Thanks Justin!

Also looking forward to the new website/announcements.

Best of luck to you Justin and the company.

Just a heads up I can detect there will be a lot of disappointment if no info is heard at/by E3 2010. This is going to be a huge year with the Microsoft and Natal announcements, and we would all love to see Robot be part of it.

Good luck!

@RVette83, yea I am disappointed, but I figured I was hoping for too much. My only hope left is that whatever projects Robot Entertainment announces, at least one is for the PC and/or an AoE spiritual successor.

As far the blog goes, thanks Justin for the post, it's always good to hear what you folks are up to. Let us hope the rest of 2010 will be a fruitful one for everybody.

Let's hope it's a PC, since PC is my only game platform.

i really hope the projects are something AoE and AoM 2 not an expansion but a reboot for age of mytholygy like better graphics but keep it same time period and stuff

Justin – Can you help out with this?

Robot does have the ability to go to Microsoft to publish their projects. Furthermore, Robot is contracted with Microsoft to support the current AOE titles. If Microsoft chooses they can give Robot the rights through a contract to make future AOE titles, even though Robot is not a Microsoft owned studio like Ensemble was. Can you confirm if these assumptions are correct on a hypothetical level? Not trying to be difficult, but I would like to get a clear understanding of where Robot stands from a business point of view, and I’m sure other community members would be appreciative as well.

Thanks for the help!

I hope it's gonna be a nice decent forum like the others out there, the one from aoe3 is really bad, small, claustrophobic, few options etc.

I have been reading through the exhibitor list on the E3 list and it does not mention Robot Entertainment partaking in any booths. I am just curious to if Robot Entertainment will be attending E3.

Justin - Can you put this rumor to rest if it’s not true?? The suspense is killing us!

Microsoft MAY be announcing AOE 4 as a Natal launch at E3 in a few weeks, and they have the right to do this since it is their franchise. Robot may or may not be involved in the games development. If you are shouldn’t you guys be at E3 to support this announcement, where you have an official presence since you’re involved in the devilment?? If this is not true, which it may very well be, where nothing that Robot is working on will be revealed at E3, can you officially state that “No info on any of Robot’s projects will be given at E3 this year?” It is somewhere true, where I’m sure you can’t comment, just don’t reply to the post.

I seriously hope you guys get to announce your own projects first, and not your developers just because they own the property.

We really hope to hear something soon, it’s been way too long!! Best of luck, you guys are doing an awesome job even though we have idea what your doing!

I have to agree. Right now it does not look good at all for a AOE 4 title for the PC. If anything it looks like it will be an xbox 360 title, like halo wars. I personally always played PC games, but recently got a 360, and I have grown to like it.

Here is so info from xbox, that they are expecting robot’s project to be for their platform. Since its coming from xbox this should be pretty solid. http://news.teamxbox.com/xbox/20381/Robot-Entertainment-Selects-Trinigys...

As far as Microsoft and E3 goes I think we still have a chance unless Justin says otherwise. Right now Microsoft gave 70% of their 3rd party developers (which should include Robot if they are developing games for Microsoft), Natal technology for the 360. Microsoft will be revealing their full lineup of games (about 15) at their pre E3 event. Right now the list of games is being kept very confidential, as we can only speculate. http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/107/1075174p1.html

My only thing is it doesn’t look like Microsoft is planning on bringing along all the 3rd party developers for the excitement. Whatever the case is I have full confidence in Robot, and they will bring us nothing but the best, whether they are/aren’t included or involved in this event.

Best of luck, and I’m hoping for the best.

Hi Justin!

Ofcourse you can not say anything about the game you are working on, but do you think we'll be glad once you announce it?

Greetings from Sweden!

Justin - When you got hired what was it like on the first day?

i think its cool how often you guys update, its nice. and i personally would love to see a AOE2/AOM~esque game, obviously those are copy-rited, but i still hold them to be some of the best games ever, and still play from time to time. I was hoping your games would be on the PC, seeing as you guys(well at ES) tended to make rts's, and most rts's i have played for consoles were kind of poor in comparison, at any rate, thank you for being involved with your fans
