And yet again...

I posted this in my plan, but for those of you who don't read .plans...

"Here's what I know: I just spoke to one of the five people left in the building at Dynamix. Everyone was told to leave at noon and not come back until Monday morning, at which time they'll announce the fate of Dynamix (but we can guess what's going to happen).

This is incredibly sad. There's a lot of talent there and a lot of friends there who are now getting the axe.

One of the pioneers of the game industry are gone thanks to the mismanagement of Sierra. One of the potentially great games of all time is gone thanks to the gross incompetence of the idiot they put in charge... "

heh, he's not bitter towards Dave G at all, is he?

but on a more somber note, ya, it blows ass. it means T2 is basically code-complete now, there won't be any more patches, unless Sierra has something planned for this, which I seriously doubt. T2 has made probably like 85% of all the money it will make already, they aren't gonna go throwing more money into making new patches with a new dev team with a different design house now.

Well I enjoy T2... albiet I only played the beta demo and was running it on a computer that made it look worse then Q2...

But through those means I really saw that it stands up with gameplay and not just graphics.
