Red Faction Further Action

This always feels a little like "Publisher Announced Sequel To Commercially Successful Game" shocka, but - yes - THQ have confirmed that there's going to be a Red Faction 3. We knew there was going to be a further Red Faction game since last year, but we're now sure that it's a proper "III". Also, Volition will be back on coding duties and it'll be out (er) in the coming financial years, it seems. Which basically means any time from April until March 2009. Other details are a tad loose. We live in hope they get the modern take on the GeoMod to actually do something nifty. Or that Volition somehow trick THQ, making them think they're developing Red Faction III, when in fact they're developing Freespace 3 ("See, THQ Suit Guy - it's got a "III" in it. And it's Sci-Fi. Same game, honest").
