Titus and interplay are dead.

the title say everything. i don't have much information, just saw this at the last page of a free magazine, nothing more.

oh well, hope someone live near one of those compganies. :smt043

 

rofl

:smt043


....Mmmmmm this is somewhat very old news m8.

...Maybe the mag u read it in is a collectors piece now?

 

really? :smt043

they are dead since...?

 

I just found out today from gamesindustry.biz

 

Here u go a quick history lesson for yer...

Interplay founded = 1985

...Titus buy in with a majority stake = 1999

...Both filed for bankruptcy = Early 2004

 

oh well, it's not a big lost. the only game i really enjoyed from titus was wild guns on the snes. i can't remember any good titles from them apart of this one.

i just hope more dev units and betas joined the collector circle. :smt045

yeah, my magazine was still hot when i took it, two days ago (and it's a free magazine that is released every week) so it's certainly not a old news!

 

Bankrupt does not=going out of business. There's a [rather large] difference. ;-)

 

Wild Guns was a JEWEL of a game. Great graphics, pretty cool gameplay, but also a really rocking soundtrack.

I'd kill for a copy.

It was made by Natsume - who also made Shadow of the Ninja for the NES, also a pretty okay game with very good music.

Natsume really really rocked, back in the day.

Are they still making games?

And I must say, the one good console game by Interplay was Rock and Roll Racing. It also had pretty cool sound for the day, and the gameplay was quite fun.

 

I'll miss the MDK series. Hopefully Bioware can gain the rights to that since they made the most recent in the series.

 

best interplay was red neck rampage

 

Lol, yeh, thats soooo true, I nearly forgot how damn funny that game was...

...The best use of chickens in any game so far imo !!!

 

XerdoPwerko Natsume still makes the Harvest Moon games

 

GOOD!!! :drinkers:
