They're making a new Ultima game.

NEW ULTIMA GAME.

Anyone needs me, I'ma gonna be over here going Squee for the next few weeks.

Bio... Ult... wha... buh weeble goo zort narf

Sorry to bring a dose of reality to this, but judging from the way new versions of old franchises have been going, our odds aren't that good.
I expect Ultima-in-name-only, Ultima IX-2, Baby's First Ultima (for Kids and Consoles!), or something equally offensive.  Remember- EA owns them, and their last two games were ME3 and DA2- bad at worst, and controversial at best.

I've been writing a bit.

Y'know what, they cannot do worse than or even equal to 8 and 9 without actually having that as their stated goal.  I'd be happy for something with the story quality of UW2 or Martian Dreams, and that seems eminently achievable.

Meh...
EA will make it into Ultima Call of Duty. That's what they do. There is no Bioware, only Zuul...

*has been watching The Spoony ones Ultima Retrospect* As long as it's isn't 8, 9 or Online, I'm interested.

Yeah, see, I understand all your points, but... New Ultima Game.
