The question should be whether he has any hope of having the announcement live up to all the hype there has been.

I'm afraid that this announcement has become so anticipated that it can't possibly live up to all the talk and will seem like a disappointment.

Unless, of course, it's an FPS converter, in which case all that hype would have been deserved!

There has already been talk of the FPS converter and Markus was working on this awhile ago:

See this thread:

It also mentions that this is NOT the big announcement.

It is my opinion that the announcement may have something to do with Solecismic software.

We could dream......Markus' game engine abilities and Jim's financial system would make an unbelievable game(s).

The big announcement is that OOTP4 is the last version of the game that will ever be made.
