EGM to feature "top-secret, world-exclusive cover story" next issue (sorry if old)

We always do this, we alway fall for the hype machine. It churns itself like a butter-mill and we await the golden splendour beneath it, only to find we're left sourly dissapointed.

I highly doubt it will be something that new that we won't be expecting it, and if we are all going to be dying to play it, as they say, it's most likely a sequel.

i'm not expecting something so kick-ass that i soil my shorts. i'm expecting same-old, with new skin.

how can it be halo2? they said world exclusive. how can it be world exclusive if every major gaming publication was at the same press event covering the game.

Is there any way it could be an unannounced game? I thought that these days, no mag could really get an exclusive like that.

World Exclusive of Halo 2 is going to get a big MEH from me. Sure there are tons of stuff we don't know about the game, but still it's hardly news at this point. That type of hype belongs to heterogeneous goods and mature Zelda never seen before.

Hence, if Halo 2 = EGMton ~= Megaton = Naruto

then Halo 2 ~= Naruto

GAF exclusive!

Well, every major gaming publication attended the same press event covering RE4, but Gameinformer got the world exclusive(as well as Killer 7).

If the mansion in LM2 was gigantic & the game lasted more than 7 hours, i'd want that. LM was fun stuff :). Not world-exclusive "must have" material though :p.

My vote is for the new Neversoft game (that is not an sport game and is a new IP).

They were pretty mysterious about it at the Activate and hinted it would be something big (hope is not some kind of GTA clone or I will shoot myself).
 
It's not a game that's been shown already. I think that's pretty clear from how it's worded.

I've heard rumors that there are enough hints in this thread already to figure out what game it is. I couldn't get it though.

Black was ruled out by Che, so it's PD0 then. It's the only thing hinted at in here that we really haven't seen anything of.

I don't know if 'everyone' wants to play it though.

I bet its a 2nd game developed by Bungie, wasnt there one in development long ago? There's one than more team at bungie and they arent all working on halo 2. Ilovebees would also still work since it ends up being from bungie anyway.

Revealing PD0 before Halo 2 is released? Unless they've made it 3rd person, that'd be dumb as hell.

When will people start getting their copies?

If they are going with that lame cartoony Joanna Dark then I would guess it probably wont be directed at the same target audience.

It's Raven Blade, BROUGHT BACK FROM THE DEAD BY RETRO! :p

No, wait, it's Halo 3, being released one day after Halo 2, only for the Xboy, MS' new handheld which gives free blowjobs AND comes with an escort service that costs you $1 an hour to use!

No, wait, it's SUPERMAN 128, WITH A FREE COPY OF SUPERMAN 64 INCLUDED! NOW YOU CAN FLY THROUGH RINGS IN HIGH-RES!

I quite like the cartoony Jo (well, in comparison with the 3D model, does she have to look quite that ugly?). I just don't like where it suggests the game is going.

Seriously, we only got a lil' over 3 months to go. Time flew by fast... Hope it stays that way 'til November.

That would be fine by me. :D

And yeah, I'm gonna join the rest and say that it is probably Black. Though it could be something new, but I don't think that's very likely.

EDIT: Gah, dammit. Missed Che shooting that one down. Oh well. I still don't think it's likely that it will be something totally new, but I suppose it is possible.

Sega needs to create a "Talking of the Dead" once voice recgonition gets ironed out. It'd be a hilarious game

Yeah, you could have to recite limericks and tongue-twisters in their tricky later levels.


....now I'm angry that this game doesn't actually exist :(
 
Its the Halo 2 review. EGM has the world exclusive review for an "all platforms" magazine while OXM has the world exclusive review for "Xbox only" mags. Halo 2 hits August 24th and they're just pushing the review for it is all. Belive it.
