There's a Lords of the Realm III Designer Diary on the Vivendi Universal Games Forums written by David "Zeb" Cook to fill us in on the "final leg here, coming around the final curve, in the last inning (let's see how many more metaphors I can mutilate), on the last lap, down to the 2-minute warning, and going into the final round" of development of their upcoming medieval simulation sequel. Also, there's a Middle-Earth Online Diary on the official website written by marc_taro production designer on the upcoming MMO Lord of the Rings game. There is also a team letter with another glimpse at how development is progressing. Thanks Frans.
