"Civilization IV"... Confirmed? Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

From the related news item in Apolyton's 'Miscellaneous' section:

quote:


In an interview with GameDaily, Firaxis Games President and Chief Executive Officer Jeff Briggs seemingly confirmed that one of the three titles being worked on at the gaming developer is Civilization IV. [..]

This is the first known word of any kind from any representative of Firaxis or Civ series publisher and franchise owner Atari confirming a CivIV is in the works. The latest title in the Civilization series, Conquests -- the second expansion pack for Civilization III -- was commercially released last month.

I would love for Atari to give MoM to Firaxis, but unfortunatly the Idots over at Quicksilver have been trying to get the title for a few years. I pray the don't get it after what they did to the MoO series, but who knows?

So does anyone know who actually owns the rights to MoM. Did Infogrames Hunt Valley office own it, meaning that it is now Atari??

Or someone else entirely??
