They're Ultimaking Another One?

Ultima Online Stratics has posted a very interesting screenshot -- supposedly the first from Ultima X, which EA has been secretly developing in Austin for nearly a year. The game has yet to be announced, and its exact nature is completely unknown -- it could be a sequel to Ultima Online or Ultima 10. The lesson Wing Commander fans should take from this, though, is that it's never too late for Wing Commander 6 to suddenly pop out of the woodwork...

Correction: Action Stations

I'd be remiss if I didn't point out that Joe Garrity of the Origin Museum (pictured below) wasn't absolutely essential in not meeting Bill Forstchen. Because he was. So there. Ah, who am I kidding, I just wanted an excuse to show this picture again.
