Well then, this explains a lot! I suppose that several of the new trademarks are Aerospace titles. I wonder, though, which ones are Aerospace and which ones are part of the new IP. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] justindana Okay okay okay... Jordan Weisman is involved! No confirmation of Crimson Skies related property though. Okay, done tooting my own horn...

Then you start looking at the parallels, the coincidences and the connections... The name "Aerospace" and the main setting & theme of Crimson Skies? The company that created Crimson Skies was FASA who's roots are in Chicago. But they were bought by and controlled by Microsoft. Sound familiar? Guess who else originally hails from Chicago? Yes, Bungie. FASA's founder, Jordan Weisman now has created a new company (Smith & Tinker) and secured shared control of the Crimson Skies IP (licensed from Microsoft). The company is in Bellevue literally down the street from the also once Microsoft-owned Bungie in Kirkland. Think some of these guys run in the same game circles? Back to Jordan Weisman, creator of Crimson Skies... he also founded 42 Entertainment, the creator of the Halo 2 ARG "ilovebees". Oh, and he also founded another company (Fyreball) with Pete Parsons who some may remember as "Mango"... a rather well known Bungie employee. That company is now called Meteor Solutions... Anyway lots of parallels and coincidences and connections. Just thought it was quite interesting... call me crazy.[/quote][/quote]
