X2: The Return becomes X3
   

From Egosoft:

EGOSOFT today announces the beginning of a new era for the X series of space combat/trading games. The planned expansion for the award winning PC CDROM title, X²: THE THREAT known as X²: THE RETURN has been cancelled. The essence of the expansion pack has been used to give birth to the next generation of X game, in the form of X³: REUNION, the first multi format product, set in the X universe.

During the creation of X²: THE RETURN, it became apparent to EGOSOFT that the expansion pack had taken on a life of its own. With so many ideas from the fan community, waiting to be implemented into an already crowded expansion game and development of the X³ engine moving at a rapid pace behind the scenes, the conception of a full, stand alone game became the logical choice.

Sounds cool...

Multiplayer?

I agree, it does sound cool... and I don't mind that the saves won't work.

I didn't see anything about multiplayer, Xen. Multi-platform, but not MP. Do you have inside info?

Sorry. No pearls of wisdom in this oyster.

Actually, I think I misread multi-platform for multi-player ... combined with the knowledge that they're still thinking of X Online at some point I leapt to a fairly hopeful (and sort of logical) conclusion that this one would have multi-player as an intermediate step.
