GDC 2009: Keighley: Big Announcement is Multiplatform

GOONL!NE: "Another update from Geoff Keighley on his Twitter, everyone thought that a new Zelda for the DSi was the big surprise he was referring to.

Nope, not in a million years. It'll be going down tonight and it is multiplatform."

[TheColbertinator]

Halo 4 for PS3,360 and DS confirmed XD

[Johnny Cullen]

MEGATON OF THE BIGGEST KIND!

[Max Power]

ps3 version out sells xbox version, hell freezes over and pigs learn to fly. wink ;)

[Dark_Vendetta]

Damn that'd be a "FFXIII going to 360" like surprise

[ThichQuangDuck]

Would be so amazing on now next gen systems bring it on unite america in the attack of the soviet union on America

Eidos make this come out
or possibly

Splinter Cell Conviction finally or
Assassins Creed 2

[solideagle1]

Metal Gear Solid 5?

thanks

[gaffyh]

Ok it's a megaton announcement, and it's multiplatform.

Let's see it's either:

Mass Effect 2 coming to PS3, OR Alan Wake coming to PS3

Could also be MGS4: Subtitle (or MGS5 for 360/multi), but I don't see why that would be announced today, when Hideo has a keynote tomorrow

[jackhammer06]

Most probably announcement of Call Of Duty:Modern Warfare 2.

[Freak of Nature]

Kingdom hearts 3?

Or a real coming out party for Beyond good and evil 2 or assassins creed 2?

And in my dreams Oddworld Inhabitants unveiling of Citizen siege...

[Perjoss]

Multiplatform? nobody here will be interested, what will all the fanboys gloat about? I guess there will eventually be an obligatory 360 vs ps3 comparison video! or a top 10 reasons why <insert name of game in question here> is better on 360 (or ps3).

MARK MY WORDS!

[Rampant]

Unless it's a former PS/Xbox exclusive.

[Man_of_the_year]

FF XIII Versus going on the 360.

[Beast_Master]

Or are you all gonna be like Human Torches? Always Flammin!

Here are some.

GTA 5 (or whatever they call it) a disk based game?

MGS5 made offical-- not likely with Kojima's keynote tommorrow.

Assasins Creed 2-- Highly likely!

Crysis annouced for consoles-- Low-- they would have annouced it with the Cry3 engine tech demo.

Some old game francise gets a remake or sequel-- 99% likely!

[morganfell]

Real guesses? Here's one. Gears of War 2 new SP campaign that will also appear on the PS3 version of Gears of War 2.

Gears 2 is running on the PS3 at Epic. Why? Your guess is as good as mine but they have it running with the Gamespy middleware for multiplayer and they are addressing bugs. Why? They normally use the U3 engine for PS3 R & D but in this case they have the menus, splash screens, SP and MP structure running. If it is coming I don't expect the announcement until E3 but it still has to be considered a possibility for tonight.

It isn't Metal Gear related because Kojima will likely produce that game and he stated at GDC that no new game announcements will be coming relating to his work until E3.

[Chubear]

It's definitely some PS2 exclusive game that's now multiplat this gen. The best MS fanbase could hope for is to announce MGS4 but quite honestly, this wouldn't be much for the PS3 fanbase to look at.

Most have thoroughly enjoyed the game and couldn't care less if MGS4 was launching on the Xbox in Christmas this year or sometime next year. They're looking for the new stuff.

Bottom line, it'll be some multiplat game that wasn't multiplat last gen with promise of exclusive DLC. I'd put $10 on it.

... failing that it'll be some exclusive from Rare that MS will want it's fanbase to HYPE TO HELL like it's the ultimate second coming. Something like perhaps Killer Instinct.

[Beast_Master]

Officially not the annoucement!

http://ps3.ign.com/articles...

IGN is reporting that Kojima has confirmed he is working on a project but it will not be reveiled until E3!

So that one is off the table.

@Morganfell: I will believe it when I see it. I know you believe what you say but I just don't see how Gears could come to PS3 if Microsoft is/was the Publisher. I admit though I don't know what the stipulations are with Epic and Microsoft or what loopholes could exist. I could see Epic putting out another cover system 3rd person shooter game franchise, but it would lack Marcus and Dom.

[rucky]

I am going out on a limb here and say "Duke Nukem Forever CONFRIMED!!!"

[ottoenie]

don't know, but is there a possibility it could be the new need for speed, since keith munro said there was a 4th in development, i really hope so.
(btw, please don't spam me or anything, i am just asking a simple question.)

[Beast_Master]

I don't think it would be NFS, it isn't exactly a title that people would be excited to see, I know that NFS: Shift is creating alot of buzz but I think that EA is concentrating on hyping that one, before they announce the new one.

[GiantEnemyCrab]

Why does this have to be a 360/PS3 thing?

Could if be Alan Wake for 360 and PC? Or even Mass Effect 2 for 360 and PC.

Isn't that considered multiplatform as well?

My guess is CoD:MW2

[morganfell]

If Keighley said Multiplatform he was being very specific. 360 owners can get their hopes up it's some PC/360 announcement but I don't think Keighley would have phrased it Multiplatform because he knows if one console is left out then there is going to be a huge backlash branding him inaccurate or a liar.

I would say the odds are about 75% it will be an Ubisoft title (GRAW 3 is under development as well as Assassin's Creed 2) or Mass Effect 2will be shown and it will be both consoles and PC. One note about GRAW 3, it's completely 3rd person closer to SOCOM in appearance and is less techy with a grittier take on combat.

I'll say either Mass Effect 2 or Assassin's Creed 2.

[morganfell]

@ Beast Master. I am just saying they have it running on the hardware. Offer me an alternative reason and I will buy it. Remember, Jade Empire was published by MS and then a different publisher for the PC.

And be very clear. Epic owns the IP, not MS.

But it is running there and they have taken the trouble to put in multiplayer. Why? All I am saying is why? Also why would there be a sticky on the internal forum for people in the Unreal Developer's Network that says, "Do not ask for copies of Gears of War 2 on the PS3. We are only providing copies of games that have shipped to retail."

I will take any other logical answer. And this isn't me "believing" it is running on PS3 hardware. It is running.

[morganfell]

Well it's COD MW2

http://twitter.com/geoffkei...

"Stay tuned - GDC awards close with a surprise trailer, which will be online immediately after. And yes, Infinity Ward is here."

[yz250]

quit playin both sides od the fence. you are a fat boy like dark power.

stephen u suck

[panasonic23]

omg what game have ms stole now.

[JeffGUNZ]

That sentence is written so poorly, it's just pathetic.

EDIT: How can you disagree, that means you think that sentence was written in proper grammatical form, which it clearly wasn't.

[Pennywise]

Jeff, leave him alone... at least he used more than one word! lol

His comments usually consist of: Awesome, nice, sweet, cool, etc.

[Beg For Mercy]

Hate to say this but i think its metal gear solid related :0
The Metal gear Series is the last thing MS Hasn't Stole from sony

Edit-@Kionic-MGS5 would qualify because it has the series has been exclusive to ps3 so far this gen so it could be a stolen exclusive that's now a multiplat

[KingKionic]

no...when someone takes a exclusive its not multiplatform

[Major_Tom]

Why would Sony let go a PlayStation mascot. some people aren't using their brains here but it is the open zone.

[II-Reaper-II]

As much as I would like to say Panasonic is wrong i think hes right unfortanetly.I hope its not Metal Gear comin to 360 ill just die!!!!

[morganfell]

Multiplatform announcement is possibly (possibly) the new IP Epic has been working on that they haven't told anyone about. Yes I know it's in development but I do not know exactly what it is only that it isn't Gears or UT related.

[PirateThom]

Mass Effect 2... ;)

[Johnny Cullen]

I want to have your babies if your prediction comes true XD

[Ausbo]

he probably means a new game. Announcing mass effect 2 multiplatform isn't a big announcement i think we all know it will eventually come. He is talking about a megaton so it will have to be a new game.

[PirateThom]

Meh, these guys always go over the top with these announcements. I'm fairly certain the announcement will happen, it'll be something stupid and we'll all go back to playing Zeebo.

[rhood022]

I could see that. Especially with the "no information on Mass Effect 2" line from Bioware instead of an outright denial.

Who knows if that'll be a megaton announcement. I mean, most people expect it already and may not be surprised IF that is the news.

[Why dis]

Final Fantasy Versus or MG4 on 360 or something along those lines.

[Chuk5]

I can see the game being modern warfare 2 considering it's multiplatform.

[JeffGUNZ]

That's what I am thinking, a debut trailer for COD4MW2.

[SupaPlaya]

the most logical choice.

Wild guess would be Devil May Cry 5!

[Trey4Lyfe]

i'll also go with CODMW2

[Giriath]

It's very possible, even more so now that they've launched their website.

[SRuN4]

If you follow Keighley's twitter you could pretty much piece this together last night with his tweets about the IW guys. Especially the comment "What brings you guys to GDC?", pretty obvious after that.

[solidjun5]

I mean a trailer was to be shown eventually. If it is COD:MW2 information then Jeff should've toned it down a bit. But hey, I could be wrong.

Jack Tretton might come out with a Mass Effect 2 tattoo on his arm.
hmmmm...nah.

[DixieNormS]

that my friends would be a megaton.

[Sarcasm]

Logical choice list:
COD4MW2
Crysis for PS3/360
Mass Effect 2

Don't know what else.

Illogical Fanboy Guesses:
Killzone 2 for 360
God of War III for PC
Halo 6 for PS3

[Ko_Uraki]

ZOE 3

[MegaMohsi]

If it's a surprise, I can't see it being CODMW2, we already know that game is coming out right?

MGS 5?

[JeffGUNZ]

Yeah, but it's probably just a trailer, which I figured would be out by now.

[djal87]

i was thinking about MGS 5 also.

[MegaMohsi]

All of the PS3's big exclusives are 1st/2nd party so MS couldn't have "stole" anything

[Johnny Cullen]

I VOTE ZONE OF THE ENDERS 3!

(even if it does feel more suited to the PS3 then a multiplat release, I dont care, I JUST WANNA BLOODY SEE IT!)

[Unicron]

Metal Gear Solid 4 - Subsistenanublimationance.

[TheColbertinator]

Hahahaha bubbles!

[heyheyhey]

Timesplitters 4?

PLLEEEAAAASEEE!!!!

...how about Crysis on consoles?

[WhittO]

Maybe Assasins Creed 2 ?

If MGS5 if in development, its 98% certain to be multi-plat, MS would never let that one go again, they prob offered a stupid amount of money for MGS4 but instead agreed to MGS5 multi-plat!

[heyheyhey]

Assassins Creed 2 is a good one

[Ps_alm3k]

Hell no, that is not going to go multi....
Im sending out my ninjas now to stop this madness if ever true..

[jay2]

Crysis 2 for consoles and PC.

[360RRODFIX]

Keighley looks like homo hungry for c..k on that pic.

[Giant_Enemy_Sackboy]

the website has just gone live and is the only logical multi platform announcement i can think of.

[lalapin0810]

then it's not big surprise ><a

[rhood022]

Well, with the way things are going this gen, it could be all the stuff listed, or:

The long awaited (whether realistic or not) "FF Versus" multiplat announcement.

However, I'd peg an announcement like that (IF it happens) for TGS or E3.
-------------
Otherwise, I'm gonna say: Splinter Cell Conviction

[Zeus Lee]

If you're a true gamer then you would want Metal Gear Solid to be made for the Xbox 360.

No sense in Ps3 owners being the only ones to have a AAAA experience this gen.

[TheColbertinator]

Stealth trolling FTL

[odisho68]

if i had a 360 i'd want it to be on my console too...let's face it multiplatform is becoming the new standard... developers have to make money and the best way is to make the game multiplatform

p.s. = mgs4 is the main reason i chose to keep my ps3 and to sell my 360 so if it did go multiplatform that would suck for that reason only....but on the other hand at least i'll have God of War 3, Uncharted 2, Killzone 2, heavy rain, infamous and many many more to play

[Ko_Uraki]

=)

[jackdoe]

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 does indeed seem reasonable. If it was indeed a new Metal Gear game, then it wouldn't go live tonight as Kojima's presentation is tomorrow.

[matt1991]

it could be that duke nukem game? but im hopeing its cod mw2

[Myth]

is what im thinking

[Kratos19]

It's either Mass Effect 2 to PS3 or MGS4 to 360. Kojima's keynote is tomorrow so the former is more likely. Don't really care either way.

[Cyrus365]

Metal Gear Solid 5, considering it's Kojima is giving a talk at GDC right now, or in the next little bit.

[jackdoe]

Actually, Kojima is giving a talk tomorrow. So it probably isn't Metal Gear related as this announcement will come out today.

[butterfinger]

Keighley said the announcement would be in 6 or 7 hours, and that was over an hour ago.

[Aclay]

Since this huge announcement is supposed to be happening later on today and Kojima's Keynote is Tommorrow, then I think MGS4 on 360 (the rumor that will never die) and MGS5 announced as multiplatform at GDC can definantly be ruled out.

I think it's Mass Effect 2, the announcement of a new sequel, or a new IP.

[DragonWarrior46534]

Battlefront 3? I would love to see ZOE3 though.

[odisho68]

kingdom hearts 3 - multiplatform (damn it i just want it to be announced already)
mass effect 2 - multiplatform
mgs5 - multiplatform
versus 13 - multiplatform
epic's new game - multiplatform

if its not any of the above and if he's referring to call of duty or assassins creed then that is the most worthless "big" announcement i've ever heard of

but ehh i guess it doesn't matter what it is cuz all of us r going to be able to enjoy it

[butterfinger]

CoDMW2 coming out next week? Would that still be considered a big announcement? lol.

[odisho68]

lol that would piss me off more than excite me....since all my money went towards killzone 2, resident evil 5 and street fighter 4

[Ashton]

one of these three.

most probably CODMW2

but that s already announced multiplatform .It wouldnt be a surprise announcement.

[Rayko]

SHENMUE 3 PLSSSSSSSSSS

[Reibooi]

That would be a dream and one HELL of a bombshell if that was the case.

Sadly however Sega has been pretty adamant at disproving anything new in the Shenmue universe so I think that will have to remain in our dreams for now.

[xyxzor]

Its either Mass Effect 2 Or Kingdom Hearts III. I would bet money on it. Is it just me or has GDC been really tame. I am waiting for some big annoncements havent really seen any.

[Reibooi]

I highly HIGHLY doubt it's Kingdom Hearts 3. Nomura-san is FAR to busy with his other projects to take on another game at this point and he would never let someone else touch Kingdom Hearts considering it's his Brain child.

[Reibooi]

Call me crazy but I think it has to be something from either A) A franchise or B) A Big studio. Otherwise it will just be a announcement and not a megaton bombshell like it's being made out to be.

I mean no one really flips out when a new game is announced unless it's a sequel or it's from a well known developer. Logic tells me that it would be Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 but that as awesome as it could be would underwhelm quite a few people so I don't know if that would be what he is talking about.

[ajay_solidsnake]

Mass Effect 2 coming to PS3 OR new COD game or it could be a new game for PS360 from crytek...as simple as that

[MainstreamGamer]

If its CODMW2 then its a pretty useless announcement.

[Reibooi]

As I said it would underwhelm alot of people were this the case. However If it was Call of Duty I would assume they would show off the first game play or something along those lines but I guess the only thing we can do is wait.

Time Will Tell.

[DelbertGrady]

Rapelay for the Wii. *Anime girl screaming then silence* A shirtless, oiled up Miyamoto enters the stage wearing black leather gloves and a wiimote strap-on and begins violently humping the air.

[PirateThom]

The thing is, if people weren't getting built up for "Mass Effect PS3" and "Metal Gear 360", Call of Duty getting a release date/more info/gameplay trailer would be a big deal.

But, this is what gaming has become, unless it's "stolen", no one really seems to think it's big news.

Frankly, I'm hoping for Assassin's Creed 2 info!

[DelbertGrady]

I'd love me some Deus Ex 3 or Beyond Good & Evil 2.

[Skyreno]

Im guessing mass effect 2 for ps3 also

[heyheyhey]

to everyone saying COD:MW2...

NO!!!

it isn't an announcement (already has been announced) and it sure as hell isn't a surprise (or a very crappy one at that, a COD game each year is as certain as death, taxes or RROD)

considering all the buzz Crytek has been generating with their console-optimized engine... it's probably a game from them, maybe a Crysis port.. maybe not, but it won't be COD (if it is, it will be the lamest surprise ever)

[xc7x]

that wouldn't be a mega surprise,only a confirmation of what we already know

[umair_s51]

COD4MW2 info is very unlikely, it is not a surprise let alone a HUGE surprise. MGS5/ZOE3 will most likely be announced tomorrow, because Kojima said a while ago he will reveal his plan soon. Assassin's creed 2 is possible since it is shipping this fiscal year, but again it is not a HUGE announcement, we all know it is coming. Mass effects 2 going multi can be on the cards, but I don't think it is HUGE. I think it is FF7 remake, FF13vs or Gears 3 going multi, only time will tell.

[butterfinger]

said through IGN that his new game won't be revealed until e3. Scratch ZOE3 off the list of possibilities for tonight's announcement.

[Gambit07]

1080p HD Pong

[BigKev45]

Gears of War 3 for X360 & PS3.

[manwich25]

How about Half Life 2 Ep:3 and Portal 2 going multiplat from day 1

[Deviant]

..boring
these are meant to be played on the pc

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

Haha...

Gabe Newell working on a PS3 game?

I don't see it.

Then again, he made the PS2 version of Half-life.

[Myth]

Haze ODST for 360 and PS3

[Snatcher]

Let's hope. Let's f*cking hope.

[heyheyhey]

you might not be far off...

it might not be THIS particular announcement (not megaton for the mainstream)

BUT Koj is doing a keynote tomorrow and i remember him saying he was interested in doing a Snatcher re-make

[xc7x]

the moment multiplatform was said :-/

[Major_Tom]

Lol @ MGS on 360. Rumor is worse than Gears of War on PS3.

[butterfinger]

on PS3.

[Digital Commando]

It's a stretch, but wouldn't that be awesome!

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

Personally, I'd rather have a Lord of the Rings game made by Bethesda. They'd be sitting on a gold mine!

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

Possibilities:

- COD:MW2
- FFVII
- Kingdom Hearts III
- New Epic IP
- Mass Effect 2
- Crysis
- Half-life 2: Episode 3
- Quake 5???

[Deviant]

"- COD:MW2
- FFVII
- Kingdom Hearts III
"
.....nah

[OmarJA]

Splinter Cell Convication on the PS3...

[Maxie1992]

I think it is Call Of Duty MW2, all the teasing at Geoff's Twitter, eating with the guys from IW.......its obvious.
@Giant_Enemy_Sackboy
Do you have the link?, I am dying for info.

[rickybadman]

Duke Nukem Forever for PC and Xbox 360, dropping this winter.

[u got owned]

My guess is Mass Effect 2.

[MakoXL]

Maybe FFVII remake will be announced :P

[DaRk SlAyEr1458]

Its gonna be a shooter, I know that much.

[Munky]

COD:MW2 (or any shooter for that matter) + cross platform multiplayer....that would be dope

[u got owned]

That would be awesome , but i don't think it will happen.

[DMasta718]

Cross platform multiplayer for CODMW2 would take fanboyism to astronomical levels lol

[butterfinger]

saying that "The surprise does not happen on a panel".

[Bumpmapping]

I have a feeling it's Alan wake

[knowledge4lfe]

you guys gotta just stop blindly guessing. you gotta see whos on for tonight at gdc and come up with a logical guess. kojima is on for tomorrow so obviously its not metal gear related. anybody know who is on tonight????

[HydroUK]

fingers crossed for something on modern warfare 2

[siyrobbo]

i hope not, we all know thats coming, would love to see something new

[LostChild]

Marvel vs Capcom 2 remake
Final Fantasy VII remake
Monster Hunter Next-Gen
Going out on a limb: Jack and Dexter

[OOG]

id guess CoD MW2 just because the site went live.. somewhat...

[XLiveGamer]

- Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 - Reveal Trailer
- Assassins Creed 2 - Reveal Trailer
- Mass Effect 2 - Big fu**ing trailer

Wow we never guess that... NOT! :P

[rbluetank]

i would like to have the choices in gears1 back. i need a lag free mp game and all those clipping/bugging issues fixed. this is my stone cold lock of whats going to happen.. Tony Bruno babby!

[Renewman]

I'm just going to sit back and hopefully let the megaton roll over me so I can have a Freakazoid moment in my room.

[iceice123]

I'm sure it is just CoD:MW 2. Their site just launched for the game, it's pretty bare right now. It'll probably update with the trailer and screenshots. He did say the announcement wasn't from a panel.

[eliteowner12]

hmm maybe a game which hasn't been revealed yet? sigh.:( where is yakuza 3 for NA.. damnit.

[xdye017]

So will they only reveal a multi-platform game tonight? or will they make all there big announcments tonight?

[Chuk5]

anytime now

[Nodoze]

Technically it would qualify as multiplatform as it has already released for PS3. MS is desperate for something to show this year, and I am sure they have courted Konami with metric sh1t tons of ca$h. Since they have no real first party to speak of, they can only go after the PS franchises.

This is my guess, and I am sticking to it.

Kojima's panel discussion is titled making the impossible, possible. If I am not mistaken he did say MGS 4 on 360 would be impossible.

[Snatcher]

Kojima will announce a NEW GAME soon. MGS4 on Xbox 360 is not a NEW GAME, but a port, so it definitely is not MGS4 for the Xbox 360. So you are wrong my friend. I bet Kojima's new game will be Snatcher 2 or Zone Of Enders 3. MGS4 on Xbox 360 is not happening.

[Arnon]

Actually.. Kojima refers to any MGS game that has a extra title in it to be a new game. And honetly, it would make sense if MGS4 came to the 360, since MGS2 was on the original Xbox.

[ascendantofrain]

I have a gut feeling it is regarding Mass Effect/Mass Effect 2.

As per MTV's Multiplayer blog Twitter:

"Tracey: Readers, do you have any questions for BioWare's Ray and Greg? Let me know by 5pm PST/8pm EST. I'll try to get 'em in for you."

That seems to be in conjunction with what Keighley's been saying?

[DNAgent]

Especially if it's some garbage like Assassin's Creed 2. Big announcements from GT are like big announcements from S-E & Capcom. They always disappoint.

[JayX666]

COD, if its anything ellse ill die.

[ascendantofrain]

I have a gut feeling it is regarding Mass Effect/Mass Effect 2.

As per MTV's Multiplayer blog Twitter:

"Tracey: Readers, do you have any questions for BioWare's Ray and Greg? Let me know by 5pm PST/8pm EST. I'll try to get 'em in for you."

That seems to be in conjunction with what Keighley's been saying?

[Afterglow]

could be Bioshock 2 trailer

[Marquis_de_Sade]

Whereabouts is GDC taking place? I want to know what 6.30 is in GMT.

Edit: I didn't mean to reply to your comment, my bad.

[IQUITN4G]

Please let it not be MGS4 or 5

[Marquis_de_Sade]

It won't be.

[JeffGUNZ]

Do they mean 6:30 AM? Jesus Christ, I have been waiting all day, it better be gameplay for Modern Warfare 2, I hope this game looks breath-taking.

[shopsmartash]

ftw =)

[You Already Know]

I think Mass Effect 2 will be announced multiplatform in 3-6 months...

my gut tells me Assassins Creed 2....

[tdogchristy90]

marquis-de-sade....sorry if I butcher the name.

the GDC is in California here in the usa so going off of U.S. time it is standard mountain time here in the U.S.

[Marquis_de_Sade]

Thank you

[-EvoAnubis-]

So, what the dealio? I'm going with Assassin's Creed 2, Mass Effect 2, or something we just don't know about yet at all.

[Marquis_de_Sade]

Am I the only one who found the site name rather amusing? GOONL!NE....

[Afterglow]

7:21 PSTNow the GDCAs begin in earnest, with GDC event director Meggan Scavio and Game Developer editor Simon Carless introducing...what's this? A sneak peak at Infinty Ward's next game at the end of the show?

gamespot live blog: http://www.gamespot.com/new...

[The Captain]

http://www.joystiq.com/2009...

7:24PM Enough indie stuff – it's time for the major game development fat cats to pat themselves on their money-stuffed hump backs. Can we give up the populist thing yet? Alright, phew! We're treated to Tim Schafer's charming adventure game. Then, GDC director Megan Scavio and Gamasutra publisher Simon Carless take the stage to introduce the event. But what's this? They said they're going to be sharing a special unveiling courtesy of their friends at Infinity Ward, at the end of the show. Whoa, a first look at Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2?

[tdogchristy90]

Quoted from samespots coverage of the event....

"Now the GDCAs begin in earnest, with GDC event director Meggan Scavio and Game Developer editor Simon Carless introducing...what's this? A sneak peak at Infinty Ward's next game at the end of the show?"

Do ya'll think Infinity Ward is a clue to this mystery?

[butterfinger]

MTV Multiplayer has also confirmed on their twitter that Infinity Ward has something to announce. It's looking like a Modern Warfare 2 trailer.

EDIT: OK, Geoff Keighley just updated his twitter saying that the show is closing with a surprise trailer. Wonder what that could be... lol.

[drpepper6121]

geoff keighley twitter is updated with
"Stay tuned - GDC awards close with a surprise trailer, which will be online immediately after. And yes, Infinity Ward is here."

http://twitter.com/geoffkei...

[-EvoAnubis-]

That's it? We already knew about Modern Warfare 2. How the hell is that a big announcement?

Fail.

[digoutyoursoul8]

"gears of war 2 level announcement" i dont see how an already announced game thats coming in the next six months is a big deal.

poor show geoff. feel a bit let down as i was hyped for this aswell.

[queerbearandchicken]

and infinity ward is there, so, CODMW2 is pretty much confirmed as the announcement

[Skyreno]

i think is mass effect 2 ^^

[Marquis_de_Sade]

Truly yawnworthy.

[Chuk5]

We know MW2 is coming.Keighly's no fool he knows that.Think about it. It's obviously a feature. What feature could possibly be a gears 2-level announcement.Cough*cross platform play*cough

[Marquis_de_Sade]

Personally I don't understand the fuss surrounding cross platform online play.

Interesting that they seem to have dropped the Call of Duty prefix from the game.

[sarshelyam]

IF it was a multi-plat announcement AND Megaton was used as the adjective for the announcement...AND it's Call of Duty MW2...we all need to reevaluate our understanding of what a megaton actually is. Don't we all already know that not only is CoDMW2 coming but it will be multi-plat?

Jeff...don't disappoint.

Considering the guy knows Jade Raymond really well, It's obviously Assassin's Creed 2.

multi platform..... yawn

I think it's COD Modern Warfare 2 and its release and to be honest, that's the lamest "BIG ANNOUNCEMENT" ever. We already knew that MW2 was coming this fall and we already knew it was going to be a multiplatform and the trailer was nothing special and nothing big. I hope the big announcement is at Kojima's keynote.

a new COD game? What a surprise.....NOT!!! Really bored of these silly war games, that is all developers release today, Rainbow six, COD etc etc etc.

Wait, was the 'big' announcement meant to be the COD: MW2 trailer? Oh dear... that's tragic.

[TheOutsider]

It will be Guitar Hero 5!!! and it will have a mode to download your own favorite music in system to the game.with DLC of clothes, instruments and characters of real musicians.Rock on!!!

think about 1 million dead people in Iraq(mostly innocents) the next time you're playing a modern warfare game.
