Perfect, was looking for this.

Speaking of PC, if this is somehow tied to the Infinity series, I hope it ends up on Steam so that I finally get to play them.

Yeah, I post that in every thread but a guy can hope.
I played them all and I would still love a Steam release. Could gift them to a few people.

There certainly is a lot of meaningless stuff in that timeline.

Either this is Zero Escape 3 or someone at Aksys has fucked up big time. Anything besides ZE3 would cause will cause a riot.

well... there's a thread in community that didn;t get closed :^)

Yeah I know I went there too, just pretty annoying and stupid why this didn't belong in the gaming section... Of all things. I suppose really because the countdown was for some time, but there were things to look at and analyse each time, so it wasnt for nothing

Bring the pitchforks, the torches and the 3DSes for streetpasses!

No, I don't want to get hyped at all. I still don't understand what's the connection between 4infinity\the infinity series and ZE3 so I'm not sold yet.



The reality is that if it's ZE3 i'll be screaming like a child

Oh boy I'm going to have to reread a summary of the previous games because that stuff can be confusing after some time lol.
 
Please be ZE3 please be ZE3 please be ZE3

Seriously, I need that game in my life. VLR left me hanging, I've gotta see the rest of the story. Don't let me down Aksys!

My sister lent me her copy of 999 after this countdown started. She's really into the series, it would make an amazing birthday for her to hear Zero Escape 3 announced

Holy crap! Today's real megaton is that more than two people can have the same first name.
Really hope this isn't a let down after all this time.
I want ZE3 so much, I'm willing to buy a new console for it.
 
The series leaving Nintendo handhelds? Eh. I see 3DS/Vita and maybe some console/PC versions.



If it's developped by Aksys, I could see them using Unity. Which means no 3DS or maybe n3DS only... or next Nintendo's handheld, depending on the release date. But yeah here, I'm highly speculating considering we know nothing hahahahaa;

What if... Zero Escape 3 is an anime ? ha ha ha ha :p

I don't preorder many games, mostly because I don't pay full price for many games. But I'd be getting a ZE3 on day fucking one.

So, in the end, what did all this analysis actually reveal? A whole lot of nothing?

Nope, we knew when the teaser will end two months ago, where the panel will take place a month in advance and about Uchikoshi's involvement long before it was revealed. It was a lot of work, but some us just couldn't ignore the teaser and knowing those things and making sense of the chaos helped a lot. We also systematically eliminated things that the teaser isn't teasing, so it's been worth the time imo.

God, imagine the backlash if this is anything other than ZE3.

Oh boy I'm going to have to reread a summary of the previous games because that stuff can be confusing after some time lol.

Even rereading a summary of the events, it will still be confusing as shit lol.

the recent stuff found a connection at least;
Another update from yesterday, the most recent letters added were C, Q, and D. CQD was the distress signal sent by the Titanic. Remember that at the beginning of 999, you are told you are on the sister ship, the Gigantic.
 
Great recap, but isn't it more likely that this is the fourth in the Infinity series rather than ZE3? Isn't the answer just staring us in the face?

That series is very, very, very niche compared to ZE. Unlikely they'd make a 4 month long teaser for that for a Western audience.

Fuck yes, Zero Escape 3 announcement (if that's what it is)>>>>>>all of E3
I'm serious.

Hell, all of 2015!

Nigh impossible that ZE3 is an anime given the games' structure.

A Zero Escape 3 Kickstarter is a possibility?

I don't think so, IIRC VLR's budget (don't quote me on this) was between $1M and $5M or something, and TBF I am not sure a Kickstarter would be able to prepare that amount.

If this is getting a pc release then it will have to go through green light because aksys other game Magus still hasn't made it though yet.

I hope it's not a Kickstarter. I don't want to see companies hiding behind Kickstarters when they can sort it out the project without resorting to one.

But that's stuff we all knew 2-3 weeks in, when the end point of the countdown was made obvious. Uchikoshi's involvement came from stuff like tweets and not the hints on the website, right?

the recent stuff found a connection at least;

Yeah, I think there were a few other things like that, too. I suppose that's enough, but it all seems so unsubstantial for a countdown that lasted forever.

if there is a KS involved, it's likely because it requires one. It's been known for a while that it's a lack of funding in the project that put it on hold in the first place. Great excuse to use KS to allow the fans to help it become reality.

As much as i loved zero escape... a so long tease is messed up and not worth, not even for ze3.
