Game informer cover reviel on thursday


Mute Giant

Recommended Posts

I dont know if this has been mentioned or if it even deserves its own topic; feel free to strike me down if it doesnt.

 

Anyways! According to Andy McNamaras (GI editor) twitter profile the next game informer cover reviel will be this coming this thursday. For those of you that dont know, (and if I remember correctly) GI was the first magazine to give us info regarding san andreas and IV, and I think it is highly possible that they will be the first to shed light on GTAV as well.

 

Whether the march issue will have V on its cover or nor is just speculation. However, as I have understood, this guy normally hints at what game it might be in advance; like with the xcom game from this months issue to which he hinted was a non-surprising game with a surprising developer. This time around he seems rather quit though, perhaps in an R* fashon?

 

I dunno.... Am I grasping the straws here? whatcha think?

Eh, it's not really too far-fetched. I remember reading the GTA IV cover story way back in '07. Fingers crossed! icon14.gif

Well only 3 days to go before we find out. I hope R* will finally come out of the dark and give us some looonnnnngggg awaited GTA Juice.

 

But it is quite funny how farfetched we are willing to go in order to squeeze any vaguely related news absolutely dry in a futile attempt to quench our thirst for GTA V.

 

R* will release info when they please, and there is nothing we can do to influence this.

Yeah, I had ask him on the 26th if he could give us a hint about the next cover... I ask for a tease on the April cover, had my months mixed up LOL! Because he was going on about having 5 choices of awesome games for the May cover and it threw me off... anyway, he replied back "@FRA1Z3R Next issue is March, and soon. smile.gif"

 

If it was GTAV, I think he would have been teasing it by now IMO.

Maybe he wants to surprise us. The announcement of GTA V came out of nowhere, why not the same with a first worldwide exclusive preview?

 

But whatever, I think it's not V.. sad.gif

Not going to hold my breath. I've became somewhat imune to disappointment though, so it doesn't faze me. Hopefully we get some kind of info in February though. It's been 3 months since the trailer was released... so I'd say we are due for more insight.

I want to be sceptical about it, but the truth is, I see some hope. Sure, R* wants to focus on MP3 right now, but GI always gets special exclusives way before any real hype starts, doesn't it? But then again, they would probably make a lot more noise if they had V's reveal. So yeah, it could be V, but I'm going to presume it isn't to save myself from disappointment.

I reckon March or April will be Assassin's Creed III because that is actually coming out this year and it isn't even annouced yet... for AC3 to not come out in 2012 would be a pretty epic fail.

 

If GTA V isn't the main feature in March or April GI you can kiss all hopes of GTA V in 2012 and probably this side April - May, 2013 goodbye imo.

Nah, no need no bring out a new Assassins Creed every year. Quality over Quantity, remember?

The last game is set in 2012. To miss that ship date that they've been aiming for since at least 2007 would be pretty retarded.

Sure, this is true. But don't say this to him, say this to Ubisoft sigh.gif

 

Anyways, I don't think it'll be GTAV, I'd be surprised though.

If GTA V landed a Game Informer cover, I'd be psyched. I would love to see some concept art.

I've seen February 2nd mentioned a few times on here so it's definitely a possibility.

Thursday is significant for two reasons: 3 months since first trailer and also TTWO investor conference, where even a slight bit of GTA info will drive shares up.

Well, thank God I will be away from the internet for a few days. Going to a friends 21st b-day and I plan to get drunk as f*ck, then I'll be staying there a few days.... then I will be heading to Texas Roadhouse and afterwards going to see The Grey. Hopefully when I come back on Sunday this place will be FILLED with news. cool.gif

Remember the last time this was hyped up, we had the forum drooling and panting over the next cover release, teases on twiiter and people following everyone so they could get to see the new cover ASAP, ...and it turned out to be South Park. biggrin.gif

 

The posts on this forum after that were hilarious, looking forward to that happening again.

Side-note:

 

Last thing about AC3. While I dislike it being annualized like this you have to remember that the last AC where Ubisoft Montreal were lead developers was Brotherhood (2010) and they still had a handful of other studios working on that one as well. Revelations was spread across 5-10 developers across the world which is why it largely sucks ass and how they manged to get it out in such a short time period.

 

Ubisoft Montreal [the main/core studio] have been working on Assassin's Creed III full time since at least 2010 so that's a good 2-3 years by the end of the year. It's the first major installment in the series since II (2009).

 

So while it's been annualized like POS:MW/BO I just think of AC:B and AC:R as disc-based expansion packs predominantly farmered out to external B-studios with some oversight by Montreal. All I'm saying is the quality will not suffer so you needn't be worried about that. And having a game all about 2012 come out in 2013 is not an option. not an option.

Have they been THAT secretive?

 

We recently got an announce and a freakin' trailer.

 

Try waiting for Half-Life 3.
