I finally destoryed the Shivan armada and all I got was this lousy T shirt.

 
Where is the god damn Freespace license?

Do we really need another MMORPG?

Never, if THQ won't buy Freespace License and there is about 5% change that they are interested buying rights

Now that you have listed them, list how many have been made.

Think of the number that fail, though.   Warhammer, Earth & Beyond, Mythica spring to mind, but there's a lot more that pass into obscurity.  And many, many, competitors.

 Plus the initial investment is pretty big, so you need a stable long term strategy to support it and add bandwidth, etc, as it goes - Interplays finances are shaky enough as is, how are they going to support a game for the 6 months or more it may take to break even.

 
Took the words off the tip of my tongue, aldo. :p

Also, all those games you listed are MMORPG's, not Strategy games.
