. For the above two, of course Square Enix isn't included in the WhoIs as of now as the registration is still private and new.

But the rest matches up with other domain registrations:
http://whois.domaintools.com/laracroftgo.com
http://whois.domaintools.com/justcause3.com

A Life Is Strange GO with a rewind mechanic would be amazing. and super weird.

 

[anddo0]

How would Just Cause GO work?

 

[Icyflamez96]

How would Just Cause GO work?

destroy everything

Spoiler

I was thinking more Pokemon Go than Lara Croft Go

 

[KingBroly]

How would Just Cause GO work?

It'd just be an explosion simulator.

 

[UberTag]

Go go gadget wallet. If these live up to their predecessors, I will happily pony up the dough for them.

I just stumbled across the DeusExGo.com domain independently. Google search cache is still showing the registrant as Square Enix Limited (the UK office). So I suppose they changed the whois information sometime earlier this month after registration.

Could just be a brand protection thing. Maybe, maybe not!

 

[ponpo]

Life is Strange Grand Order

 

[duckroll]

Alright guys, let's GO!

 

[super-famicom]

I love Life Is Strange, if the GO version is real I'd get it.

 

[Moonlight]

Hard to imagine how Life is Strange GO would work, but I'm interested to see that.

 

[Nightbird]

Life is strange GO?

How would that look like?

 

[Shiggy]

Life is strange GO?

How would that look like?

You move a character in a round based game across a virtual game board and need to take out enemies or solve small puzzles by using levers?

 

[jediyoshi]

Life is strange GO?

How would that look like?

If they were willing to add a manually activatable ability to the GO formula, seems like it could be straight forward from a puzzle perspective. Would be weird to consider whether they would even tie any narrative to it since Max's time from her getting the power going forward is pretty mapped out.

 

[Herb Alpert]

Obviously ports for the Nintendo GO.

 

[peaceiscloser]

Just Cause: Global Offensive

I'd buy it

 

[Who]

I love the possibility that there may be an actual video game, likely to sell millions, called Just Cause Go.

Just Cause Go.

Just Cause Go.

The different stages could be multiple chapters of What if Chloe/Kate/Warren/etc got the powers instead, and some light hearted story stuff, nothing too serious. Just shenanigans in Arcadia Bay.

 

[breakfuss]

I'm sorry but Go as in the board game? I don't understand what this means.

 

[jediyoshi]

I'm sorry but Go as in the board game? I don't understand what this means.

The GO series is a Square Enix line of puzzle based games that are themed to their other franchises. Started with Hitman GO

[ekim]

Yes. See Hitman Go and Lara Croft Go.

 

[super-famicom]

I'm sorry but Go as in the board game? I don't understand what this means.

Here's the trailer for Hitman GO, the first of the GO games (turn based puzzle movement games): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9kJxrLSwHU

 

[lazyproblems]

Hitman Go and Lara Croft Go were great, so I would gladly get these. Especially a Life is Strange Go.

 

[danowat]

So this is the next fad then?, no doubt every IP will be jumping on the GO bandwagon.

 

[Data West]

Sleeping Dogs Go

 

[Reveirg]

I wouldn't read too much into all of those.

(I'm still waiting for Final Fantasy Type-4.)

 

[kami_sama]

After the success of both Hitman GO and Lara Croft GO I'm more than happy to have more similar games.

 

[Warablo]

Hitman GO was amazing. I have Lara Croft GO but haven't played it. I have high expectations because Hitman GO I would say is one of the best mobile games ever.

 

[Crub]

I think Deus Ex is the best bet for the next GO game.

 

[kinoki]

Hitman GO was amazing. I have Lara Croft GO but haven't played it. I have high expectations because Hitman GO I would say is one of the best mobile games ever.

I agree that Hitman GO was really good and at times great. Tomb Raider isn't quite as good but it's still good and sometimes even inspired. But it settles at being a cash-in and doesn't feel as inspired.

 

[Shift Breaker]

Deus Ex seems like the next logical step for the series, maybe give the protagonist some kind of upgrade tree for different routes to clear each level.

 

[SolicitorPirate]

Wowsers, Life is Strange Go would be hella cereal!

 

[jotun?]

so it is the board game Go, unrelated to THE board game Go

 

[Yabberwocky]

Whelp, I'm here for a potential Life is Strange GO.

 

[kadotsu]

Life is Strange GO is basically Echoshift from a isometric perspective, so give it to me.

 

[Red Hood]

Deus Ex GO

 

[Nirolak]

I'm assuming they're just trying to get everything to keep their options open.

 

[duckroll]

I'm assuming they're just trying to get everything to keep their options open.

No Final Fantasy GO though.

 

[TheGrue]

Life is Strange GO could be cool if it were puzzles related to the adjustment of time.

 

[RedSwirl]

Deus Ex GO

Might work. Just make it like another hacking minigame where the whole thing takes place in cyberspace.

 

[TheYanger]

I agree that Hitman GO was really good and at times great. Tomb Raider isn't quite as good but it's still good and sometimes even inspired. But it settles at being a cash-in and doesn't feel as inspired.

Cash in?

This is the first time I've seen anyone prefer Hitman go to LC Go actually. Lara Croft GO is fucking awesome. Hitman GO is merely great.

 

[CJCW]

Where's my Legacy of Kain Go?

 

[Nirolak]

No Final Fantasy GO though.

Would you want to work with Square Enix Japan staff?

 

[brickarts295]

Might work. Just make it like another hacking minigame where the whole thing takes place in cyberspace.

How they haven't cashed in on a mobile version of those hacking mini games from HR is beyond me. I love those suckers XD

 

[Shiggy]

I was quite a bit disappointed with Lara Croft Go. Perhaps Hitman Go was just too good.

 

[Kyonashi]

The GO series are absolutely my favourite mobile games I've played. Was hoping for at least a Deus Ex GO, hope all four come to fruition.

 

[jediyoshi]

This is the first time I've seen anyone prefer Hitman go to LC Go actually. Lara Croft GO is fucking awesome. Hitman GO is merely great.

This is the first time I've read, in a direct comparison between the two, someone preferring Lara Croft.

I think simplicity is key to the series, having to take into consideration different inherent rule sets for different stages muddies the formula a bit.

 

[Mutagenic]

This is the first time I've read, in a direct comparison between the two, someone preferring Lara Croft.

I hear from most people they prefer TR.
