EA to announce new games tonight

ealogo2

EA’s confirmed it’s to announce some new games today.

The company is hosting its annual studio showcase later tonight, with Gamespot streaming the whole thing live. The publisher tweeted that new games will be announced during the event.

“New games announced tomorrow at EA’s annual Studio Showcase. GameSpot livestreaming it 1 PST”

There’s a little part of us that wants to see Mirror’s Edge 2 in that line-up. Pretty please?

Outside of the new titles, expect the usual suspects: Crysis 2, Medal of Honor, Dead Space 2, Bulletstorm, Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit and more.

Shindig kicks off at 9.00pm BST. We’ll have any news, natch.

Mirror’s Edge 2 would be great. No doubt it won’t be in there. :-)

The Jack the Ripper game from Visceral which was rumoured before as a digital download

I could go for a Mirror’s Edge 2 to be honest. The first one was fantastic.

I have a hunch it’ll be a disappointment. Like 3 said, a Jack the Ripper game would be “shock and ahhh no”. Or a new Def Jam, Skate, SSX or other bummer.

Still hoping for Mirror’s Edge 2 or a new Black & White.

Do EA own the righs to black and white?

Maybe they’ll finally annouce that Syndicate game Starbreeze have been making?

Did they properly announce that Spore RPG the other day? It could just be that.

Na, they’re holding that for Comic-Con.

Maybe the new games is a super dream team of games all being announced at once.

Mirror’s Edge 2! New SSX! Etc.

Sometimes I feel like I’m the only person in the world who can’t stand SSX. Or any snowboarding game, for that matter. :-)

I wouldn’t be suprised that if it is multiple games then 1 or 2 will be digital downloads, as for retail games me thinks either SSX or Syndicate

I didn’t like SSX either Blerk. Much prefer stuff like Skate to be honest.

I Did rent Mirrors Edge when it first came out but didn’t give it a lot of time because I had to send it back. Saw the PS3 version for a fiver in CEX, should I pick it up and give it more of a go?

you should definitely play Mirror’s Edge fully. For a fiver, don’t hesitate! It’s great, just ignore the fighting, and there’s little to match its core gameplay. If they announce a sequel today, it will be something else!

I would like an ME2 as long as it fixed the problems of the predecessor. I thought the first was a missed opportunity and disappointed me given the hype i placed in it =(

The problem with Mirror’s Edge is that the Time Trial challenges are tons better than the main game, except no one seems to bother looking.

I don’t like ANY Snow boarding Games or Skate Boarding Games, they all have a been there done that…Kind of like the Sports titles….Now give me Skate Boarding on the Moon with Space Bunnies or Snow Boarding On Mars with Martian Chickies and I would be a Tad, Tad mind you, more interested…LOL….but to each his own, or her!

A new Mirror’s Edge would be lovely. I still have to finish the first one though. Got it on Steam for a buck but it’s still there waiting for me to complete it.

New NFL Street mayhaps? I miss me some EA Big goodness.

They might be calling them “Bay Area NFL athletes” to hide the fact that they are in fact Oakland Raiders – In which case no one would show up.

Seriously though, anyone who calls SSX a bummer simply has no soul. That game was pure joy.
