Why too bad? Gamers should be ecstatic.

Maybe he was referring to the hundreds maybe thousands of employees now out of a job?

Dear Stardock,
Would you please acquire the "Homeworld" franchise before EA or anyone else get their mitts on it.
Give the IP to Iron Clad Games, and let's get "Homeworld 3" underway.

Hell, I'd even back a Kickstarter version.

Well, Relic's been trying to get Homeworld back...

Is Barking Dog Studios still around? If they are, I'd actually prefer them to do "HW3", though the developers of "Cataclysm" have no doubt moved on. Be good if Relic did buy Lot 2, though they are no doubt fiscally tied up with "CoH 2".
