Firaxis Hints At Meier's Next Game

Firaxis has given its web site a new look, and with the face-lift, the company has also posted a teaser area that states, "Something big is evolving at Firaxis. Sid's Designer Dairies begin January 2000." The statement sits beneath what looks like a large stone egg with a date: 12-17-99. While there are few details, Firaxis only lets gamers sign up for a mailing list to stay informed about "Sid's Next Big Thing." Could this be Firaxis' way of talking about the development of Civilization III for Hasbro Interactive? We'll just have to see what hatches from Firaxis' stone egg.
