why would microsoft advertise mystery spot, ca? if they meant a tourist trap

I'm guessing it fits in with the mystery theme of the game. We've verified that it is the correct location though.

Maybe brilo is an inocent victim of a prank by a friend of his?

That is very possible. I think we should not assume it's been solved until we know for sure... but I'm out of ideas for now :p

Hey guys just got back from the F.D. and im reading all the new news....

well I put my answer in a sunday and havent changed it since and although it wasent the one brillo put he may be right too....So since im not going to change my answer anyway I say brillo if you are for real then congrats man for getting it first and good job and if not...well then I fully withdraw my congratulations and wish you serious help :)

either way I had fun...MUCH fun and I think I can speak for alot of others here when I say that, its been a blast with you guys and my biggest regret is its over :( EMale thx for the tunes, Confusio thx for the theories and ideas , that goes for rest of you too, thx for the good times

And the guys a unfiction too, im sure weve all been there back and fourth, And honestly, the thing that gave me goosebumps is in last video, when she says we are like our own 7 brothers.....call me corny....but it felt like she was talking DIRECTLY to us here and at unfiction, after all without our posts, I dont think people would have gotten very far.....SO CONGRATS TO EVERYONE AND GOOD GAME, and as for the pure luck chance drawing well good luck to you all :)

I dont want to believe it, but one thing makes too much sense to deny. Yes, the hardee-hadera-ivy was interesting but I didnt see a connection between Ivy and anything else. But if you think about IV, the roman numeral for 4, it makes sense.

It seems that we were supposed to find out the 4th sisters name due to the fact that #4 on the video wasnt holding anything, and even more important to me is that she is the one who lowered her glasses. Final answer page-holding her glasses. Perhaps we shoulda only listened to the clues from the one who held her glasses as well, with all the other clues being unuseful and from the other 3 sisters.

But then I keep thinking--All this and the word is Ivy? Its so simple and somehow unsatisfying. Kinda like on The Wizard of Oz when Dorothy finally gets to the see the wizard and hes just a short fat guy. But Im not saying it wasnt fun, and thanks to this forum it was awesome to see everyone work together. A prize would also be awesome.

AND NOW, MY $.02 WORTH.

That email is FAKE, end of story. Why? Good God, man, you posted the answer SUNDAY and they make extra changes anyway? What, so more people could come in second? Not on your life.

Are we certain that map picture is of Hardee, Mississippi? I mean, after covering thousands of miles with precision of hundredths of a mile, we're all SURE that this is where it leads to? Is there no other place within error that looks the same? I don't know, maybe that's just frustration talking :angry: ...sorry if it is.

Second, I agree with the others who have posted that the answer MUST be a SINGLE WORD (possibly derived from the four...see my last post on TIME) and not a set of four. Four answers is lame. Plus, those four sister-characters are already alive and don't need our naming them to bring them into the world. LOKI could vanish without their names (or has she vanished already? If so, why are we still trying to find her Vanishing Point?), and I seem to recall something about us HELPING Loki find her VP, so she must be--for game purposes--still 'unvanished' until one of us gets the right answer.

So something about the answer must make her "unravel like a knot on a string"......somehow this answer must penetrate her mystery and show that there is nothing there but these four sisters.... Somehow, that logic could point to four names, but it just doesn't satisfy.... I say we keep looking no matter how :wacko: we get. Anyone else up for indulging their OCDs?...

"with must be completed..." :blink:

I guess that's what happens when you cut and paste it from another fake email. It's pretty easy to spoof an email these days. Anyone else want a "winning email"? Just send me your email address and I'll make sure you get one.

I'm going to feel like a real arse if Brilo's wife is the real winner.

Loki hoped that Thor's passion for Lorelei would distract him from interfering in Loki's schemes for gaining power. Thor had not seen Lorelei since she was a child, and so would not recognize the adult Lorelei."

Well, I guess that's it. "One of you has discovered my identity." It must really have been four names. Too bad for me--not that I would have been the first to answer anyhow. At least we can all go to bed now, safe with the knowledge that SOMEONE solved the !@#$ thing first. Let's hope it was one of us! Whoever you are, please post some hard evidence so we can all finally put this thing to rest. And if they let you, please put Neowin & Unfiction on the chips, too! By golly, these people have earned it!

    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.
