When is the next big game conference? I don't keep up on these.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, the 2013 VGX awards are now officially over."

*lights go black*

"FALLOUT 4"

I can hope!

In other words: Yes it's real. We just want it to be a surprise. So no comment, lol.

Leave surprises for Santa Claus okay? *shakes uncontrollably* Need... Fallout... now...

No, folks. I am not going to VGX. Bethesda is not showing/talking about anything at VGX. Just some PR meetings in LA. Take deep breaths.

Just some PR meetings in LA.

Just some PR meetings in LA.

Just some PR meetings in LA.

What exactly does that mean?

Any guesses?

Public Relations? IDK why it would be in LA though.

Wait isn't VGX in L.A?

Could it have been a hint at a "secret" press event ffor a tease of a new game?

or am I just sniffing the hypetrain fumes.

Terrible idea.

Ya it's in my lovely LA. Maybe some subliminal hints?

I tried looking up PR gaming and PR game events, but I got nothing useful.

There is a difference between going TO the VGX and announcing something AT the VGX and announcing something ON the VGX. As far as we know, they plan to appear on the show via satellite and announce it from their home offices.

Or maybe they plan to announce it at PAX East or E3 next year or something, if they don't want to announce it so far in advance of it's release this time around.

I was checking out BGS job listings and:

It appears to be mainly art & design departmants, which would mean they are probably only in concept art stage right now.

VGZ is being held in Los Angeles
this year.. LA

Pete Hines said they would be doing PR in LA that day

folks connect the dots

yes VGX is in LA

pete hines is playing with us

Looking at the job listing is always a good idea. But over the last two years we had a lot of sightings of different fields of proffesion and speculated about them. It's a bit late to do it now for the game that Bethesda is working on after Skyrim. I don't think this game is in the concept art stage. Also looking at your posted list there is everything in there from programmer, character artist (mostly meant as 3d artist), quest and level designer. It's pretty much the whole package. What's missing is writers btw. which where searched earlier .

I am still not sure about the wording of his tweet but I am no native speaker so... but if he means I shouldn't watch VGX because Bethesda won't show anything, (I am not interested in other games atm) then yes I will do it. This tweet was a pretty bad move in either case.

It would be cool if it was Bethesda that isn't showing Fallout 4 at VGX, and Obsidian is. But that's impossible

From GSTAF (our beloved chief here ) at neogaf would support these theory:

But it is more then unlikely. Thinking about what Obsidian is doing at the moment. Even if they have a bad record at taking on to much work at once...

Obsidian isn't a Bethesda Softworks subsidiary, they were just contracted for Fallout NV. But yeah, they've got too much on their plate to be thinking about another Fallout game.

How much is on Obsidians plate? I know the have South Park and that kickstarter game (forgot the name) but don't they have more projects?

That's why I posted it.

What I don't understand, is why they would go out of their way to take down rumors that they are gonna announce fallout 4 at the VGX, but have absolutely nothing to say about thesurvivor2299. So they can say they aren't gonna be at VGX to kill that rumor, but they can't say anything about that site? Hmm.

South Park, Project Eternity, and an unannounced Next Gen title.

Chris Avellone was also helping IneXile with Torment

An unannounced Next Gen title.. There is a chance I guess. I just hope if they are given the chance they are given enough time.

Look if your going to repost crap from a hoax, can you please at least post it in a normal sized font? thanks.
