There have been several ridiculously non-existant games offered for sale in such catalogs over the years.

Look in the forums view:
Space Empires: IV Gold Beta Test

If you remove the letter I, that becomes:
Space Empires: V Gold Beta Test

Coincidence? I think not!

wow, so if they're secretly testing SEV-Gold, then SEV must already be done! they're probably just timing the release date so that it wont have to compete with Worms 3D!

if there offering a pre-order on a non-released game, doesn't that make it a scam and illegal?
