  Now I pray that Silicon Knights will not be destroyed by the performance of Too Human.

 

if that game hasnt destroyed them in the 10 years of development...it probably wont now.

I think its less of one game killing them and more the lack or readably available loans to fill in the gap while they develop new games. the credit crunch is killing mid and small size business for the most part and studios fall in there

T_T. No more Rogue Squadron I guess. :\



Pixel Art can be fun.

I never understood why so many wester developers wanted to jump into the HD boat? Didn't they know the risks for a small company?

^whatever Sony paid them, it obviously wasn't nearly enough.

They are to set the price, not Sony.

Each studio's final game was a PS3 exclusive.

I dont care what you are implying, the quality of the final product had no relation to it being a PS3 exclusive.  Those games were awful, and would have done poorly on all 3 consoles.

Too damn bad. They were very talented people.

As for "PS3 exclusive sinks studio", don't you think Sony has payed them for it?

 

that's the beauty of Sony as a whole, i don't think they payed any exclusivity deal, they think they are bigger than MS in PS3 vs x360, and the worst is Factor 5 hype PS3 so much, and even talk Lair only possible on PS3 . i don't think MS like that

 

Sony said themselves that for exclusive deal, it is up to developer chooses that, not because Sony gives them money.

but somehow this is like gambling situation for developer it self.

 

now Sony won't help them, and MS not interested in them.

and now we got Two developer  of almost confirmed RIP.

 

The Differences with SK, is MS gives them money for exclusivity and MS is Publish it, that's why Too Human 2 rumored in development.

We need a thread that has 3 main posts that get updated everytime 1 of the following things happens. A: A Developer goes out of business, include a brief history of what the company was working on last and rumored to be working on now, give links to support these. B: Company goes bankrupt, has to lay everyone off and tries to sell name off while under bankruptcy protection. C: Company's stock price falls and a larger company absorbs them only to shut them down.

This generation has been one of the worst ever for this.
