See... with bullshit like that we can be sure that this game does not exist (or at least not in the "version" he saw). I wouldn't get my hopes up.

So you guys think a game exists that journalists have been shown that represents a "step change" in gaming and yet the only one pimping it is a guy from the BBC?
Shane would have been pimiping it all over the internet if such a game existed.

It would be consistant with the BBC's "journalism" on games issues.
it's heavy rain.
complete name is "heavy rain: the origami killer", n'gai talked about it, but in reality he wasn't allowed to name it (NDA and all that stuff). the game is truly impressive, i'm trying to make a person who saw it behind locked doors to speak about it (he said doors weren't closed, they were locked and made him sign a NDA with his own blood), but i think he won't spill the beans, until next month when the game will be finally showed in Leipzig (or whatever it's called).
the only thing he says about it is:
"i'm here to tell you that if i do this job (he's a game journalist), if i've been playing since i was six, if the dream of my life was to become game designer... well... all of this is only for a game they showed me last night behind locked doors (locked, not closed) and that the famous journalist n'gai named in his twitter. HRTOK."

I'm betting it's Team Ico's game.

Before I was convinced it wasn't Heavy Rain, now I'm convinced it is. The description fits perfectly and the fact that Heavy Rain was secretly shown behind closed doors at E3.
Heavy Rain
If it is HR, the BBC journalist needs to learn the difference between unannounced and announced.

Now that's a conspiracy theory. Sony publicly announcing the cancellation of a game so that they can work on it under wraps.
Doubt it was Heavy Rain (he'd be allowed to say it's name), nor Eight Days (games cancelled). It could however be something similar or using the Eight Days/Getaway 3 engine as Team Soho/London must be working on some other stuff. Team ICO's new game and/or a FFVII remake (the latter unlikely) are a possibility too.

This.
And does anyone expect the BBC technology correspondent to be that clued up on gaming issues?

His take on the MS conference, notice there is a glaring omission of something that was announced?

How could something that nobody has heard about or knows the name of BE VAPOURWARE?
Heavy Rain.
Heavy Rain.
it probably is heavy rain. under the NDA signed by those who saw it there was a mention in not saying the name of the game. when i asked about it via PM to a person who watched the trailer, he asked me how i knew the existence of it cause it was shown to 12 people at e3 and they made him sign a NDA with his own blood.
in fact he called it HRTOK and, to a question about what the acronym meant, he answered that sony would cut his balls and put them on his head like micky mouse's ears if he said it.

yeah, he's talking about vaporware, so it has to be something that was announced in some way. CODED ARMS!
I'm still hoping it's another game because that way we'd have two awesome games incoming.
However, notice that sometime ago he said "bla bla brink of a step-change in story-telling etc etc" but didn't mention a name. People who saw Heavy Rain the other day have just said "Heavy Rain" and "yummy" or "wow". Just a "word". Absolutely nothing else.
If he said the game was Heavy Rain, he'd be associating his description of a while ago to the name, which is pretty more than "wow", thus possibly breaking the NDA.
Of course, I assume Sony's NDA is quite draconian. I don't think I've ever heard of such a limiting one. (except for those that don't allow you to say anything o
)
Anyway. ONE. MORE. MONTH!!!! So hyped!

I'm unsure as to what popular franchise it could be that is returning, but it's fun to speculate. Or perhaps Sony have swiped an exclusive from another console, who knows.
But everyone should embrace the games coming sooner rather than in 1-2 years time.
Someone should send a link to the BBC dude of the HR "casting" thingy and ask him to clarify.
Personally I think it is HR. But the idiot inside me keeps thinking of SCEE London/Liverpool... Protector and all that jazz.
slider's inner idiot speaks up again: Also... logical fallacy... if this mystery game is a few years off, in it's current state, is it likely to impress so much? Remember he said that shit about if it is in game.
