Wow funny, I was going to ask if there was a new pic to go with the 'reconfirmation'. At the least, its nice to hear about some of these long-cooking games that you might otherwise thought had disappeared into... DEVELOPMENT...HELLL HELL hell hel...
So does having pig men in your games mean it will take 10 years to make?
Did half life 2 have one i didnt see?

Michael?
Michel.
Get it right, Jim you racist. /jk
But i'd like to see this game done with UbiArt if possible. That'd be a really fucking pretty 3D game.
Anyway, people, GO BUY RAYMAN LEGENDS AND RAYMAN ORIGINS.

Great, I need to make time for all my hours playing FF Versus 13, so I will save room for this one and Half Life 3.
BG&E is my 4th favorite game of all time, so this is fantastic news. If it's as good as the first one, I'm happy to wait for it. The flip-side to that, of course, is if it's not that great, then everyone will be screaming bloody-murder.

"We create it first, then we’ll see what can run it. We don’t say 2013 because we don’t know when it will come. We’re working to create a great game and it needs more tech."
PC exclusive. We have your "more tech" right here right now.

BG&E2 and HL3 have been jerked me around for so long I don't get any pleasure from it anymore. It was nice at the start, being teased by them being promised release soon. but after so long I'm just tender and dry, and need some lotion.
Woohoo, just hope it don't turn out like DNF(yes it is a good game,even better than CoD, but the hype killed it).
@Jinx 01,
this is business so they're talking about platforms that, you know, are PROFITABLE.
i love the PC elitists who constantly claim how this and that projects that costs often over 50-60mln$ should be PC exclusive pointing to all those "great" success stories how PORT that cost 200-300k$ of a console game(with it's budget of 20-30mln$ that made money on consoles) made money that was spend on porting it to PCs back. the fact that developers are throwing a party when PC game made 200-300k$ while their budgets EXCEEDS 30MILLION$ is a joke.
if you're not Battlefield, Call of Duty or an MMO title you won't even manage to sell even 500k copies on PC.
BG&E2 already at this point cost probably over 10-15mln$ with it's long pre-production, several development stages. the game was in pre-production for over 3 years inside Ubisoft Montpellier and it gone through several different engines(including those that powered both reveal trailer and gameplay trailer which was actually their own engine built specifically for BG&E2). until late 2010, as was stated by Ancel, they were STIL working on an engine - one which now will have to be ported and optimized for future consoles. we're looking at another Assassin's Creed type of game - so yeah, PC exclusive? good luck with that. PC sales wouldn't even cover pre-production let alone nearly 5 years of active development it has already been in.

Yea, i don't see where the problem is. Release it for PC, check for feedback, release updated version for consoles. What is there to loose? You will know what players like, you'll know what to improve, you'll know what to fix. Developing for PC is cheaper, and if by God the game sucks, you won't spend 100 million dollars developing it for consoles and paying royalty fees to MS and Sony.
I know, i know, herp derp nuu generahcion exclusive for XboxSkynet and Metal GearStation 4!!

Sofik: this is patently false. Unprofitable games don't get followups; thus games like Crysis (several million sales), The Witcher 2 (at least 1-1.5 million), the Age of Empires series (over 10 million lifetime sales in a niche, smaller market), Wargame: European Escalation, Skyrim (sold the most copies on PC), etc. etc. should not have had followups - except, as it turns out, they were actually profitable. Surprise, surprise.
Put an end to your anti-PC elitism, sir.

I think that makes sense... I mean, as far as I know, the only way to make a game and Then figure out where it can go is to make it for pc.
Considering it is Ubisoft though, that seems a little strange to Me

I read this as "We're hoping the rumors of no used games for next-gen consoles is true and are holding the game back until that time".
It won't end up like DNF as long as it stays with Michel, I'm sure about this. I also find it extremely unlikely that it would be passed on. So yeah, it really just needs to come out.
But first, buy a few more copies of Rayman Origins so that you lot deserve this shining paradigm of Ubisoft's benevolence.
I only ever played BGE, recently. I bought the HD rerelease when it went on sale on XBLA. It was a good game, but I think a lot of people have it on such a high pedestal that they are setting themselves up for disappointment if this ever does come out.
Wow, that's so dumb. I mean, the tech exists when you use the PC! Beyond Good & Evil 2 wouldn't be a flop even if you just release it on a PC. All the poor suckers just have to wait for the release on the 'next gen' consoles but they would have to anyway.
Really, consoles now... I don't get it. PC gaming isn't as expansive as everyone thinks. The initial costs are high, yes. But after that you can just upgrade the stuff. Mostly it's the GPU so it's even easy to do.

Ya and have they confirmed that you can invert the Y axis? Or am I going to also miss playing the sequel because they cant add in the simplest of functions to accommodate peoples different play styles.
Terrific. Although it's gonna be like this. 6 years up the next gen cycle we're gonna look back at it and say. Man that game looks like shit. Not that it matters in any way what the game looks like, just a fun fact :) So stoked!
I won't believe it till its on store shelves -Ubisofts become very "carrot on a stick" with this game over this past generation..
I wonder if in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, it's not unusual to recycle teaser material from "ten thousand years ago".
Oh, you mean the next-gen consoles that either haven't even been announced yet or we don't even know all that much about yet? How convenient, Ubisoft.
They need more tech at this point in development hell? They can promise the moon for all I care, but where exactly are they getting the millions of dollars in funding for a next gen game when there are no specs for Xbox 720 or PS4 yet?! Ubisoft isn't exactly bustin' out at the bra with cash to spend on an R&D for a sequel to a game that was good but didn't sell very well. Furthermore, why did they put the cart before the horse and release a teaser when they had several more years of pre-development ahead of them? If they're taking all this time to make it the best game ever, it better damn well be aeons of leagues of light years better than the Zelda influenced ideas of the first entry!!!
