 		If this is a game jack, who ever did it is certainly making a convincing effort. However, there are several strong indicators that this is fake, and so I think for now we just go back to playing the waiting game for this ARG. Sad

 		Never really understood GameJack'ers. It's a bit sad, innit? I mean, it's like those people who post up "Fan-made" trailers to films to YouTube... pointless.

 		The youtube channel is definitely fake. If you look at TheFireRises' subscribers, one of the names of the subscribers is.....I'm serious....Mr.GammaJack. Too blatant to be a coincidence.

 		Gamejacks do irritate me, but it does happen. Anyway, on a happier topic, anyone going to Comic-Con?

So far you're the current contact. Your mission, report anything related to Batman. Including, but not limited to random stuff on the ground, things in the air, things projected on walls, things hidden in plain sight, and Batdogs.

....

What? Batdogs are cute!

 		twitter.com/thefirerises profile pic
just curious here... so the youtube and facebook pages have been found to be phony, but the twitter seems to be legit, right?

Has anyone messed around with the @thefirerises profile pic from twitter? Seems to be just a black square, but maybe you software folk can find something hidden in it?

 		http://www.movieviral.com/2011/06/02/42-entertainment-is-not-working-on-the-dark-knight-rises-viral-campaign/ - Posted on the SHH forums.

So there is confirmation that 42e isn't doing this arg. Maybe Nomimes or 4th wall is doing this?

Course, it could just be WB in house.

Either way, my excitement dropped a little.

 		Interesting that they mention that the members of 42E that did The Dark Knight ARG no longer work for 42E... so it could be the same people doing this ARG, just for another (or their own) company.

 		Here's an update from that same article:

Quote:
12:55pm PT – I was just contacted by someone works with 42 Entertainment who tells me that all the major individuals (producers, writers, etc.) who worked on the Why So Serious campaign are in fact still with the company. Also, although 42E is not currently working on the TDKR campaign, Warner Bros. could still contact them later on. Given that the film isn't set to release in theaters until July 20, 2012, the studio has some time to decide if they want work with 42E again.


So… maybe there's sill hope?

Mission accepted. Although con is soooo big it would be good to have more "agents" on the ground reporting. I was thinking of setting up a twitter feed for all the arg stuff i find and stuff i hear. ill post it if i do
