Mark E Posted January 18, 2004 Report Share Posted January 18, 2004 Title says it all, the house that adventure games built was shut down by Atari on Friday according to internal sources, as reported by GameSpot. Damned shame. I have a soft spot for Legend, as they did text adventures at a time when they were a totally dead genre, and they did them well. Eric the Unready is/was one of the best text adventures ever made and quite the barrel of laughs. Homeworld and Homeworld 2 were also quite enjoyable. Hate to see a company go, even if they were strictly developers doing Unreal 2 right now. It's just the memories I suppose. Just seems to be far too much of this lately.

Graeme Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 Homeworlds are done by Relic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark E Posted January 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 Oops, sorry, I forgot about Relic's titles. I'm not talking about those Homeworld games though. I meant the ones based on Frederic Pohl's novels. Maybe they were called Gateway then... Hmm, I have to look that up. But yeah not the 3D-flying-spacey Homeworlds, the ones that were text adventures :green:. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
