ITT: developers that left us too soon
They never left us, they just changed their name.
In retrospect they made so many fucking excellent games over the span of four years that maybe they left at the right time. Basically Sega's Rareware.
>>316541775
do you know if we'll ever see another Jet Set Radio game?
>>316541964
Nope. And you wouldn't want a new one in the current gaming industry.
Still hurts 2bh
>>316541964
I believe Sega can still be convinced of doing that at some campacity. If NiGHTS got a new game, Jet Set may find a way. It won't be likely, but it definitely has more of a chance than most of Sega's IP given how relatively popular it is.

Rip in pieces
BLUR
>>316541898
I knew them for the formula and wipeout titles, never knew they actually founded Lemmings. The 2nd one is such a perfect fucking game
>>316540142
Motorstorm was the shit!
>>316542046
That seems overly cynical, those some of the most fun I've ever had with a console.

>For the sake of our fans, and for the future of the game industry at large, we hope that the demise of groups like ours will not dissuade other game developers and publishers from the path of innovation.
>While doing better looking versions of last year's hit titles may be a short term path to success, to thrive and grow the game industry must take some creative risks and continue to innovate.
>Although LookingGlass has fallen, we pass on the flag to those who are up to the challenge.
I didn't need this tonight.
>Oni 2 never
>Marathon 4 never
>Actual Destiny never

>>316542268
I never actually played that one, but what a cool title to go out on. Fur Fighters and Geometry Wars are my shit though.
>when based Trip still was the owner
>>316542241
that fucking logo, brings me back to playing THPS3 as a kid (never kept up with the series but will always love that one).
>no more Timesplitters
>>316542860
literally who
Clover
They may not have been the best games, but they didnt deserve this.
Prey 2 never
Might as well be fucking dead without Cookie.
>>316543471
Prey is a masterpiece
>>316543471
Thanks bethesda for being the scummest shit ever.
How underage is /v/ to make it 40 posts without this being posted? FUck you.
>assimilated into nothingness by EA
They're going to die, I can feel it. Could have made a really great bigger budget game too if they got a chance. But it seems like it's been canned.
>>316544028
never heard of them
>all muh tears
>>316544028
RTS games aren't exactly popular you autist.
Just kill me.
>>316544250
don't ever say that to a Korean or they'll find you floating in a river somewhere
>>316544420
Even there they've been overtaken by Mobashit.
>>316544406
>Try to get into SH series
>Play 1
>Really like it
>SH 2 is like 200 dollars for PC
>Emulates like hot dogshit
>SH3 the same
>HD Collection is trash
>Have to play 4 on my 360 through emulation
Kill me.
>>weren't bad enough dudes
>>316543623
I hope you are referring to Iguana entertainment and not acclaim the publisher.
Acclaim was shit.
>>316542498
Still exists as Bend studio but is forever stuck developing for a shit portable system.
>>316542661
Bungie was never good though.
>>316544420
>Koreans having shit taste
Nothing to see there.
>>316545220

>>316542498
What about Halo 4 and 5?
>>age of out of business
>>316544227
>>316544227
>>316545315
Acclaim went bankrupt because of shady shit behind the scenes.
What they put out the streets wasn't their work.
It was the work of small groups being pushed around with no way of fighting back.
Acclaim was ea before ea went full jew.
>>316540003
They weren't "good" per say, but they had potential
You were too pure for this world
>>316545409
meh
they always made tryhard shit
>>sw battlefront lol
>>manly tears
>>316543249
Dungeon Keeper, Populous, Theme Hospital, Syndicate, Sim Theme Park
>>316547127
Dungeon Keeper is the only one i recognize.
>>316546404
But damn if they didn't know how to make a good licensed game.
>>316547265

Literally the antithesis of the current industry.

>>316540003

>>316548585

>>316543201

>>316547408

>>316543498
>no nome mechassault.
>>316548585
yep!
but the ps2 one only, never played the dreamcast version (which supposedly has no voice acting?)
>>316550284
yeah they just say bark or meow or what ever the fuck viggo was saying
>>316550284
I think re did alot of the game to get it working correctly for the ps2
>>316550329
weird cuz honestly the voice acting is one of the game's best features in the port. the australian accents are hilarious

>>316550876
yeah and viggo sounds like bad tim curry
end of an era
