Will "MoO" Franchise Be Sold? Put an end to popups!

From Apolyton's 'Miscellaneous' section from the end of last month:

quote:
In 2003, game developer Stardock Systems (SS) decided to delay the release of Galactic Civilizations for the PC a month so as to give the strategy market some breathing room between it and similarly themed and chief competitor Master of Orion III from Quicksilver Software. In the end, most popular and critical opinion put GalCiv ahead of MoO3 in acceptance and critique. Now, the SS Founder/President who served as GalCiv`s Project Lead -- and now on its sequel, Dread Lords -- has told Apolyton Civilization Site (ACS) that his company is "in negotiations" to presumably acquire the rights to the Master of Orion franchise.

"We don’t know yet", Wardell says when the first two words in the competing series` title are mentioned to him. "We have an agreement on the money. There’s just a lot of contract issues that have to be resolved still".

Wow. So Galciv3 might turn out to be titled MoO4? That's... interesting. Well, StarDock, if they did a MoO, would do an truly interstellar job of it.
