I am becoming less saddened as the days between our union grow further still. Here, within the ethereal concepts in which I am trapped, I am no longer certain of my existence. They say, I don't look like myself anymore. Master Yves says that I am "totally re-engineered" ... that I have come to use "the Splinter Cell engine" -- but how should I know? How should anyone know? I am not like the others; and I make no claim to being important or "major," as it is said. My maker has cast me out of its fiscal 2010-11 release calendar. I am alone. But I am okay with that.

Yours in perpetuity,
I Am Alive

I am saddened to announce that I, your infrequently detailed yet conceptually interesting first-person survival game, have yet again been rendered tardy in my arrival. Though uncertainty has clouded my being since the day of my first exposure to the harsh and unnecessarily snarky world, know that I Am Alive and in the care of Ubisoft until the beginning of the 2010 fiscal year. Please expect me at some time between April 2010 and March 2011.

Oh, and if you don't mind, I'm bringing my shy friend along -- just call him Ghost Recon 4 for now. I'm sure you'll find his company just as exciting, even if I leave the room and create one of those awkward friend-of-a-friend silences. Is it weird that I'm worried that you'll like him more than you'll like me?

Yours in perpetuity,
I Am Alive

My dearest followers,

It's me, Ubisoft's forthcoming first-person survival game. You know, I Am Alive. We met at E3, remember? I briefly exposed myself in front of you and left you somewhat confused ... but curious. You've been wondering about me, haven't you? We'll get to know each other in due time, it's just that ... well, I lied. I know I said I'd meet up with you in March. And I know that neither of us believed it, you with your "skepticism" and me with my nebulous features and infrequent public appearances.

So, I'm going to be running late. Rest assured -- I Am Alive -- but I won't be leaving the office until Ubi's 2009-2010 fiscal year, which runs from April 2009 through March 2010. I know it's hard for you to understand, but it's for the best. I just ... I just can't let people see me covered in so many bugs. Despite my most fervent wishes, I can't make an exception for you -- it would be a fatal exception.

Yours truly,
I Am Alive
