The next version of Chessmaster (due to be released in about four months) is
going to have true 3D boards and pieces that are, IMHO, incredible. I would
definitely go so far as to say they are "photo-realistic". There will be
approximately 30 different boards and 30 different piece sets (more or less)
that you will be able to combine, size and rotate any way that you like. There
will also be about 10 "flat" piece sets, for people who like to play on a 2D
board.

Although there has been very little optimization that has been done, I could
send any who are interested some screenshots. Just send me a private e-mail at
jmerlino@ubisoft.com if you are interested.
