Game Informer Tease: "Screenshots ... are gorgeous. My jaw is still on the ground..."

I had a dream.

It was June 6th. I was watching a certain stream that showed Reggie talking about the latest and upcoming 3DS games. After that a present was given to Reggie on stage. It was a crowbar...

Then the stage went all black and a video started.

'HL3 ONLY ON WII U'

Yea...back to work.

No direct source, no care. Fake like all the rest.
 
Why would they show that? Why not be more subtle about it?

Hmm. I had no idea Valve was going to be at E3. Is this news or has this been known?
Probably known.

Yeah, we've known that for a while. The interesting thing is that they've opted for a private meeting room, even though the only two games we know they're working on -- CS:GO and Dota 2 -- have been in public beta for months, and in the case of the latter, E3 "isn't really the right type of venue [for Dota 2]." So, the question is, just what do they plan on showing? ;)

This.

I want to see the original Tweet.

I don't think there is one. While the OP of that BMS thread mentions a Valve employee originally tweeting the pic, the Steamcast tweet credits Reddit user billthejim.

it says this is going to be one more thread where half of Gaf is going to get burned by an overhyped reveal that's going to end up being something we have already seen 6 months ago or nothing actually amazing ;D

(i'm guessing it's Halo 4)

Not sure what you're expecting, but the majority of their past reveals have been pretty damn good.

Almost all of them are big reveals, too bad there isn't much PC love. I wouldn't be surprised if HL3 never gets a cover on GI since It probably would be revealed at some expo instead.

Are you sure that was the reveal? I believe that was after it had been announced at E3 prior to getting the GI cover. That issue I think was their E3 overview special.

Portal 2 was announced via an ARG in March 2010 (the cryptic update to Portal). GI unveiled the game the following month.

Haha, I knew that was going to be a Ricochet 2 joke.

The first part of the ARG lead to that cover reveal and at the same time the reveal of Portal 2.

So yes.

There was the ARG, and then there was the official reveal in GI.
edit: I am a slow typer :-/
 
Shouldn't there be some leaks by now? What day of the month do people who would leak a cover usually get their hands on a GI?
 
Wait... these "jaw-dropping" screenshots, surely we won't just get a concept art cover/text blurb cover? I'm assuming that people who'll get their hands on the mag will be able to partake in these brain-meltingly amazing shots...

He has stated that the cover will make people talk.

So the cover could technically be nothing else than a text of [insert name of anticipated sequel] ( because it sure as hell won't be a new IP ) and no pictures, screens or anything in the mag itself.

Let's hope that's the case. I'm more and more leaning towards the less optimistic scenario, plain text/artwork on the cover and no screenshots. Because let's be honest, a title is enough to get people to talk.

Like so

"Bayonetta 2"
 
How long fron now, guys?
I just want to be surprised in a good way...
Not keeping any hopes up, for the sake of sanity.
