 		So this is kinda a let down.

So much potential is just sitting there.

I would expect at least an email by now.

 		I wouldn't worry about it taking time to start up. The coherency of the storyline with the car bomb leads me to think that this definitely will be an ARG, and not just a bunch of in-movie websites. But the movie isn't coming out until NEXT August, and we haven't seen an ARG yet that lasted an entire year. I would be totally happy if this game didn't start for a few months yet.

Still, I agree that it looks REALLY well put together so far.

Agreed.

I doubt that we'll see huge things happening anytime soon as the flick doesn't actually open until next August, but they'll probably take baby steps for the next few months to gain more interest and get a word of mouth thing going online.

I'd be willing to bet that from Comic-Con alone they've probably received more than 1,000 hits on the sites in the past week. And if all goes well E.G. - we all tell our nerdy friends (and wives and/or girlfriends) about it, they will get tons more hits this week. Then once the dust has cleared from all of us trying to figure out just what the heck is actually going on, they'll make their second move.

Possibly another site or another kidnapping or event on the d-9 site.

By the way, has anyone else passed the math test?
I failed miserably but my friends got all 10 correct.
He said not to worry, all it gave him was a URL to an error message. So obviously that part of the site isn't even live yet. Looks like we're gonna wait alot in between updates. Al-a - Dark Knight happenings. Sometimes we'd go months without a peep and everyone would be up in arms wondering what's going on. Then the joker would simply send out a few choice words via Text message to let us know that the game was still going. I suspect that's what we'll experience here as well.

None that I could find. Lots of names and company's mentioned through out the four websites and nothing hitting yet. Email addresses coming back defunct.

So lots of openings but no connections...

EDIT: on the multinationalunited website the shield on the mnu security recruitment poster is red and has some design on it. Did anyone else notice this?

Also sent a bunch of emails out to addresses I hope I am not bothering OOG people. Guess we will see in about 4 days.
