Criterion Black Sequel
Criterion Games are best known for their Burnout series however a few years back they produced a game for the Xbox and Ps2 known as Black this FPS managed to get rave reviews even though it came from a company with little or no FPS background.
Well over on Criterion games website a listing has been noticed stating a game for release in 2009 known as Black: Second Mission which stands a very good chance of being Black's sequel.
This game is scheduled for release on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.
Although this is yet to be confirmed or denied by Criterion is stands a good chance of being real seeing as it was posted on their own site.
More details as they come.
I've only just came back to this post to find comments asking for a source however when I went back to the Criterion website the listing had been removed. So as it goes this is still firmly just a rumor. Hopefully Criterion will make an announcement of some kind soon.
As a result of this I would like to apologize to all those who are looking for a source as of now there is no longer one.
This story has also been posted over at Eurogamer Portugal to show further proof.

Rumor - Red Alert 3 Expansion
Rumors have begun to circulate that EA's Los Angeles studio are busy developing an expansion to Red Alert 3 known as "Uprising".
However when EA were questioned about this development instead of shooting the rumor down like you would expect the to do they replied with the following,
"We will have more information in the New Year."
This tells me that they are at least in the thought process of development of this expansion or have even begun development and don't want to let the details slip to early.
Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 was released in October of this year for PC and Xbox 360.
More details as they surface.
