<strong>[Company -> Article]</strong> - More info on <a href="http://wikipocalypse.duckandcover.cx/in ... tle=Troika Games">Company: Troika Games</a>

There
is apparently an email circulating which announces a liquidation sale
for <a href="http://www.troikagames.com">Troika's</a>
property.  Nothing has been confirmed yet, but the following
is the text of the email.
<blockquote><em>LIQUIDATION SALE

After 7 exciting years, and 3 published games, Troika Games is closing its doors forever!

EVERYTHING MUST GO!

* Computers - P3 & up

* Monitors 13" - 21"

* Desks

* Chairs

* Conference Tables

* Filing Cabinets

* Cubicle System

* Canon Copier

* and much more!

Saturday, Feb. 19th 9am - 1pm only 17991 Cowan in Irvine (Cash & Carry)

Let our loss be your gain.

Please feel free to forward this email to anyone that may be interested in the sale.

</em></blockquote>I am sincerely hoping that this email is just a
hoax.  We've got some hope to cling on to seeing as how there
hasn't been an official announcement yet, but with the rumors that were
circulating before, things are looking grim.

It's a joke, i'd bet.
The email is anonymous, and surely they'd make some official announcement about the company's future before selling the chairs.

Arcanum, Temple of Elemental Evil and Vampire. None of them are particularly good. They all had potential though.

I propose a road-trip to 17991 Cowan in Irvine. That should settle things and give us a chance to bitch-slap Tim Cain. You know, as a sign of respect.

Arcanum, Temple of Elemental Evil and Vampire aren't good, but they're not all that bad either.

The email does look fake, however the source is fairly reliable.

Also, marshmonkey posted on NMA more or less confirming the death of Troika.

I saw that. I'm sure an official announcement isn't far off if the email was real. How depressing.
