Looks like 1237-7811

DAMMIT I can't wait until the year 7811!

Was about to make a thread like this a couple weeks ago, but upon further inspection I came to the same conclusion as Psycho.

7811? DAMN! Does he has any time for anything else? He must have a reputation.

Looks like the 3 and 8 are both 0. Some zeroes have a slash though the middle. At any rate they look like the same number to me. I believe 1207-2011 is correct.

Would be kind of funny if they did some kind of alternate reality game like Portal / Portal 2. But, alas, I bet all the rifles and boxes will have the same numbers as in PS1.

Do you actually think that they would texture in such a specific date, with the intention of it being an easter egg to some sort of release/beta date? Seems like a waste of resources to me.

Remember, this is SOE we're talking about

[Sovereign]

Ha, SOE being able to pull a Valve experiment, that will be their day...

I think we need to enhance the photo a bit more.

If you take that date as a European date, btw, you get 12th of July... Which is just a couple of days after Fan Faire...

[Bags]

SOE isn't EU tho.

[Firefly]

Hey I know, we should take this number and read a whole bunch of hoodoo into it and come up with a date in the next six months' timeframe, and then run around telling everyone that this is the release date, and swear up and down that it's the Gospel According to St. Smedley, and start a thread that says "So, it's almost [date]".

...

... oh wait. We already did that, mostly.

If it worked for Nostradamus, I don't see why it wouldn't work for us

Yeah! And don't forget Harold Camping!

[Vancha]

Yeah, y'see, the trick to prophecies is keeping them vague, and making the due date a time long after your death.
