Sony closes down another studio (what do they have left? Californians?). With this, the remains of Psygnosis are completely gone. Not like they did anything of worth after Psygnosis.

They have Bungie.

No they don't. They're too afraid of "overdelivery" and are begging to be axed.

Alone in the Dark 2024 wasn't an entirely terrible game, so it's kinda sad situation. Then again, the writing was on the wall. The game looked AA, yet for some reason was sold for $60, and the marketing campaign was less than stellar.

Fair enough./ I didn't play it (yet), but monstrosities like Embracer failing can only be good for gaming in general.

They'll pick up again near the end of the year and next Jan. We also have many companies still in the midst of creating 6-7 year duds that will get cleansed after their failed releases.

Haven't you heard, everything is being made for the 'modern audience'. They say if you clap 5 times and then lick your own arse infront of a mirror, the 'modern audience' will appear behind you and sodomize you into bankruptcy.

Also, I'm sorry. You made me do this:

I wouldn't take it for -100%.

You may as well not bother replying to my posts if it's to argue anything except concrete facts or your personal opinion. I still probably won't see it.
