Did I hear Seagal say that Attrition isn't out yet? That's good news, because it means we hopefully will get a proper release soon!

And he said something about Under Siege 3, normally he says when he had the money it comes. But now he was more positive, as if they are more active on part 3!

He did mention US3 but I don't see how it really fit in with the other two after so long? It won't happen, let's face it, but if it did... ?
