Why's that? Could you explain the significance?
Motorcycle plate number:

EDIT: Nevermind, the second shot of the plate is different.

Liscense Plate I took a picture of the 2nd shot of the plate, but it's really not clear at all. In the first shot I couldn't even make out the letters.

No reason to spoiler a tweet - it's something prospective players need to see and can't find on their own.
Please use spoiler tag for puzzle solves (in case someone wants to try to solve it themselves) and plot points in tv/movies/books that people may not have seen yet.
Thanks!

Apparently not. What's the point of hiding things in trailers if you're just going to give us the same information in a tweet?

Interesting (and annoying for you I'm sure), that seems to suggest that it's a US only viral? The site seems to suggest that we will be hunting for Evelyn Salt, perhaps there will be live locations that are only centric to the US?

I'm not sure if the site's been updated or I just didn't notice it before but the title image proclaims the "Day X Exists Game begins May 17, 2010". At least we know when this will kick off.

I'll sign up for this. I've been looking forward to the movie for a while. And I concur with degravedi: Angelina Jolie + international spies + ARG = win!

New York Times article about the game:

which, incidentally, begins today.
