58 User(s) are impatiently reading this topic :stare:

So since I live in Europe I have to wait until the evening to see the cover while you Americans can just lie down in bed and sleep for a few more hours and have sweet dreams about Skyrim? :stare: :stare: :stare:

Meh, I'm on a nocturnal sleeping pattern, so its not like I will be sleeping anytime soon. And at that, I am eastern time zone, so I have to wait an extra 3 hours for everything that goes on in this country, being that they always do releases at pacific time. While I don't have it as bad as you, I can say, I feel your pain.

And you'll find out nothing about how game will be just from cover of some magazine.


Well the cover can indicate the art style of the game. If you look at Oblivions cover you will see that it presents the art style of the game truthfully.

It's 10 am here in central europe and we still have to wait, <_<

Well, we would be able to see the art style they will use, and how one of the races (most likely Nords) will look if they are pictured on the cover. We will get a glimpse of the world/a dungeon/inside of a castle/etc.
Maybe we will see a dragon. Will it look like the Avatar of Akatosh? Will it look like a typical fairytale-dragon?

Magazines wouldn't bother with covers if they didn't serve a purpose :wink_smile:

You know, I find it quite interesting that a review of Deception was in that issue when it's quite possible that a preview of the new Mortal Kombat could be in this one! It's a conspiracy! http://www.google.com/search?btnG=1&q=Black+Helicopters

This is going to be a huge anti-climix. The front cover will bring me a few seconds of joy, afterwards I will just sit and stare at it whilst becoming more and more fustrated.......it just wont be enough

http://scrawlfx.com/2011/01/game-informer-to-unveil-skyrim-cover-this-thursday

The info comes by way of Game Informer editor-in-chief Andy McNamara. He wrote on Twitter: “It is The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim on the all-black cover. We will show the cover this Thursday as well as start some awesome online stuff.”





Update 6:56pm: Looks like the issue will reveal a new Bethesda sequel, as well. The magazine’s Andrew Reiner tweets: “Take your best guess as to what Bethesda has been working on. I’m curious what you expect,” followed by: “In addition to Skyrim, this issue holds an unannounced sequel. Guess away!”

I had a dream last night that I got an early copy of Skyrim and there was an extra mode that recreated Morrowind on the new engine.

Then I woke up. :sadvaultboy:

Need this cover soon. :mellow:

Oh, Just take a look at Andrew Reiner's twitter page:

Take your best guess as to what Bethesda has been working on. I'm curious what you expect.

In addition to Skyrim, this issue holds an unannounced sequel. Guess away!

The unannounced game ISN'T a BETHESDA game.

I dunno where Game Informer is exactly based, http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/. So yeah, you're going to be waiting for a while. There's no "set" release date for the cover, it'll come out when GI feels like updating it. That could be in 12 hours or more, for all we know.
