Snow cancels new DICE console game showing in UK

EA’s confirmed to VG247 that a new, unannounced DICE console game was to be shown in the UK today, but the event has been cancelled thanks to snow.

What is it? We’ve been told it’s a new Battlefield, and that an Army of Two sequel was to be shown at the event. EA’s having none of it.

“No mention of either Battlefield or Army of Two,” an EA rep said this afternoon.

“The console-only DICE project is yet to be announced.”

Aside from the DICE game, the new Warhammer Online classes announced last week were definitely to be seen today, as were the new Need for Speed games, SHIFT, NITRO and World Online.

Sounds like the identity of that DICE game won’t stay under wraps for much longer. On reflection: Mirror’s Edge 2?

I’d be up for a bit more Mirror’s Edge. Less time-trial focus this time, please. And sack the guy who did those fucking awful cut-scenes.

I thank merry bleeding fuck that they cancelled that event, as I’d spent the night before writing a Killzone 2 review and wasn’t looking forward to freezing my unmentionables off in some stupid rail replacement bus. More summer game announcements, plz.
