Now that I have your attention, I think we need to come to terms with the fact that TFB no longer need our help to get the rights for the name Star Control back from Accolade Infogames Atari. Truth is if they wanted to do a new Star Control they could. The only thing they don't have is the name. If they were serious they'd say, "Thanks for the support, but Atari won't budge, so we're releasing it as 'Revenge of the Ur-Quan" and here's a demo movie." Have you seen that yet? Me neither.
What they do need our help with is wanting to do it. We need to keep them buried under request begging them to make that sequel, or even better, to re-launch the franchise.
Nuf said.

And they keep telling us that if we write lots of letters then they can show Activision that it is commercially viable

To be honest, I'm not sure I would like to see another commercial SC game, having in mind the esthetics and the taste of nowadays gamers. It would probably end up being a FPS by some strange set of event and named Star Control Arena: Extinction!
I only see a new SC liked by the fans being made as an indie game out of love and passion. Having in mind PRIII and FF are men in their mature years with families and bills to pay, I don’t see this happening.

The point was made on Dueling Analogs today that no matter what the fans say, that doesn't guarantee a commercially successful game, and that the producers are smart to give the fans the finger.
I kinda agree.
But truth is if they did announce SC3 it would be a giant spoogefest. I've been pent up for years waiting for it.
