2008 Lunar Lander Challenge Teams Announced

anzha writes "The X Prize Foundation announced on Monday the competing teams for the 2008 Northrop Grumman Lunar Lander Challenge. This year there are ten teams competing for the two prizes. The XPF has a nice matchup utility to compare the different teams' rockets. The one downside to this year though is that the competition will not have an accompanying X Prize Cup. It will be webcast, though. Full disclosure: I am on a team."

Quoting: "When GamesIndustry.biz then pointed out that it puts the Age of Empires franchise in a similar position as Halo after Bungie departed from their partnership with Microsoft, that's when Spencer dropped this intriguing tidbit: 'Well, there's more than one team building Halo games right now. There are more than two or three teams building Halo things right now. Some of them we will own, some of them we won't. It's never been, for me, about who you own or don't own — it's about working with the best creative talent in the industry,' he said."

It was supposed to be an easy three points and therefore goal difference was the key - and so is the plus three a good enough return from a game that was as easy as it had been forecast?

I'm not sure just what purpose the league games serve in the CL pre-Christmas stage. Is it to weed out all the teams that the European hierarchy deem 'weak', or should we say, 'not profitable enough', so the knockout stages can actually start filling grounds? Is it just a money generator in terms of the TV rights, and I guess by default, a way to ensure the safe passage of the 'big' teams? Whatever, it serves little purpose to ourselves who although we've gained three points and a plus three goal difference, have lost two players who are key to further success.
