BioWare’s Next Game Has Guns and Explosions

While we didn’t get a full game reveal out of BioWare today, Spike TV’s short clip heralding its announcement on December 11th does reveal a few things: it’ll most likely be a brand new IP, there will be big guns, and, based on the broken glass, we’ll be subjected to plenty of explosions. I’ll even venture a guess that it will be “gritty” and “visceral”.

I suppose it could technically be Mass Effect 3 we’re seeing here, but it would be a bit deceptive on BioWare’s part to show a clip that’s devoid of any ME characteristics. Thoughts?

UPDATE: There’s also this cryptic barcode to analyze on the BioWare Facebook page. It’s like one of those barcodes I used to work with at UPS years ago that contained all of the shipping data necessary for sorting packages in the large automated facilities. In binary, the barcode is decrypted as “001101010011010100101110001110000011010000110101” or 55.845 (in ASCII), which some have speculated might refer to the atomic mass of iron.
