Oh no, not the Geo Mod discussion!?!? Hahaha, it is the unanswerable question! I saw (V) guys going back and forth on this. It's insane. Literally no one seems to know exactly what the state of Geo mod is.....seems like a kinda important thing to know. I bet the bean counters know. Knobby(V) needs to ask them while whooping their asses, as he does on occasion.
HOLD ON! If Volition actually still owns Geo mod then Nordic would have to license it from them since they are technically the publishers of all the past Red Faction games.....retroactively....that'd be weird.....however that might have been in the contract.....so they own the contents....just not the core game system.....derp derp....that might not have been such a great deal. They in no way could reproduce the Geo mod. I guess they still get the money from every Steam copy of Red Faction sold...yippy....that and $4 will by you an iced coffee. Boy....that actually sucks. Dead Island: Rip Tide and SR 4 are both made from previous installments assets to save time and money. In theory Nordic could basically mod RF guerrilla and make a new game....however, all the licenses would have to be renewed....including Geo mod.
Back on topic....yes. THQ has jiggled it's last purple dong. Farwell THQ.....you.....lasted longer then you probably should of. Thanks for giving me someone to complain about other then EA.
