I'm still lenient to The Elder Scrolls V: The Shadow Realm.

And I was going to say they would announce it via a telescope, camera, and a giant banner in Mars.

In Mars? Man, they must have spent at least 10 more dollars to pull that one off.

Anyone know when that next issue of Game Informer is?

I'm sticking with The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim for now.
^_^

They usually reveal the cover on their site within the first few days of the month, and subscribers get it a day or two later. So sometime between the 1st and 10th day of the month for subscribers.

Good catch. I guess that means they can still make the announcement with a banner on mars. oop, not anymore.

I think the GI issue is due beginning/middle of april. Oddly I got the april issue a week or so ago. I must be really, really special.

The April edition is really the March edition. Magazines are always a month ahead. I'm pretty sure April is actually the pull date, because when the month of April actually comes around, the May edition will be out.

Ahh, so i'm not special, just stupid . Thanks for clearing that up.

Be it April or be it May,
We well see The Elder Scrolls one day.

Be it October or be it November,
TESV will be a game to remember.

Combo breaker ..........
Anyhow I don't think the next GI will be TESV though. But hey you never know.

I'm going to the studio home and I'm going to pretend to be an unassuming delivery boy. I shall then ask to use the washroom, and apologize profusely. I shall then hide in the washroom until the coast is clear. I shall then leave the room and duck behind a couch. I shall then use stealth skills I learned in Oblivion to find my way into the programmers heaven. And retrieve the information that we all so badly desire.

The blood price is in effect for this quest.

Capital!

In a universe where time is a sentient, individual being, that isn't so unreasonable. Let's say Dagon finallt smashes the Kalpa down to it's components, and so it starts to get eaten, then the hero kills Auriel, and then you get thrown through a Dragon Break to before Dagon reduced the Kalpa and have to stop him from doing so.

I'll leave you some invisibility potions in a dead drop.

About this GameInformer.com update: Are we then assuming that the 'update' that will blow our minds is the cover of the next magazine? If the cover is unveiled between the 1st and 10th... that's still a long wait. Do they ever have exclusive interviews and previews on their website? Perhaps a playthrough of Red Dead Redemption, or Super Mario Galaxy 2. There are a lot of highly anticipated games right now that could classify as 'mind blowing' if GI had an exclusive look at them.

That's true, but that wouldn't likely be exclusive type of stuff. Mario Galaxy 2 is all over IGN, and so is red dead Redemption. and while IGN is generally full of crap, that still means it wouldn't be exclusive cover story type stuff.

But I don't know, I guess we'll see.

I'm sorry to burst bubbles, but the "mind blowing" statement from someone from GI is not substantial enough to expect ANYTHING TES-related. It could be, but is more likely not. If perhaps we discover a countdown [or insert any hype-generating device] in the next couple weeks on elderscrolls.com, then we have reason to expect this to be related.

Otherwise, this really doesn't deserve extended discussion here.

I agree. If I had to make a guess, I would say the announcement is about Gears of War 3. Edge recently said they heard from a very reliable source that it's going to be announced next month.

But you never know.

Like I said...




Idk, I'm thinking more along the lines of Fall for an announcement. Because come summer, its going to be pretty crowded what with all those announcements at E3. Plus, I think I remember that Bethesda likes to do things in the fall (at least when it comes to releases, I don't remember about annoucements, but I think so...).

Damn guys, way to blow a joke way out of proportion. I never seriously thought that tweet had anything to do with TESV, I thought I made that pretty clear with the "baseless speculation" comment. Geez...

Ahem...i don't usually post, but you do realize that you are literally fanning the flames here, you were here long enough Antibody to know what happens when you give a comment like that to rabid speculators :homestar:

Yeah I looked into the statement about it spanning the time between the games. While that means that it may not be hard evidence, it is still pretty solid. I mean the publisher must've heard that from somebody. I think its still evidence, just not as strong.

Plus there is only really three choices: TES V happens before The Infernal City, after The Infernal City, Or perhaps during the plot of it. I think after sounds most reasonable. I'm sure that Bethesda is probably using The Infernal City's plot to set up the plot of the next game. Do any significant changes take place in Tamriel as a whole by the end of the novel? Because if so thats probably what the novels were meant to accomplish, and thusly why they had the novels made. They probably had a good plot set up and didn't have the background of the main story established and created the framework of The Infernal City to set up the plot elements needed. Oter companies release a gameboy game, but a book seems far more cool IMO.

Substitute speculation with cookies and you get http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5thpdEEE-DE#t=2m25s?

Lol...that makes a lot of sense 'cause I thought it seemed somewhat out of character for you. I honestly didn't catch the sarcasm in your post - but then again I was reading quickly.

But yeah...throw something in the ring that looks remotely plausible and watch the feeding frenzy ensue!

After seeing what happened with my little attempt to lighten the mood, I'm not bring anything but hard evidence into this thread ever again :cold:

If only others would attempt to contribute to this thread with the same mindset. <_<
