Dids't mine ears deceive me, or did Leah say that their next release would be the expansion pack for Empire at War????

"Our next release following Prey is gonna be the expansion pack to Star Wars, its Empire at War." Very oddly phrased statement. You can bet I'm going to be all over this next podcast.

it could be that Empire at War is an expansion pack to the Star Wars franchise
also it could just be a mistake. He messed his words up?

or, it could be that the expansion is coming over too. I get the feeling that in the current times, Aspyr is going to be milking every ounce of worth they can out of the work they do. Hence the porting of Prey, and the possibility of the EaW expansion coming out.

its all about revenue

I think this was just a mistake in wording- Leah meant to say our next project was the next extension of the Star Wars universe - Empire at War.  It's just the original game, not the XP.

I'm going to pretend I didn't see your post, Glenda, so I actually have something to talk about.......  

Ah well, the Apple stuff will take up most of the time anyways.
