What a damn shame.

I just hate when a company who used to deliver such excellence, is now scraping the bottom of the barrel.

FYI, it's only the same company in name. All the people who made Interplay, a la For Gamers By Gamers are gone, heck even their replacements are gone. I'm not shedding a tear for them.

Well, that's been established. They're not getting sold, no one wants them.

EA probably wants them... it seems they want all lately...

Yea, EA is buying everything they can right now.

Troika wouldn't want it now?
Couldn't they get it for a bargain now? Now that Interplay has ruined it and all. Do they not want it? I don't really follow this stuff all that closely. Not like I'm a shareholder, thankfully.

Hmmm, maybe this is why JE left?

Herve: Josh, we can't give you a paycheck for the rest of the year. But we can give you 50 shares of Interplay. How does that sound? Josh, Josh, Josh?

Haha.

I just noticed something :
Look at the Interplay store, their 5 best-sellers are 10$ games.

HAHAHHAHAHA
THE TIME I HAVE FORETOLD FOR EONS HAS FINALLY COME

And you know, Interplay's downfall can be traced directly to the first tubgirl sighting by a BIS developer.

I think we ALL knew this was coming since '01. At least I did. RIght when they went into lame-ass Star-Trek games, UTTER CRAP Console games and so many failed projects, it was a sign.

I think their 2001 year went by with "lame" games, 2002 went by with "Crap" and 2003 is just plain "feces" but hey-that's just me.

FAREWELL MR INTERPLAY!!
