Volition's next game?
Volition is now in the process of making Red Faction 2. Once these are done they will have made 3 games of 3 genres and 3 sequals. What's next? Will they continue making fun and unique games of other genres to broaden their audience and experience? If so, what?
- Real Time Strategy
- Simulation
- Adventure
- Arcade
- Racing
- Sports
- Britney's Dance Moves
Wish I could post a poll...

Red Faction 3 and Summoner 3 would probably be sure-fire bets. Why wouldn't they continue on with the success?

I think it'd be cool if they did a driving game. I like driving games.

Gah! Arcade (and by that, I assume you mean stuff like Need for Speed and Burnout) racing games are the only ones worth playing.

[V] started on Descent...dunno what tocall that, then moved to space sims, then to FPSs and Adventure style RPGs. They could go literally anywhere from here. Personally I'd like to see a [V] RTS - twould be sweet. But wuth THQ running the show now, well we can expect such gaming gems as mission based snowboarding or some pathetically over priced, half developed, aimed at the lowest common denominator franchise game. Grrr.

Great. Just when I thought we were safe from Britney's Dance Party 5, Todd's got to go open his damn mouth.
Seriously, who would you rather look at all day, Parker from Red Faction or the delectable and nubile Britney Spears? You can always just turn the speakers down or something.
