^ It truly is, because I'm trying to get my brother to pre-order this, but since there's no release date, he won't do it. And since Activision loves overly-hyping up their games and releasing sequels every year, he already paid for a copy of Black Ops.

This is what I'm talking about. This needs to be done more often.

Looks like I don't have any reason for a PS3 yet then. Oh well. Good move on their part.

I bet for a September release date, even Cox (Accidentally?) said that the competitor he was most afraid of was Halo reach, guess what, that's coming September :P

Hey guys, mark this image well, it was labelled "Spoiler" by a MS employee and tweeted to Cox by him, however the original image is at tweepic, and it will be possibly deleted after a while

what could it be?  :o

If it was a manual, I think it would showcase Gabriel somehow and not two random creatures. Composition's a bit wack with the two strong colors on the bottom, I wouldn't really want it as a cover.

The orange and green splashes really... Stand out. I wonder what that green horse-thing is?

I'm guessing it's the horse from the trailer and E3 demo, dunno.

Based on the size of the text at the bottom of it, my bet is on some bonus poster.

Maybe it's some sort of "intentional" spoiler. To fans maybe...

Though I don't see anything "spoilering" in this picture.  :-\

I'm gonna guess it's a promo poster or something, I doubt its going to be on anything like the cover or manual
What a horrible night to have a curse!

Whatever that pic is, I love the concept of the castle. It's HUGE!

That pic looks like 1 big castle though, whereas in the new trailer they showed 4 castles all sort of connected together Van Helsing movie style. Maybe there really is more than 1 castle in this game? I know that's been aluded to many times before.
*I'm not a newbie...I had several hundred posts with this screenname on the old board*
