I suppose westwood - now in name only as far as I know, is owned by EA. They can repackage any game that has no studio - commissioned producer of its own, with the Westwood name. Or just cobble together a design team and have them work under the Westwood banner.
Like Rare who made the most awesome games for the N64 - Westwood games would bare almost no similarity to the games that made the original company famous.
Oh well. People sell. out, and shit happens.
I think I got some of the above a little mixed up, feel free to put it right if you know any better.

I'm just gonna stop with the Westwood crap, but honestly I have 500000 that I could have had it assigned to Westwood and its employees, but by what your saying that EA owns every right of Westwood, am thinking that EA will never revive Westwood, thinking that Westwood someday again could become a major problem for EA, by all means EA sucks, sorry I just had to say it and it feels damn good!!!

are you just boasting about money that you dont have or are you genuinely saying you have half a million to give to EA, who probably make more than that every month anyway....
If you are being serious I would suggest getting in touch with Petroglyph games and funding them, it wont have the C&C name or the Renegade name, but they could produce a similar style of game, assuming there is sufficient demand for it....
EDIT: Or donate it to BHS, which Crimson suggested while I wrote this ^^

Or, instead of petroglyph, get the old westwood team back together just for the purpose of finishing off the two[?] remaining games that were planned. ie. Renegade 2 and Tiberium twilight.

$500,000 wouldn't even touch the sides of the hole that kind of money would leave in your bank account.

$500,000? Lol, that probably could have been almost sufficient 10 years ago, but now it takes millions to make a "major" game, more or less depending on if you license an engine or pay a dozen programmers. An engine like Doom 3, Unreal Engine 2 (or 3), or Source themselves cost about $400,000+ to license, plus royalties. (The slightly aging Quake 3 Arena engine costs about $250,000 to license right now, Unreal Engine 2 is $350,000 with royalties)
$500,000 would be enough to license an engine, and pay a team of about 2-5 for one year, with maybe a little bit left over.

no that kind of money does not grow on trees, or anything like that, and yes my twin brother is a very dumb fuckin moron, and yes he has that money, hes taking that after my dad, because my dad gave him land and my brother sold his land back home, and again, he has that kind of money, but do you think I will let him do this rediculous thing! 500000CAN, I will not let him give that much money to some stupid game, he just donated 100000 to hospital for sick children, do you think I will let him give 500000 to some game, I understand that he lives with Renegade and westwood games, but that much money is rediculous to give out to anybody!!
End of the story!!!

If you really have money..
How about donating some of it to Blackhand Studios to keep the RenGuard network alive? It costs hunderts of dollars every month, and we pay most of it on our own..
