Beyond Gears of War 3 for 2010, the January 2009 issue of the future-uncertain EGM contains a handful of other rumors to pique your interest (via NeoGAF). Top of that list? A spiritual sequel to Rez is coming from creator Tetsuya Mizuguchi, who can't make an actual sequel beacuse the IP is owned by Sega. Mizuguchi's Q Entertainment recently announced a music-infused project codenamed "QJ" for Wii, though it may be unrelated.
Additionally, the issue also asserted that Spielberg's mysterious EA Project LMNO is on hold at the moment. At the end of October, EA denied speculation that there had been layoffs related to the title. The remaining rumor-mongering includes a new Rifts-licensed game in 2010 (the last one was on N-Gage) and a large co-publisher for Tecmo's PlayStation 3 exclusive Quantum Theory.

Spiritual sequel, whatever. Just make it so I can trip balls and it'll be worth it.

The richness of the Rifts universe makes it great for potential video game spinoffs imo. I mean it vastly increases the chances of the game having a solid story and a thought out universe in which to have said story take place... something that most games lack.
Plus, after years of playing Rifts when I was a kid... I have to say I'd love to revisit it in video game form. As long as it looks like the cover-art for the books does that is...

Holy Moly! Is Rifts still around? I haven't played Rifts since junior high. I gotta say though, the Rifts universe would be ripe for a good videogame, maybe Fallout 3 style.
