Oh no. Looking past the recent Gearbox disaster that was Aliens: Colonial Marines, their last acquired IP was Duke Nukem Forever. Before that they were dubiously known for creating the first Brothers in Arms game (which was excellent), and subsequently flying that straight into the ground with an endless series of ever-worsening sequels. If you look at their previous games, they almost all fall somewhere between "mediocre" and "just bad". The only diamond in their track record is the Borderlands series. I'm not sure how Gearbox lost its reputation for strict mediocrity via Borderlands alone, I'm still very skeptical about their game development prowess - and certainly very skeptical about any claims Randy Pitchford makes about the quality of their games, after his breathless demos of both Duke Forever and Aliens. Honestly, I'm glad they're repackaging Homeworld/2 for Steam and such, but I'd rather have no Homeworld 3 than let Gearbox helm it.
