    Been hoping for a freespace 3 for a very long time. Maybe with Star Citizen getting such support it might be possible?

    Pretty sure I read some key Homeworld people weren't at relic any more, but had their own studio.

    Yeah, but THQ owned Relic and the IP, so hopefully somehow it can be rebooted with any team via this sale, although it would of course be good to have the original team.

    Oh man...poor THQ. They battled valiantly to stay in the game but lost. Good luck to those who have lost their jobs and good luck to the companies previously owned by THQ in their future with their new parent corporations.

    When i heard Crytek bought homefront... this supprised me.. I really wonder what ideas they have for it. Anyhow, it's a shame about THQ, atleast most of there employees had been taken on by the companies that bought them out. Was nice of them to do so.
