And given the time frame, it'll either be a very late current generation game, or a near launch next generation game.
Also given his history, I'd look for PS2/3 development.

A mouse and keyboard is so much more versatile.
Personally, I disagree. Wholeheartedly. Unfortunately, most of the gaming world seems to currently agree with him, aside from a few stalwarts. I was sad when the PC world lost Warren Spector.
