It is coming :D (This I know for a fact- not sure if it'll carry the TA name, tho'- that's still in contention w/ a Korean group that had optioned for the rights, but didn't follow through).

link?

Is this what you were talking about?

Starcraft. Leave the actualy game alone except give it a 3D engine and some of the good features of WC3. Like being able to give resources to allies.

Mechwarrior 2: Mercenaries. Micromanaging your unit and taking them into combat and getting salvage is cool stuff. Mech4 does not count because microsoft sucks. EA was going to release a massive multiplayer online game called Battletech: 3025 and it was canned after beta testing, my guess in MS bought them out or legal didn't go through. That would have been amazing. More missions, mechs, and explosive gameplay would have made it rock.

All Final Fantasy games should come to the PC (X, X-2, IX and XII, all others are on SNES or PC, too).
Albion should be remade because I can't bear 60Hz and I couldn't finish it before.
Time to continue Starcraft, Descent Freespace 2, Day of the Tentacle.
About time to make a worthy Transport Tycoon Deluxe remake in 3D.
Remake Lands of Lore 1 because only my 512KB Trident Vcard could run it.
AND Remake X-Com 1 and 2 Windows-natively with new graphics maybe even without changing gameplay because the new clone was sacreliege.

I didn't have a link (insider information ;) ) and no, I hadn't seen that post. But the post is correct from what I know. Last I heard, CT was trying to get the rights back from the Korean group since their option on TA had expired. Apparently that's fell through according to Snooker in that post (who apparently either works for GPG or, like me, has inside information).

/Edit:
I looked at that thread further up and Snooker purports himself to be Jeremy Snook, Online Producer @ Gas Powered Games. From the sound of it, I believe him. The RTS they're working on has been on-going for quite awhile, actually. Just because they didn't announce it, didn't mean it wasn't happening ;)

BattleTech - The Crescent Hawks' Inception

Man this game owned!

The following battletech games I think were crap. For those that don't know, this was an excellent RPG.
