In a recent article on Gamasutra, Brad Wardell, CEO of Stardock, said

I actually pitched Atari on a whole idea for a true successor to Star Control

For those of you too young to remember, Star Control was a great space combat sim back in the 286/386 days.  This was taken up a step to Star Control II which proved to be a classic space adventure game of massive proportions featuring the same great space combat functions as the original.  Needless to say, this game was so huge very few people managed to beat it, but pretty much everyone enjoyed Star Control II.  This then evolved into Star Control 3 which was a steaming pile of crap.

Another title the CEO of Stardock mentioned he was interested in reviving was Master of Orion.  For both series, Wardell mentioned the need to return to the roots and keep with the original vision of the game.  In my opinion, it would be terrific to see these titles come back into their former glory.
