The Much Awaited Announcement...

Featured Replies

Does anyone here care to speculate on which form this announcement will be made?Will it be a press release, a presentation, a combination of both and if so how much detail will it contain?My memories of the last version's announcements are somewhat hazy, so if any of you remember, how was it done last time and how do you think we will find out about exactly what it is we are getting this time?...or will it be like Chinese water torture... a slow drip feed of well controlled releases right up to the day it becomes available.I guess we will find out in a few days anyway :-)Cheers,Chris Porter:-outta

... mention of MGS or MSFS.http://www.smh.com.au/news/breaking/annual...6050364569.htmlI guess in the overall scheme of things, we are pretty much a niche market.Cheers,Chris Porter:-outta

All most of us know for certain is that there will be an announcement this week from MS.

Sure thing that... however I wonder if it will include a feature set and a minimum machine spec or is it too early to tell?Chris Porter:-outta

I would like to know what colour toilet tissue MS will be placing in the A380 washrooms.David

>I would like to know what colour toilet tissue MS will be>placing in the A380 washrooms.>>DavidThey are cutting back this version, no toliet tissue at all! Have fun!

I'm just excited to (hopefully) find out what goodies MS have in store for us in the next version. I can easily (well almost!) wait until whenever it's due to come out but I can't wait to hear how the team have made use of technological developments since FS9 came out.

I would expect a pretty business-like press release for now. MAYBE one or two screenshots if we're lucky. Then I would expect an official site with new screenshots and info to get published maybe once a month or so until the game is released. That's how it's usually done.

I just hope the announcement has more info about the much sought after missing WMD's in Iraq.Greg

So we go from speculation about the release date of the product to speculation about the release date of the speculation of the release date of the product. Ha!
