My Brutally Fun Prediction: Ikaruga
With less than 24 hours left to crack the code, speculation has been running wild circles around the tubes in an effort to uncover the true meaning behind the phrase "Brutally Fun".
Based on the color scheme (red/black), the timing of the countdown coming very close to the typical Wednesday release time for XBLA games, and the fact that this game is brutal but fun (or so I hear), my prediction is the release of Ikaruga.
That's all I got. Go ahead and prep your statements of ridicule for when I'm so wrong it hurts. If only just the idea of this being true hadn't gotten my hopes up.

"Oh well...I can still wait and hope for Ikaruga, can't I?"
Of course. Last I heard it was slated for a fall release which means mid Sept to early November release. It is one of the few games I would get my Dreamcast repaired to play, but since most of the others use the light gun I don't think any repairs will be happening as I have an HDTV.

The count down has ended and all it says is:
"Brutally Fun
BE HERE AT 11PM PDT TONIGHT"
Do they mean in two hours? Do they mean in twenty-two hours?
I still have no idea what the count down was for but I think we have a new definitio for anti-climatic.
"Ninja Gaiden 2...it's true
"Ninja Gaiden 2...it's true sequal"
I believe I already purchased that back in 1990. Anythign new then?
They seriously need to learn how to do a count down. After all that crap of a count down to a wait until post I am far more annoyed an frustrated than interested.
