(Edit) Chris Matthews said about 17 hours later:

From Introversion’s site:

“Nevertheless, despite our best efforts, some readers or journalists may be tempted to view these screenshots as some kind of visual indication of the final game. Some may even go so far as to infer suggested gameplay from said media. Worst of all, websites that should know better may decide to publish these images as the “first screenshots of Introversion’s new game”.

If you feel any of the above happening to you, please listen very carefully. You are mistaken.”

Tell that to Montyphy.

There’s a short preview article over at GameSetWatch as well.

    None of that is substantiated, unless I’ve missed something on the Introversion front…

    This looks like a barebones implementation of the CityEngine (http://www.centralpictures.com/ce/index.html) presented on SIGGRAPH in the previous years…

    Even the three roadpatterns are following that paper ;].

    I’m finding it hard to determine if I should be flattered or insulted that you not only singled out my post from the barrage of other joke suggestions that are spread across Chris’ blogs, but you treated it as fact until being given a quote from the first blog of the series.

    Should I assume that you only read the third blog?

    Should we assume they’re really the last of the bedroom programmers?

    I thought they had offices now?

    At Moonpod on the other hand we literally do work out of a spare bedroom. Not that this is a good thing :) I’d love to have a posh office…

    It’s nice to see Introversion taking on a big project again, although sad that we won’t see it for two years.

    Pretentious British Man - that’s my favourite reply to anything ever. :)
