According to a writer at UGO, Ubisoft will not be showing Beyond Good & Evil 2 at E3 this year. You can get some Splinter Cell, Assassin's Creed 2 and Avatar, but if you're hoping to get some playable BG&E 2, then you're fresh out of luck.
When asked if there would be a showing of Beyond Good & Evil 2 at E3, Ubisoft's reply was curt and to the point: "We're not doing any BG&E stuff at E3." You can't make it much more plain than that, can you?
That said, we gamers are a hopeful lot, so let's just convince ourselves that Ubisoft is lying, and that plenty of Beyond Good & Evil 2 news will flow from E3 like sparkling spring water. While we're getting our hopes up, let's also pretend that the game won't play like this video.
Who knows? Maybe Ubi simply means that there won't be a playable version of the game, or maybe it truly means there won't be anything at E3. We've heard very little about BG&E 2 ever since the official announcement of the game, and I'm getting very concerned about whether or not Ubi will stuff it up like it did with Prince of Persia. I guess we can do nothing but wait and see.

It's tough being Ubi. I don't know how they can keep up seeing as they already release their games half finished and buggy.
BG&E is pretty much the only remaining franchise left that Ubisoft hasn't ruined.
also jim brings teh lols.
Not because I'd be fucking one of my 4 USB slots, because I'd be loving one of those AAA-Grade games you errorbox fanboys miss out on.
All in jest Jim, you know i only come here to while away the work day arguing with you lot. That picture did remind me of you though..... and your xbox is shit.
(I just can't help myself)
I am so envious of your AAA games. It's not like I don't play Killzone 2 every day.
It's all about SOCOM and Metal Gear Online, mostly Socom though.
