Alive 9
Anno 3017 Preview

Another  candidate on  the very-far-from-now-release-date-list  is "Anno  3017",
which will be a clone of "Frontier"  aka "Elite II" mixed up with some  elements
of "Carrier Command". As you can guess it will be a trading game with additional
tactical battle missions. The  game is still in  the precoding phase, and  afaik
nothing has been  started yet. Even  if the concept  looks interesting I  really
doubt we  will see  a release  within our  lifetime. However  I can imagine huge
crowds of greyhaired, toothless Atarians  sitting on their wheelchairs in  front
of their blurred CRTs at EIL 23, waiting for a preview of "Anno 3017" :)
