Postthe two BIG reveals tonight

So just seen the following over at CVG.com

Game Informer is teasing two "huge" announcements it says will be revealed within the next 24 hours.

Speaking on its Twitter yesterday, the mag wrote: "tomorrow is going to be huge. Stay tuned for two HUGE exclusives!!" Note the double use of exclamation marks there.

The mag's editor-in-chief and fellow "tweeter" Andy McNamara backed up the tease his own Twitter last week: "In the last 24 hours I have seen 2 year defining things: one you will see shortly on our cover the other I can't speak of, both awesome," he said.

The mag's cover, in case you missed it, turned out to be the first info on Modern Warfare - which spilled onto the internet earlier this week.

Here's hoping one of the "year defining" announcements isn't Tonk Hawk and his plastic skateboard.


Anyone know what they are? or when we are likely to see them? one I assume maybe gameplay footage of MW2 but the other :|

My money's on those few GH5 tracks that were announced earlier today. After all, it is also by Activision, and if he saw MW2, they might have shown him those tracks, too.

Seems like a very awkward time for an announcement? This close to E3 wouldn't you just wait?

Really? No way can some GH5 tracks be classed as a BIG exclusive.

I'm sick of hearing about announcements and rumours being made via Twitter :x (don't ask me why)

I'm not getting my hopes up, i wouldn't be suprised if its just games that've already been announced, like the ones Mafro mentioned.

On a side note though, because of a Crackdown theme being released, he says that confirms rumours he's heard of Crackdown 2 being at E3.

I wasn't joking by the way. The announcements were DJ Hero and Modern Warfare 2.
