Interplay might get kicked to the curb

Post by Saint_Proverbius »

<strong>[Company -> Update]</strong>

There's a <A href="http://www.gamespot.com/news/2004/04/15 ... tml">funny news item</a> over at <A href="http://www.gamespot.com/">GameSpot</a> about <A href="http://www.interplay.com">Interplay</a> not paying rent for their corporate offices and they're now facing possible eviction from said offices. Here's part of the fun:
<br>
<br><blockquote>Given the amount of money involved, it's not surprising that legal papers have already been served. "On April 9, 2004, the Company's lessor served it with a Three-Day Notice to Pay Rent or Surrender Possession," continued the 8-K filing. "If the Company is unable to pay its rent, it may lose its office space, which would interrupt operations and cause substantial harm to business." With Interplay's ambitious schedule of upcoming releases--which include Kingpin and Descent sequels and a console game based on Fallout--a forced move of its 113 employees would be inconvenient, to say the least. </blockquote>

They are probably talking about that shit-stain game FOBOS, but it's been out for a while so maybe they're working on a second installment, which would make quite a few people go berserk.
George Bush lowered taxes so the Jews could kill Michael Moore.

Yes. Proof being the entire collection of Dreamweaver and Red Orb produced low-budget 'puzzle' games.

Nothing like a slow-moving localized apocalypse to really make you think about proper data backup procedures.
