I know we're not supposed to be getting excited, but, a question for anyone with any techie-sense: If this whole deal goes through, what might be a best-case scenario of when the game "could" be up and running (this is with no glitches or anything getting in the way)? Could it be measured in mere weeks or months?
And, still going with the assumption that it WILL be going through, now, being more realistic, what might the other side look like (not being as optimistic as the above guesstimate)? Like months to years? As in, we're more likely to see one of the spiritual successors come out before the game could return?
I know I'm asking a HUGE "What If" here...but, not being techie-minded at all, I was wondering how something like this would work.
