Well, I can't give away all the secrets... but, here's a few tidbits.
A super prison is a natural. I feel that this is safe to talk about because I've frankly already discussed it in the past. This will probably be a larger, commercial release product instead of a freebie and will be held off a bit down the road for one good reason of quality- I have the rare opportunity to see the operations up a specialized correctional facility due to an internship. No point in creating now when I will walk out a handful of months from now with a personal insight into what I'm developing.
I worked corrections for many years, two jails, a medium security state prison, and for a private training firm that provided specialized correctional training (everything from basic cell extraction and riot control, to hostage rescue operations), so I'm always interested in seeing people's takes on prisons, and jails.

As far as other stuff.... the first thing I ever worked on for FGU will be coming out as a commercial release down the road... can't say much about it but imagine a good book that also helps flesh out the surrounding world stuff and then some (such as organizations, new vehicles, etc.)
Sounds good, keep us updated, and let us know when you can say more.

There's a technoshamanism/electronic culture product in the works.... actually a very serious minded one, believe it or not.
This sound pretty interesting, as I'd really like to see some sort of mystic themed release.

Several new villains- one thing I use V&V for is a creativity jogger... I like to randomly roll up characters simply to present myself with new ideas.
You're not the only one, I've got a huge back stock of V&V stuff sitting on my hard drive.

As for the next freebie- there's going to be a snazzy dinner nightclub spot turned criminal hotspot- complete with tons of new stats for common folk.
Nice addition, any idea of when we can expect to see it?

Do keep in mind though that this is not a list of the "only things" coming out.... not by far. I'm not the only designer working in the V&V interest.
If you're in contact with them, mind seeing if they'd be willing to drop by? And let Scott know, we'd love to hear from him too. Also, do you guys plan to share your views on any other topics we've got posted?
