Indeed, after all they did say
Quote:
Followers of the CommanderVideo situation, please feel free to link to your Real-World CV Sightings in the comments right here on Gaijin Games dot com.


Does Milbank(as in the picture) say anything to anyone? Any thoughts, should that be leading somewhere?

Hmm...what would exactly qualify as a sighting of CV? A computer? A TV screen? One of those big ugly electrical/internet(?) boxes that they put everywhere? A... Wii? I can get you a picture of our old television if that's what you want though.

looks like thats a partial of each frame, the logo refered to on page 3 seems to be correct, this looks like a cross between that and gaijin games logo

I have a strong feeling I've seen that picture somewhere else than this site or the video...

ETA: I'm just gonna go get a picture of one of those electrical boxes or something outside...we have one just outside the house, I'll post it though I think it won't be much of help.

ETA2: I would perceive these two images to be for the same purpose as the picture posted on Gaijin Games... Do any of you know what the box in the original picture actually is and what is it for?

Or does the image just have to "look" like a...robot(head, body?) of some sort?

By all means, meditate on it, StarSeeker... I have a good feeling that we're on the right track.

And, not really, I don't know what it is/ does... THe one on Gaijin has a label that says it has no fuses inside of it, though.

from Finland are we StarSeeker? Razz

Milbank make electrical enclosures, much like the one you posted in your first pic.

I think they posted it though because it has a small rectangular visor, much like the CommanderVideo.jpg depicts on its I AM ONLY A MAN image.

Indeed I am Smile

Also Automaton, that was exactly what I was thinking afterwards... I'll have to see if I can find something that would depict a robot head of some sort(a "head" with a visor or similiar.)

ETA:Hmm... Would a TV do the trick? I'm gonna search for a better one anyways but thought I'd ask.

I've submitted one of my TV. It worked nicely, because it had "VIDEO1" on the screen in the photo.

Apparently you've got to wait for an approval process, though. While we're waiting, let's get back to the tasks at hand;

We still need the producers. Any thoughts? CV said we had enough info, which either means the video... or a code.

Also... the wikipedia entry still needs an image, and as I said, when I tried it, I almost messed it up entirely.

Seriously?! Dang it, NP! I like your mag, too, but you feel you can do this when you can't let loose info on the new ZELDA game?!

Anyway... it matters not. We'll publish the info about the publisher, and move on with the ARG. It's still fun.

Alright so the latest issue of Nintendo Power has already spoiled our pre-game!

Every detail including Title, Publisher and Screenshot is out in the open at this link:

Aww crappers...

Oh well, like GenisSage said, we move on if the PM is still willing to drop in the clues.

Indeed. I have emailed CV and told him we are willing to ignore the spoilers and move on like we saw nothing if he was.

It would help if you took the link out of your post, auto.

Erm, I'm not going to pretend like I didn't see any of this. The information is out in the open. It's too late, and kinda pointless, to pretend otherwise?

I'm sure there's more to the game than finding out the title and publisher. Let's play on.

Perhaps, but it may cause the developer to throw out, or dispose of, what would have been perfectly good puzzles that he had developed to gradually reveal the information. But alright, your call.

You called right:

Hopefully, they stay with "Cryptic."

They don't appear too mad... but it could be good sportsmanship.

Well, crap, I just came here to post that I'd found a match for the logo in the video. I had to look at all of the publishers of the Wiiware games on this page:
http://www.nintendo.com/games/guide#qplay=wiiware&panel=qplay
Of course it was near the last row when I finally found a match:

How the hell does print media come around to spoil things in this day and age?!

Wow, Mr. Toasty... that's dedication! I can't believe they'd spoil that...
