I am at GDC right now with the Destructoid gang and Nick, Dale, and I just got out of a meeting with a publisher I am not supposed to talk about. In this meeting we got some hands-on time with the sequel to a game I am also not supposed to talk about. What is the point of this annoying, mysterious post, then? Well, if you guys are like me (and I know a lot of you are), you are going to be very excited about this announcement. Since I signed an NDA (non-disclosure agreement) I can’t talk about anything at all until next Tuesday, but I had to just express my joy somehow. That’s what a community blog is for, right? The confirmation of this sequel is not the big news (as rumors have already surfaced about its existence). What was extremely exciting was how new and different the game is from the original. All three of us were very pleasantly surprised. Do you have any guesses? I can’t wait to talk about it more next week. Since I am dramatic about everything, this is bound to come across as a disappointment to some. But I know a lot of you will be just as excited as I am. GDC 2008 FTW!

No, wait....what?
Anti-climatic FTW!
dead rising 2?
gears??
can't we have a subtle hint of some kind? It's not telling if we figure it our ourselves yeah? :)
YES!!! That's what we need!
FINALLY!!!
lolno.
Gears 2 plox.
With the addiction level cranked up to "Mainlining Heroin" levels.
- "The confirmation of this sequel is not the big news (as rumors have already surfaced about its existence)."
Betting since cliffy B's comments yesterday that that big news is gears 2, so what's this sequel then?
- "What was extremely exciting was how new and different the game is from the original."
It's a sequel so definitely NOT a remake.
- "All three of us were very pleasantly surprised."
Hmmmm, an 'amazing' sequel to a possibly average, underrated, or possibly forgotten game? Or something that news of a sequel of would not initially generate excitement until seeing the game itself?
So what sort of game fits this criteria?
(Like I guessed before) Dead Rising?
Ico or SOTC? (although thats a long shot, the games are amazing enough)
Chromehounds? (or mechassault?)
Killer instinct 3? (wishful thinking on my part)
Anyone else got ideas?
so now I'm guessing Galactrix or Puzzle Quest 2
(P.S. I love you, Chad, and I'm excited by this mystery surprise news.)
It fits the pleasantly surprised comment('cause it's good to see a sequel to a quality game), it fits the rumor comment (seeing as the story was left wide open for sequel potential and I heard somewhere they were making it), it fits the far off comment (no one has said it yet), it hits the let down comment (since some people only bought it for the Halo 3 beta anyway), and it hits the addictive comment on the head (orbs FTW).
What do I win?
When does the NDA expire?
Maybe Zack and Wiki
Oh I know, Madden 09??
Thats an awesome announcement Chad, you better not disappoint me.
Either that or Sony has announced Final Fantasy 14. I really thought they would stop at 13, colour me surprised.
touch Colette for me
Lesbian Imagery FTW.
