And no, not Halo: CE.

The secret classic game referenced on the latest issue of OXM UK - and set to be "reborn" on Xbox 360 - is NOT Halo: combat Evolved.

Magazine editor Jon Hicks has told CVG that the title is not from the Bungie canon and clarified: "OXM never claimed it was an Xbox exclusive - merely that it was exclusive to the magazine."

He added: "It has been correctly identified in the CVG comments thread, though. I'm impressed - although I still can't reveal which one of the guesses are right."

You clever blighters.

Halo: CE was many people's first assumption at seeing the mag's next month page, which teased: "You WILL buy this magazine... One of the best games ever made is reborn on Xbox 360."

Most of these guesses were inspired by "sources" who this month claimed Halo: CE is being remade in HD by Timeshift studio Saber, ready for a November release.

However, it's not the game OXM is teasing. Look at the blue squiggly background. What on Earth could it be?
But, unfortunately....

The reveal has now been pushed back by the game's publisher and "is very unlikely to appear in the magazine for the forseeable future," according to Hicks.

I wonder why they would suddenly cancel it with the magazine's next issue and cover-page all ready for reveal next month

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
