So did you guys hear? Random people have been phoning gaming journos and saying  “Do you know about Wii U? If not, you will.” In creepy voices.

People think it's viral marketing.

Vindication that I am not one!

This may all be a hoax, some even think it's by the people who teased Sadness for 4 years.  

But we have a new Wii U game rumour.

These past hours, a number of journalists more or less close to Nintendo have received funny and many curious invitations cards!

All would be accompanied by illustration with a named set: Medium

Moreover, the   official website   of the game is already open:

http://www.medium-game.com/

(But it's bare bones shit - GG)

Add this up with the creepy phone messages and someone is doing something fishy.

It probably is not Acid Ghost:

RUMOR - More details on 'Acid Ghost' , a supposed Wii U game



Remember out rumor last night concerning Eminem promoting a Wii U game called Acid Ghost? Here's the next round of rumored info!




- being developed by one of Kuju Entertainment's teams



- originally intended to be published by Konami for the Xbox 360/PS3



- game features a dark sense of humor



- takes place on a cruise ship



- play as an invisible evil spirit that haunts and terrorizes passengers on the ship



- use the Wii U controller to pick up random objects, grab people's body parts, draw on the walls with blood, turn on and off lights in rooms, mess with passengers tv's, radio's, and laptops, and mess with their food when they aren't looking



- walk into a woman's room while she is sleeping and move her bed into a kitchen



- cover a kid's bed in spiders



- you're rewarded for how much you traumatize the ship passengers



- Each passenger has an individualized personality and characteristics



- online mode



- Kuji made a new demo of the game with Wii U controller ideas to show to Nintendo

It was semi debunked based on the false concept art, but the false concept art came later and was not related to a cruise ship it looked more like a Borderlands setting. The artwork for medium looks completely different too.

BTW Acid  Ghost is probably a hoax too.

Playing through LoS right now. Nothing like a mediocre action game when you're burned out on almost everything else.

Fixed that for you

Hahaha...no it is pretty good. I actually enjoyed it more than God Of War 3 somehow.

Really? How did you like it?

Come Vader gave the game a 9.1! That is obviously mediocre on his scale. A game needs to be at least 9.5 to be good on his scale.

Uggggggggggh. The Nintendo direct thing is at 11pm UK time.

Oh no 11 at night, woo so late. What are you a 70 year old woman, stay up. You better be here, I need some GG reaction.

OMG !!!!!!!!

VGPress multiplayer tonight, fellas?  Uncharted 3 or Gears 3?

Heat game, sorry.

Seeing as Gearbox love Nintendo's new console so much, I guess they must be doing Borderlands on it?

I wish Matt Cassamassina was still covering Nintendo. He probably would have confirmed about 80% of the stuff going around by now.

I am here biyatch. I expect most of what they tell us to be regurgitated crap we already know from last E3.

I think services, OS, channels and partnerships are what they will show us. I wonder if the controller screen will be multitouch now? Not that I really care.

I doubt it.

So anyone know the history of Paul Gale and 1UP? On the 8-4 Play podcast Mark McDonald alluded to something in the past that made him untrustworthy.

Scoops anyone?

=-=-

Also, slow news day. I guess everyone is in transit.

I know nothing about Paul Gale except that he has been right a couple of times recentely. I hear that he is wrong 60% of the time and we hear he has some kind of insider info on Retro studios. He has this habit of alluding to things very vaguely, then some announcement is made and he says: yeah that's what I was talking about, yay I am right. As for the Ice Climbers/Project HAMMER stuff it was already taken down by the time I saw it so I am going off the word of the forumer who posted it.
