No Beyond Good & Evil 2 at E3? Laaaaame photo

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.

To be fair they have far more important things to worry about like:

"Am I still relevant" Tom Clancy Stealth Game,
"Sitting on Benches Part 2: Feeding the Pigeons", and
"Movie Tie-in Ref:9483AD32-001"

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.

Cool, it seems like Splinter Cell is surfacing again. Can't wait to see how it evolved.

I remember reading about how Ubisoft won't be going into full BG&E 2development until the completion of Rabbids Go Home.

BG&E is pretty much the only remaining franchise left that Ubisoft hasn't ruined.

Maybe Ubisoft will announce a new Splinter Cell game or something. Cause the lack of BG&E2 stuff makes me sad.

I'm at work, if I had my PS3 here I would not be on here playing silly buggers with you Jim!

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.

You are so easy Jim. i've got to remember that when I want a rise out of someone you're the guy to come see! I got bored of Killzone myself. Maxed out the ranks and badges and couldn't really be arsed after that.

It's all about SOCOM and Metal Gear Online, mostly Socom though.

you sure you have a job choc cause in one of your other "comments" you said you were upset for spending over 200 quid on you console, that doesnt sound like someone with a job to be honest unless your job is cleaning your house for your parents.
