PC Gamer "Huge Announcement"

[JobivanHiob]

I'm one of the guys who likes to read magazines websites to gain new info about upcoming games. Read this (http://www.pcgamer.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=31670) little thread and especially this post: PC Gamer has this huge announcement coming for April or says their little blurb
I'm really curios to know more. We will know more in early march, thats the date when the April issue of PCGamer is coming out. I'm crossing my fingers for DNF, now it's possible more than ever! :cool:

[hiob]

Bleh, wont you learn, it's an old marketing gag. The big announcment is probably "The Sims: Milking the Cow Collector's Edition" or something like that.

[Kristian Joensen]

Pacman 2. Huge in game magazine language means microscopically tiny.

[Marty]

yeah, these "huge announcements" they keep making are old and are never DNF related so its pointless for me :D
last one i believe (not sure if it was from PC Gamer) was for Sim City Societies, and that game blows

[IwantMORE]

It's huge but not gigantic.

I think it's safe to say that it looks like the wait might finaly be over and we will get a release date some time this year...

[Sang]

The last times we had huge announcements like this they ended up being for Street Fighter and Sim City. Not really expecting this to be any better, but one can dream..

[JobivanHiob]

I know these gags, but a huge announcement 3 months after the "stay tuned" DNF teaser is so fitting.

19th December 2007 - teaser
29th January 2008 - exclusive interview with the art director
early March 2008 - exclusive reveiling of the game in PC Gamer
some days later - publicly released trailer

conclusion: a classic way of reveiling a game

[GOK]

Carmageddon IV :)

[JobivanHiob]

Pacman 2. Huge in game magazine language means microscopically tiny.

but they allready used the superlatives for games like Sim City Societies :p what should they call a DNF preview? "In our next issue we preview the ULTRA MEGA ÜBER Game of an allready forgotten franchise"?! :p

[avatar_58]

I thought after the last yawn that we wouldn't get any more threads like this.

[Riddlewire]

They're announcing that they're becoming Console Gamer

[Morry]

Carmageddon IV :)
I couldn't get excited about any possible titles until you said that :)
I would love to see another version of this classic game, there's nothing like some good ol destruction in a car and now with tech like Havok and Natural Motion, the gameplay could be amazing.
One of the only other titles I would wet myself seeing would be Blood.

[MeatWagon]

Its been all quiet from Croteam, maybe sam 3 or that other thing they are working on, so there thats my speculation

[big fat lazy]

I have PC Gamer. It said they have a world exclusive announcement of a game next month, but they get world exclusive announcements all the damn time.

They said the game is part of a series, and it has bears.

What Banjo Kazooie 360? Who cares, we already know thats coming. :doh:

[FireFly]

Duke Nukem Forever: Endangered Species.

[JobivanHiob]

bears? WTF :o
so still no DNF :ted:

lol maybe they mistake Pigcops for Bears.

[HazMat]

Sounds close to DNF. What other game could it be? carmageddon sounds close except for the bears. DNF has big ass pigs that looked like bears.

[JobivanHiob]

Duke Nukem Forever: Endangered Species.

yes what is if 3D Realms reanimates Duke Nukem: Endangered Species with another external developer because Action Forms was to bad to make a good Duke hunting FPS (HFPS). Hey Action Forms coded one of the badest games of all time: Vivisector. They currently make Cryostatis: Sleep of Reason.
But on the other hand Endangered Species would take the thunder of DNF away. :o

[KaiserSoze]

It's not DNF.

[Micki!]

Carmageddon IV :)

Oh good lord, i wish !!!

If it was DNF, they'd probably say it aoutright...
"We have SEEN Duke Nukem Forever, read about it next month"

That would attract alot more readers than saying "huge announcement", in case it was DNF...

At least it makes much more sense to me that way...

[Karthik]

What was it then?

[JobivanHiob]

^he know more than us :D

then what is your guess Kaiser? What game that has bears

[JobivanHiob]

Oh good lord, i wish !!!

Carmageddon with bears? OKAY :D

[HazMat]

Maybe he meant to say boars.

[Kristian Joensen]

Could you quote the piece ?

:D

[HazMat]

^I hate PIGS!^

[JobivanHiob]

or Diablo 3, and it has at least one bear, namely the Druid :p

[NutWrench]

PC Gamer has this huge announcement coming for April or says their little blurb

Bullshit! :)

Everything is a "huge announcement" with PcGamer. They've used this tactic for years. YEARS! And no one ever learns.

[Stense]

Guys its Winnie the Pooh: Fist full of Pooh Sticks.

[HazMat]

What other developers have a nearly forgotten series.

[Echo Black]

Daikatana II: Electric Boogaloo

[Hudson]

Bear Hunter 2009

[HazMat]

If thats their big news they can go fuc* themselves.

[gt1750]

Bears? I guess there are none around Las Vegas...

... but there might be a few in Carmageddon 4 :D

[Mr.Fibbles]

Bears you say? Oblivion had bears. . .

Do you know how many games have bears? Even reaching back into the "classic series" section there are a lot of choices.
Probably Rollercoaster Tycoon with bears as entertainers.
Then you get pretty much every RPG in mythical lands where you get "random encounters" like things in the wilderness with bears, lions, wolves, etc.

Could be anything, probably nothing.

[avatar_58]

I'm still going with Banjo Kazooie Games for Windows announcement. They do own rare after all, and Viva Pinata had a PC release. Just sayin....

[motionblur]

Bear Hunter 2009
Hell yeah! :cool:
I've been waiting for this game to be released since 2002....

[The Stinger]

Oh good lord, i wish !!!

"We have SEEN Duke Nukem Forever, read about it next month"

True, most likely it's a game that isn't good enough to attract allot of people so
they give the good old "OMG IT'S HUGE!" act.

Remember the HL2 ad? Well DNF should get something similar to this:
http://halflife.multiplayer.it/immagini/articoli/9776/img10.jpg

[Nihilanth]

Nothing to see here.

[Wamplet]

They do this nearly every magazine. Just turn to the very back page of the magazine and you will see the same message just reworded every month.

LOFL, that joke never gets old... :D

You know it's gotten to be a long time waiting when now anytime some sort of "major news" looming on the horizon makes you automatically bet against it being DNF... :o

next step is for joe to come out and say it is not a dnf announcement.... :)

(blows up Tigger) "TTFN, scumbag!" :p

I believe it was a new Street Fighter game or something. Good series but "huge announcement", I don't know. I mean, I think there are like 10 of them. :p

[Komb.at]

Bears? Series? Propably Deer Hunter 12: Bear Attack ....

[Blue Lightning]

Could be HL2 Ep3...or even Bioshock 2

[ZuljinRaynor]

Here is the stupid bear thing.

http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/1668/bearthingtt5.jpg

[Damien_Azreal]

PC Gamer have burned us to many times with such adds.

Until proven wrong... this world exclusive announcement simply is not worth the attention.

[ZuljinRaynor]

PC Gamer have burned us to many times with such adds.


I think the Command and Conquer 3 one wasn't a burn. You (meaning the forums, not you Damien) all burned me on that one after I predicted right and then also had the issue to prove it. :tinyted:

The only other cryptic one I recall is the one prior to the Far Cry 2 issue. I don't think that's a burn. Most of the other issues inbetween they had first reviews and lists, not special annoucements.

[NutWrench]

Did Morrowind have bears?

[ZuljinRaynor]

Did Morrowind have bears?
Bloodmoon did I know; sure about vanilla though.

[jones1899]

Hmm part of a series? Has bears? Exclusive Announcement? I was thinking Guild Wars Two but thats been announced already. Also does part of a series imply more than 1 previous version? Hmm.

I REALLY hope its the new Indy game, since there has been NO info on that for two years now. Lets see...snakes, bugs, rats...and bears!?

Like someone else said, they have some exclusive announcement every other month, it's not supposed to be a really big deal.

[CommanderZx2]

How about a new Mechwarrior game? That would be great news and yes it had "bears". MechWarrior 2: Ghost Bear's Legacy was an expansion.

Yeah that's from my PC Gamer USA March Issue.

[JobivanHiob]

I guess if it would be DNF not only their finger get cut off :p

[ZuljinRaynor]

Well, we'll see soon. I might get the next issue in one to at most three weeks.

[JobivanHiob]

Well, we'll see soon. I might get the next issue in one to at most three weeks.

then let us know please! :)

[boglito]

I know magazines pull these stunts regularly, and it is always craptastic, but I just can't help to get my hopes up... Not really believing the duke is quite here yet, but just any awesome game would do.

[Destructor]

Red Alert 3.

[jimbob]

The sims 2, Wildlife expansion.

[Mr.Fibbles]

The sims 2, Wildlife expansion.

I believe that. Sadly, that is likely.


How about Stephen Colbert: The Game?
Wait, not in a series. . .

[Superczar]

Apparantly, as you even forget whether there was even a thread about it! :D :p

[psychic_psychotic]

Discovery Channel Presents, Man Vs. Wild: The Game.

You play as Bear Grylls as you attempt to escape from mildly dangerous situations.

A button: Squeeze water out of cow turd
B button: Run dramatically in slow motion
Right trigger: Perform ridiculous stunt for no reason
Left trigger: Make character say "This COULD.. save your life.."
Pause button: Warp straight to pre-booked hotel, half a mile away.

I can't wait.

[jimbob]

you forgot "All alone. in the middle of no-where, now with 3 awesome camera operator crews. and a make-up artist."

[ryche]

Don't worry, I will. :)

[slapnutz]

Apparently its a hunting game.

That was kinda my point. I vaguely remember there being a thread, but I don't remember what the huge announcement actually was beyond a bunch of people saying, "That's it?"

[big fat lazy]

The last few threads like this that I remember were about SimCity Societies, Street Fighter 4 and Medieval 2

Maybe it's Stalker Clear Sky. Didn't the first game have bears in it?

[Daveman]

My guess is Guild Wars 2. They hyped its development a few months back and said it was closer than expected. Its release is probably quite close now.

[sawn_off]

GUN had a couple bears, thought there was a sequel going for that.

But what about Alan Wake? Each game's supposed to be like a show season, and isn't wildlife supposed to be part of the game?

[Yatta]

I'm getting tired of all these "huge announcements." Talk about the boy who cried wolf.

Though I think PC Gamer already lost all its credibility when it gave Doom 3 an undeservingly high rating.

I'm sticking to 3D Realms for an announcement. I think they'd tell us before they leave it to some magazine.

[X-Vector]

"Not us."

[The Deadsider]

Duke Canuckem. Which has the Royal Canadian Mounted Bear Police.

[Kev_Boy]

Oh, gawd, Carmageddon would look absolutely gorgeous now.. in that dark sadistic kind of way anyhow. Jeeze, kinematic ragdolls, real physics simulations on the cars, and the overall detail.. just, wow.

Awesome :D

[Karthik]

Hmm..never heard of this Ruxpin.

[HazMat]

it is Teddy Ruxpin. He was like one of the first talking teady bears that came out around 1985 I think. His eyes moved and shit while he talked and he played tapes. he was a heavy fuc*er and if you dropped him on your foot you would be knowing about it.

[avatar_58]

Haha Teddy Ruxpin. :D I used to watch the cartoon.

[8IronBob]

Lemme guess... Smokey the Bear has a "Prevent Forest Fire" simulation game. :D
...and Teddy Ruxpin's his distant cousin that Smokey didn't know about.

[Dave-ros]

I wonder if it'll be better than the Smokey the Bear "game" Bart Simpson played...

"Only WHO can prevent forest fires?"
(Bart presses "YOU" button)
"You pressed YOU, meaning ME; that is incorrect. The correct answer is YOU!"

[Damien_Azreal]

I don't really care about review scores.... PC Gamer gave Doom 3 a high rating, because the reviewer loved the game. The review score was his personal opinion... that's all any review really is.

I stopped reading PC Gamer due to the bad decisions made to the magazine over the years. They've lost all the credible writers they had (except for Chuck), issues now are barely 50 pages... and I have issues from 1999 that were almost 200.
Short, paragraph reviews that don't really give you any insight.... and half the issue now is simply adds.

PC Gamer used to be great... but are steadily getting worse and worse. And remember Zuljin... this is simply my personal opinion. ;) You can like them all you want. :)

[Daveman]

The only reviews I give any credence are Eurogamer reviews.

[ZuljinRaynor]

I stopped reading PC Gamer due to the bad decisions made to the magazine over the years. They've lost all the credible writers they had (except for Chuck).

They still have Desslock and Andy Mahood giving in reviews and columns.

Not all of them are short. The big titles definately have big ones, like Bioshock and Oblivion did. Orange Box as well. It's usually the games you never heard of that get small reviews.

But most of it is due to diminishing requests for magazines since mostly everything is online.

[Danule]

its probably some bear hunting game.

It's those reviews I look forward to some times. I know highly expected, big name games will get a few pages for their review... but sometimes I want a decent sized review with some depth for the no-name game.

[Kev_Boy]

The only reviews I give any credence are Eurogamer reviews.

The guys that gave Max Payne a measly 6/10?

If it's something stupid, it still won't compare to the undeserved "Nobody knows what it is, but it's going to revolutionize transportation!" hype of the Segway.

"Hey! Bear ****er... do you require assistance?"

I shouldn't have to listen to a podcast to get decent reviews and such from a magazine. ;)

[ZuljinRaynor]

I shouldn't have to listen to a podcast to get decent reviews and such from a magazine. ;)

They don't do reviews. They do it weekly so they have more news and its more in depth. They got listener questions and its more fun. It's kinda like an extension. The reason the magazine is getting smaller and smaller and filled with more ads is because of demand.

[Damien_Azreal]

Not my point.

The podcast won't fix my issues with the magazine. Small reviews, lack of content... and so on. The podcasts don't fix that... and they are not for me. I've listened to them before, no thank you. :)

[ZuljinRaynor]

I never said it does fix the issues, I just said it's more in-depth with some news.

[luke88]

the inside scoop <Image>
I do hope youre not slagging off FunLabs. One of my all-time favourite games was developed by them (Secret Service). A proper sequel to that (Razor Unit doesn't count) would be heaven.
Back on topic, knowing magazines nowadays, it's probably a game you'll forget about in minutes (as other people have previously implied).

[HazMat]

Huh? I thought we were talking about how pc gamer cries wolf every issue. Like they are the only ones who can tell us about the next ultimate game but yet the game that was top secret ends up being shit.

[Malgon]

Another PC Gamer exclusive! :doh:

Iirc it wasn't anything special the last time around.

[The Cool One]

don't say anything 3drealms, otherwise you might break somebody's spirits and I won't be able to organize bets.

[bobthefish]

i stopped subscribing to pcg cause the mags always showed up like 2 weeks late, and i never got the bonus disks as advertized.
but mainly, i hated reading it 2 weeks late, so w/e.

[Daveman]

That's weird, I got mine before they went on shelves, and it always came with the disk. Of course, I never used the disk, but still!

I unsubscribed because I moved to school and because they were usually really late on most reviews. It's not too bad, but I can't help but feel they were a little generous with Crysis. I mean, yeah, it was a little free-roaming, but it still had really wonky AI a lot of the time.

[ash678]

There are two versions of subscriptions. One with the cd and one without. Perhaps somehow when you filled out your's, it got marked for no cd. :confused:

I stopped my Pc Gamer subscription for when I went into the military I had 4 months I wasn't going to read it then I just got used to not having the subscription and just reading whatever article at the bookstore ;)

That and they have sure been getting slimmer over the years. I still have ones from 1998 or around then that were big FAT 200+ page magazines not full of ads . Shame :(

[ZuljinRaynor]

I got started my subscription like 2 years ago and got issues (with discs) always 2 weeks or so before they went on sale on newsstands.

[Aegeri]

There's bears in mass effect? Do they chew off your arm while you try to solve the puzzle locks?

Surely you are not slagging off biowares deep, complex and genre pushing opening locks minigame that requires, not just one, but four different kinds of button presses within around 1-2 seconds of one another to acomplish successfully.

Say it ain't so!

[ryche]

Perhaps it's a game for this

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tin_Man_%28TV_miniseries%29

[Monkey Butler]

Maybe it's an "exclusive" review of that new Lost game. It's technically part of a series, and it involves [polar] bears...

EDIT: Oh, wait, it's an announcment of a new game, right? Well...maybe it's Lost: The Game 2...maybe not.

[Skunk Works]

They're announcing that they're becoming Console Gamer

Thats the reason they are TOP SECRET!

[Zombie_Boy]

Nah, knowing PCGamer its probably an annoucement to bring back The Vede!

[Echo Black]

Perhaps it's not Daikatana 2. It could be a quite a few others.

Big Rigs 2: Racing Unlimited
Trespasser II: EXXXtreme
E.T. Part II: Alien Unleashed
Bomberman: Act Zero TWO - The Quickening
Shaq Fu: Source
Bubsy 3D Returns - Chaos Dimension
Brute Force 2: Champion Edition

[Inanimate Carbon Rod]

It's probably a new Star Trek video game.

[Steve]

It's probably a new Star Trek video game.

That's my bet.

[hanged_man]

i have a feeling that its the new star wars game and it will ported to the pc

It's probably a new Star Trek video game.

Yeah, but with BEARS!

Do you mean this John West Salmon (http://youtube.com/watch?v=N7k5DpLnV_M) advert? :p

[SpamViking]

I hope it's a game with Uwe Boll, and you play a bear that gets to maul him.
Unfortunately he'd then turn it into a lame movie with Burt Reynolds, Ray Liotta, and John Rhys Davies as "The Bear".

[X-Vector]

No, that's Orangepants vs. Grizzly.

Yeah, but with BEARS!

Well... in the past PC Gamer has done these world exclusive hype things and put pictures up that had nothing at all to do with the actual story.

Could be a similar thing here.

I'm sure that either Sims 1 or 2 had bears, one of them did for sure. They would go up to your garbage can and rape it basically.

But this thread has gone from stupid to retarded. :tinyted:

Well we have a lot further to go before we reach the ridiculous-ness of this "Huge Announcement".

~Amakou~

[ZuljinRaynor]

Not really. That was done on the first page.

[Bludd]

GTA4 multiplayer?

[big fat lazy]

PC Gamer didn't even say it was a "huge announcement", I don't know why the hell everyone's making a big deal out of this, again.

They have exclusives all the ******* time, it's not meant to be some huge thing.

[jimbob]

the sega Game gear is making a comeback!

[JobivanHiob]

I guess it's SIMS 3
because there were some clues in the latest Sims 2 Addon.

[ZuljinRaynor]

If it's Sims 3, then I, for one, am pumped to read what they're gonna do. I'll be pissed I'll have to get a new game instead of the things being added to Sims 2 but I'll be happy anyway since I'm a fan of the Sims 2.

[Tang Lung]

I think it's GW2. If it's something that isn't announced yet..then I think it's a new Lula : Sexy Empire game.

*crosses fingers*

[Mr.Fibbles]

Involving bears?

[Karthik]

Involving bears?

You meant breasts, right?:p

[Mr.Fibbles]

bearish breasts? :p

I foresee some RPG or RTS where bears are there, but not essential.
Wait! What about:

Looks like it's Red Alert 3 (http://ve3d.ign.com/articles/news/36680/Red-Alert-3-Announced).

[0marTheZealot]

meh, releasing any RTS game this close to SC2 is just foolhardy. CnC:RA3 will be DOA for multiplayer.

[Mr.Fibbles]

bears in Red Alert? How does that work out?

[Karthik]

bears in Red Alert? How does that work out?
Mind controlled bears?

I dunno, but historically, the Great Bear or Red Bear is one of Russia's iconic symbols.

[Steve]

Red Alert 3? Oh hell yeah :)

[Mr.Fibbles]

Maybe the "bear" is a tank or vehicle. . .

[avatar_58]

Haha another C&C. Boy, that's about as surprising as the Spore expansion announcement.

I've only enjoyed the Red Alert part of the Cnc series. So this is good news for me ;)

[sawn_off]

The Bear in Russia is just like the Bald Eagle in America.

That's all I've got to support this. Red Alert has Russians right?

[Echo Black]

This is actually pretty huge. :) I love RA. PC Gamer delivers for once!

[Daedolon]

So it was the RA 3 announcement?

[Stense]

Surprisingly good announcement in my opinion.

[HazMat]

Uh...wtf?

Could you tell us what it was or are you talking about something else now? This thread just took a turn and I am lost now so what game is it?

[gt1750]

It's Red Alert 3
