Well, hopefully they are in deep development for AC2.
Then again, AC is so very good that I wonder how it can be improved upon....besides graphically.While there might be a physics engine that applies to the jugs, I doubt that an entire engine was written specifically for the funbags. - Cyclotron - debating the pressing issue of boobies in games.

In the last Firaxis chat at CFC, they mentioned working on a new patch for PtW.
Also, according to the latest information, Firaxis and Infogrames will make an announcement of their next project at E3 in mid May.
AC rights are owned by EA, so I don't think we will see a new AC.

And yeah, they did say that would announce something at E3... I don't think that an expansion announcement is worth a special E3 announcement.
Now, when I first saw the news I was thinking they would come up with a new version of colonization... (Somehow I don't believe they'll go back to SMAC.) But now after seeing that announcement at AVault again, I'm thinking of new speculations. For instance:
The event comes four years to the day after Meier announced Civilization III at a similar gathering during E3 1999.
Exactly four years from Civ3 announcement? Civ4 maybe? Or MoO4? It is Infogrames after all. Might wanna fix the mistakes of the third iteration by bringing in Sid. Either that or another SimGolf thingie.

Oh, good.
Well, let's see. What has Sid Meier worked on...
Pirates. A remake of that maybe?
Railroad Tycoon. Already being worked on. Nothing new to announce, probably.
Civilization, in many different flavours (Civ1, WinCiv, CivNet, Civ2, etc..). I hope he is done with it. I love the concept and have played all of the games, but really, I don't think there is anything to improve without radically changing the gameplay, as Civ3 + PtW has shown clearly. (That is, they tried to change a lot of stuff, but in the end, while the game is good, many people were disappointed. I don't think the legacy will continue. Not this time around, any way, I don't think. Unless, they choose to go fully 3D on us, in which case that might be it...)
Colonization. Don't know how much to bet on that, but it would be sweeeet.
Magic: The Gathering. Meh. Don't think so. Not E3 scale.
Gettysburg and the Civil War Series. That may as well be it, but I didn't particularly like any of those games, so I'm hoping they would choose something else.
Alpha Centaury. Would be nice, but like mentioned above, chances are slim.
Any other speculations?

Don't see Sid Meier working on X-COM. Can't imagine that at all...
