I will be the first of many to yell:

FREESPACE 3!

And then I will be dissappointed.

Could be another Red Faction game?

Or Saints Row 3?

We have no way of knowing.

But I like this advertising technique: it keeps fans of all V games speculating, talking about it.

I wouldn't be overly surprised at a saint's row 3. The second was such a success, it makes sense for them to go for the magic again.

Red Faction 2 was kind of a bust to some. Saints Row 2 was wildly successful. Don't be shocked.

Did that whole thing with Interplay and such ever get settled? Weren't they tangled up with Fallout or something?

No, Interplay and Bethesda were tangling over Fallout.  To the best of my knowledge Volition wasn't involved in that.

Not sure.  Bethesda wasn't seeking monetary damages from Interplay, probably because they wouldn't get any as Interplay is broke.

...Interplay is broke.

Yes until they sold the license for FreeSpace to Volition at a cheaper price which payed for their court fees while Volition works on reviving the Space Sim Genre with a groundbreaking ending to the FreeSpace Saga!

OK.... or it's time to move on with my life, I think that this was a step backwards for me  :nervous:

Interplay can't be broke I have 15k shares riding on that not happening.
