    Emergent Game Technologies goes bottoms-up

    I for one didn't see this coming, but I haven't been as up to date about the situation. If Bethesda is still able to customize the engine code to their needs I don't see why they would stop using it. If someone buys the assets for Gamebyro, future use by current licensor's really depends on...

    New Vegas: The Movie

    Voice acting aside...what the heck was that?!? No footage no nothing, I don't even...argh! Not sure on the C&D thing either, settings aside, "Indie" projects have generally been grey territory, guess it just depends on the company.

    FOOL developer quotes and court case update

    I have read most of them and it's difficult to ignore not all of them provide relevant information. As I've previously stated, I haven't claimed my opinion on the matter to be fact. Trolls, funny that. You're the one that resorted to name calling and personal attacks when I was largely...

    FOOL developer quotes and court case update

    It seems the real Corith has revealed himself. Why do you think I am an investor? I have read the original contract and yes the rules were pretty strict and some of them were perhaps attainable. But did you miss the point where the only alternative was bankruptcy? Even if Interplay loses...

    The Vault is monstrous, and other stuff

    Wikia technically owns it and I think they also get the ad revenue but maybe they have a split program between founders of individual Wiki's and themselves? I'd imagine it's pretty expensive to run though.

    Is Microsoft ready for a post-PC world?

    The lines are always blurring, remember when we had pagers? Later we had cell phones and pagers, cell phones then advanced to include pager functionality, now how many of us have pagers? Very few. Or even game consoles/X in 1 sets and DVD players. Will the same happen to PC's? Perhaps to...

    Is Microsoft ready for a post-PC world?

    Microsoft has been in the cell phone market for over a decade, long before Apple or Google even thought of it. Windows Mobile was on top for a few years and even had a pretty good market-share until the iPhone and Android hit at which point they've been facing a lot of competition. Windows...

    FOOL developer quotes and court case update

    Sorry for the late reply, "Fry lemmings from Raging bull", wtf? Anyway, Lets get something straight here, I'm not discounting your experiences, stories, etc. For all I know, they could have some validity to them. Infact, I sympathize with your situation, you managed to work your way up...

    Bethesda Podcast #4 and New Vegas performance tests

    It was actually ported by 4J Studios, small Scottish dev who has not only done some great console ports but fantastic N64 HD conversions.

    FOOL developer quotes and court case update

    Not sure how this can be searched for. How do you know the money was from the WCI and not his own? CEO's generally make good money. I don't think this is against the rules, and Majorem is from 2004 is it not? Titus was liquidated in 2005/2006, maybe even after that. A bankruptcy judge in...

    What do you mean? Anyway, I proposed the proposer of the opposite [to yours] proposal provide some proof.

    FOOL developer quotes and court case update

    Usually the person to proposes a new theory brings the facts, I wouldn't even know where to begin looking for proof for something like this!

    How is that proof insider trading, fraud, etc are taking place?

    FOOL developer quotes and court case update

    Yes, back in the day I was this (||) close to renting the game on boxart alone. I think I dodged a bullet. :lol: I think it actually sold decently for a game of that era. Herve's business capabilities are simply down to what era you look at but without context you might not see the...

    FOOL developer quotes and court case update

    Masthead has private investors (going by their site) so there is a possibility that they were able to raise the $30 million required. Nothing far fetched about that at all, they have been working on Earthrise for quite some time now and as we all know, you need a few millions to develop an MMO...

    FOOL developer quotes and court case update

    I checked the dates and they did report it, publicly it was two days before the due date of April 4th but there could have been more going on behind the scenes before that. http://interplay.com/about/article.php?id=26 Why can't Masthead have $30 million? They do have investors after all...

    FOOL developer quotes and court case update

    Shards is also a programming term for databases so I assume that's where it came from? I believe the rumor is Masthead has provided the cash required. You don't have to report it right away, just at the end of your quarter IIRC. There's a chance the funding requirements were met by...

    FOOL developer quotes and court case update

    That's what Bethesda says, Interplay says otherwise. It's impossible to know until further details are released.

    Edge interviews Eric Caen on FOOL

    Would this still happen in December or will the case be going well into 2011?

    FOOL developer quotes and court case update

    I assume they would honor the Fallout 3/NV storylines to a certain extent but the focus might be on Interplay's Fallout titles? Same way that Fallout 3 made references to the originals here and there but largely focused on their own version of Fallout 3? I'm sure the only ones who would be...
