Command& Conquer 4 now Official, but Still Sort of "Secret"

Yesterday I spoke of how rumours spread about a possible Syphon Filter 5. Well, after the survey that took place a while back, it has now "accidentally" slipped out on, yes you guessed it, Twitter, that Command& Conquer 4 is in development.

I'm sure we all knew this anyway. Why else would they have had that survey last month?

EA is certainly churning out the C&C stuff lately. Think of the eight year gap between RA 2 and RA 3, and the significantly shorter gap between C&C 3 and the announcement of C&C 4.

Syphon Filter 5 Rumours

Lately on computerandvideogames.com, there were two posts, one claiming that a Syphon Filter 5 and Socom 4 are in development. After that, that statement was retracted after claims of an "error" on PCB Productions' part.

But it seems to be a trend- sites put these titles up, people spot them, they're reported by gaming news sites and blogs, then they're taken down because they are meant to be confidential. It happened with Dead Space 2 after all, among others.
