This is what many people disliked about AoM. The 3D part of it, as well as being damn unfair to those who don't know how to use it, it made games lag alot, i couldn't even play it alone, nevermind with 7 other people.

3D ruined Railroad Tycoon 3: The 2D Railroad Tycoon 2 was great, and the flat, quirky Railroad Tycoon was perfectomundialdo.
Microsoft are saying very little at this stage, but PCG apparently know the game is in development, and expect a showing at this year's E3, with a Christmas release on the cards.
