Didn't the creators of Age of Empires get shut down by Microsoft some time ago.

If they do this, they should have a reputable developer to develop it. If not, it seems kind of risky to release a new one by an unproven dev,  with a new control scheme, which, to be honest, has yet to prove its abilities. Then again, if it has keyboard control schemes and kinect support, alongside a multiplat release on the 360 and pc, it would still sale well based on the brand name and recognition. I could be overestimating the Age of Empires brand recognition though...

Ensemble did yes, Ms owns the rights as they owned Ensemble. Everything Ensemble is Ms, Robot Entertainment who did the nitty gritty was part of Ensemble, then they are getting someone else to finish it off. 

Age Online is a fact. That is not the argument it is whether it will be on Kinect or not. 

When most casuals think of that game, (those that have) think of age of empires.

Is it out now, or still in development? Is it pay to play or free? I might be interested in playing thios game on my pc.
