Translated letter hints at new WWII game

Sept 12, 2007

We love getting post, especially if it has Top Secret written on it in big red pen, so imagine our faces when an envelope stamped with those immortal letters was delivered in this morning's post.

Upon opening it however we were less than overjoyed to find all the %26ldquo;Top Secret%26rdquo; information was in German. After trying our best to translate it ourselves, and failing miserably, we contacted a German friend who did a much better job.

Thetranslation reads as follows:

Operation : Wintersonne

This project is approved by the Ministry of War

Synopsis: Due to latest scientific knowledge a detailed, and in several parts divided, work can be considered feasible. Assuming the availability of required resources and materials as well as available job performance is satisfactory, a positive result is expected within an adequate term ( to be ascertained by the project leader).

The Reichsarbeitsdienst is not supposed to provide any resources for this project. Additional scientists from different fields are needed as the project is partly about basic research. Premises and technical equipment will be bought from the budget provided by the Ministry of War.

The progress of this project is to be monitored in the regular and below mentioned intervals as the status demands a positive result within a certain term.

James Jarvis
Executive Producer, GR Video

Hi I'm James or JJ if you like, I'll answer to both. I'm the Executive producer for GR video which means I've had at least a part in all the hot moving pictures you'll find on the site (even if that part was just saying, yes that's a good video). I also produce the Future Games Show and Golden Joystick Awards. Away from the office you'll either find me playing Fortnite, or walking my dog. I'm better at one than the other, I'll let you decide which.
