Aksys 4infinity countdown ends tomorrow (7/3), most likely Zero Escape 3

I like how game-breaking save bugs are at the $4m mark.
What? VLR was amazing.

U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!
I'm so desperate for ZE3 that they could announce it as a 3DS exclusive and I'd still be ecstatic.
Or should it be 6^(1/2) times slower?
I admit that 999 felt more threatening, but VLR was great, too.

If the conference is at 9pm for me in the UK, why is my countdown clock (on the teaser site) saying it ends at 1:00?
1:00 PDT = 1:00 BST??? Eh?
1:00 PDT = 1:00 BST??? Eh?
VLR lame? Finally evidence that opinions can be wrong.

Just want to chime in to say I actually proposed this during the very first thread that ended up getting locked after the hype stairlift circlejerk occurred, and that I calculated this would make it end around the middle of October.
It's been there for a while now.

The countdown clock is set by the local time on your machine, hence why it looks like it ends earlier to you.
I am so desperate for ZE3 that even if there is no 3DS version, I would still buy it for whatever system it is for. Twice.

Looking forward to tomorrow. The teaser site has been interesting, but I'm ready for the big reveal.
I agree with this. VLR was ass but damn 999 was great!
If there's two things I learned on this forum it's that I shouldn't badmouth VLR or MGR. I'd be a baaad apple with shit opinions then apparently.

I'd buy it if it was ported to the TI-84 (graphing calculator) like that one 8-bit Steins; Gate spinoff.

I need to get on that VLR soon. Jesus. The hype.

New thread HYPE! I'll just reiterate how excited I am for this announcement!
Whatever the outcome, I won't mind. As far as I can tell, we can get ZE3 announced (a trailer or something would be awesome!), Kickstarted, or even some other games in the Infinity Series brought over to the west. All of those options are good to me! ^_^

holy shit this countdown went on for this long? Now they're practically fucked if this is anything else other than ZE3. You don't tease like this for what, 4 months? damn
it was alright. nothing close to 999

Holy crap! Today's real megaton is that more than two people can have the same first name.
Agreed. 999 was probably one of my favourite experiences in gaming. VLR was "merely" a very good game.
As a whole yes.
The jump mechanic was brilliant tho, miles above the text skipping in 999.

VLR is GOAT, I stand beside you
BTW (VLR ending spoilers)
What if the "?" at the finale of VLR is... the funyarinpa?

Presumably 3DS and vita. And PC if it's a kickstarter.
If we could have had 999 with the jumping of VLR.

You should divide these numbers by 10, it really isn't that expensive...

If this ends up being a kickstarter for ZE3, I might give the man at least a thousand dollars.
there is no real answer to such things.It would be that expensive if they said it was.

999 just had this charm for me that VLR didn't... I haven't been able to get myself to replay VLR, but I have replayed 999 (albeit the iOS version, but still...) and watched a playthrough of the DS verison again.
That's not to say I didn't think VLR was amazing, because it was a ton of fun... I'm pretty sure part of the reason I never replayed it was the time investment. >_> The Timeline and all that really helped the game a ton, and overaly the gameplay was a lot better! (it's a shame that the save glitch was ever hanging over my head! >_<)
For you, it just might be...

Come on now. I'd be surprised if this wasn't ZE 3.

Unless they made everything 3D with free camera and full body animation for everyone or I really don't see that high a cost.

Yes. Sigma >>> wimpy animu teenager trope.
It also had much better mysteries and revelations than 999. The latter dropped the ball on everything but that single twist (which is also really predictable after everyone kept hyping it up). And even that was lessened by the sappiness coming from Junpei. While VLR was just full of holy shit moments.
Oh god, I really want ZE3, but thinking about the possibility of them focusing on finishing that terrible Junpei storyline... *shudders*.
VLR also finally managed to realize the story telling possibilities which still fell flat in 999 because of the too archaic Visual Novel built.
Probably impossible, if it's still a game set between 999 and VLR.
999 had a open ending, but that game hinted at a sequel.
VLR threw it in your face and then no sequel was made.
Until now. Give me answers to the question, finish it with dignity.

make ZE3 with godlike pacing like Remember11 and 999, add the puzzles and flowchart from VLR + completely new sort of twists = mindblowing experience!
i hope that ZE3 can top R11 for me, but it will be difficult, even if R11 should have had one more route!
