Well, I actually think the interview was rather interesting as it actually did provide quite a lot of information about the current state of the project, and it has placed some timeframe of the release at least (2010). The fact that he commented on the shutting down of aces studios also gives a fresh feeling as the screenshots could have been from 2006

But I do like the high res Emil...
One thing I like a lot are the indications lately that 1C has helped MG with resources for 3D eye candy and skeletal animations etc. MG are good at flight model stuff etc, but add some young wizkids that can do those fancy 3D fires seen in BoP etc... No need to let the former flight engineers spend valuable time learning the latest Dx10 effects.
