After the pleasant surprise that was MechWarrior’s retrieval from the scrap heap, FASA founder Jordan Weisman’s decided the skies are the limit for his new company Smith & Tinker – both figuratively and literally.
“Most of my time is invested in [Smith & Tinker], but in the wee hours of the night, I spend time thinking about the older properties. I think Crimson Skies is something we’d love to get some energy around, and we have some devious plans - we’ll see if those materialize,” he told GameSpot.
“Devious plans,” eh? Sounds… well, really vague. Still though, if they involve giving Crimson Skies a MechWarrior-style reboot, we don’t think we’ll have too much trouble stomaching them.

OMG!!!
This would be so. That was one of our favorite lan party games. That is, until the nVidia 8 series came out and from then on, the game would not run in hardware render mode. If a sequal was made, I hope it would be nothing less than the origional. I am buying this the day it is realeased. (if it is of course). I am very exited to hear more about this.

yes, it was very good. I liked it a lot.
I don't like Microsoft, I associate with it.

I think my friend Mike Pondsmith (of R.Talsorian Games) was involved in the original. Any word on his involvement in the revival?
