Seriously, it's Hello Games.

Hello Games doing Evangelion title confirmed.

 

[BeastLeeAdams]

Game of Thrones TellTale would be amazing.

New ThatGameCompany would be amazing.

Cliffy B's New game would be amazing.


None of these will happen. =(

I blame GAF.

 

[mclem]

I'm trying to fathom what a "very special game" could mean; those are very lofty words to throw out, and I'm not sure how that fits with Hello's history.

 

[Zach]

Fez 2, Phil Fish as main character.

Oh heck yes.

 

[I Wanna Be The Guy]

Hello Games. The Joe Danger folks.

Ew.

 

[PixyJunket]

What is more "very special" than Geometry Wars?

It's sort of the indie game that opened the doors for indie games on consoles.

Spoiler

Yes, I still count it as "indie" even though it was under Bizarre and/or Activision since it was made BY ONE GUY.

Geometry Wars 3. FOR EVERY CONSOLE AND EVEN PC.

"And it will be available right after our show is over!"

 

[SlipperyFishes]

No?

 

[Jimmyfenix]

The Last Guardian.

 

[JetSetRadio]

Joe Danger was pretty good. I haven't played the second one yet.

Do you guys think it could be Project Skyscraper?

 

[marrec]

MewGenics from Team Meat.

I'd fucking drop dead on the spot if Edmund's game got even a mention at any of these pressers ever.

 

[BY2K]

Project Skyscraper? It's on their website as their Secret Project.

[Gartooth]

I don't know if I will have any interest in the game, but it is nice to get a diverse lineup of titles at the show. Quality / promising games should get the recognition they deserve regardless of budget, scale, genre, platform, etc. Now if only the actual awards did this!

 

[3rdamention]

Dont play the 2nd so you can still enjoy the 1st. I didn't enjoy the second one much at all, loved the first one.

 

[BlindRage]

No?

Cliff said timing isn't right.

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Hello Games doing Evangelion title confirmed.

Yeah, looks kinda evangelion-ish =/

 

[shinobi602]

 

[salromano]

Wonder who it's from.

 

[Nirolak]

Wait, why would people pitch a debut to Brad Shoemaker if they're debuting on the VGX?

Unsure, sounds like the indie game though:

[Cow Goes Moo]

call of duty?

 

[Parakeetman]

I think this is our first new game reveal.

I'm guessing Game of Thrones by Telltale, though given it's an indie game, it could be almost anything.

Update:

This is a somewhat vague teaser, but it looks pretty likely.

For some reason that teaser animated gif thing reminds me Ramiel from Evangelion.

 

[Zia]

Hello has recruited a few very special people this last year. : )

Using LinkedIn isn't revealing too many, though that's not overly surprising for an indie developer.

Heard any in specific?

 

[Pound_lb003]

Was guessing it's CliffyB, but now I don't know.

 

[Soupstorm]

Plot twist: CliffyB secretly works at Hello Games.

 

[Gartooth]

Edit: Disregard what I said, didn't know this was an actual development studio at first.

 

[SolidSnakex]

So do we know anything about this developer? The situation seems kind of fishy, this isn't going to be another "Moby Dick Studios" is it?

Hello Games made the Joe Danger games, which are fantastic.

They made Joe Danger 1 and 2.

I'm guessing this is something a bit bigger than that given this is the VGX.

Thanks for the heads up, I've heard about those games before but the name of the company never rang a bell.

 

[Pound_lb003]

If special people is the same as 'big names' there's not really many in the Guildford area, outside of Molyneux.

So if it IS the same thing as a big name, then it has to be international talent.

 

[Nirolak]

Thanks for the heads up, I've heard about those games before but the name of the company never rang a bell.

Yeah, they're not a very well known developer.

 

[TheWorthyEdge]

Their skyscaper project for sure.

 

[Zia]

Using LinkedIn isn't revealing too many, though that's not overly surprising for an indie developer.

I know former Edge editor Alex Wiltshire is working with them. I've heard that they may be working with a "name," but I don't know if that "name" is part of Hello.

 

[BlackBuzzard]

Never bought Joe Danger 2.

 

[RaikuHebi]

Indie Game: The Movie: The Game.

 

[Doug Heffernan]

Joe Danger 3.

Yay?

 

[Vulcano's assistant]

Whatever Crytek is doing now.

I missed the thread. What did crytek say again?

Chance of it being Hello Games keeps increasing

 

[funkystudent]

I bet its something exclusive to xbox.

Announce some random indie support at the start of the week and close with one big exclusive "get".

A name from outside the industry?

As for ex-journos, that's not as exciting.

Could be, but Hello Games wasn't on that ID@Xbox list that MS released recently.

 

[funkystudent]

I am sure they asked developers if they wanted to be publicly listed like that.

For example ThatGameCompany is probably working on a xbone game but they probably dont want there big reveal to be on some random press release.

They won't be releasing a game for a long, long time: http://www.joystiq.com/2013/04/09/thatgamecompanys-next-project-is-years-away-says-departing-d/

I am not saying that that is this game. Although who knows. TGC does like to announce games years out.

I am just saying that list of developers MS revealed is probably not every single indie developer who is working on xbox one.

 

[Krusenstern]

Hello Games doing Evangelion title confirmed.

Was thinking the same when I saw that gif.

Reminds me of Ramiel:

 

[PaulloDEC]

No?

Announcement from Double Fine? Awesome.

We know they're already working on Broken Age, Massive Chalice, Spacebase DF9 and something for Sony's Playroom. I wonder what this will be...

 

[Glass Shark]

I still mourn for FEZ II on a daily basis.
