At this link you find some pictures and a description of te upcoming "update" of PCM 2010. Unluckily for the many of you is taken from the "gazzetta dello sport" so it's in italian.
Since it's just PCM10 with the new Giro stages and Italian commentary, it's not all that interesting, in my opinion What I'm wondering is who's willing to buy it.
Somewhere in the article i read that they're selling it at 39.99€...another reason to skip it and wait something like 2 moths and buy the 2011.
I think that before the end of the Giro they're going to sell it with the the gazzetta for 9.99€.
Poor Cyanide workers, working on a game that no one will buy istead of working on 2011
Well - it's PCM10. I doubt that much extra work has been needed by Cyanide. As far as I understand, it's mainly a work of the Italian distributor rather than Cyanide.
Of course, there's the Giro 2011 stages, but 1) they were made by the community and improved by Cyanide, 2) they had to do them for PCM11 anyway.

yeah you're right. it's only a strategical movement to try to sell some copies of the giro version during the race and try to make it popular even among the casual gamer (that's why they publicizing it through the gazetta). in this way they're hoping to push even the sells of PCM 2011.
Am i wrong?
Pretty much. They release PCM in June and advertise it as the game of the Tour de France. Now they have an agreement with the Giro aswell, it makes commercial sense to aim to widen their Italian market with a Giro version released now.
You'd be mad to buy it if you already have PCM10, and even if you dont, PCM10 is still probably a cheaper option - but theyre targeting people who wont have played PCM before, so wont know that.
