Allan Posted May 7, 2000 Share Posted May 7, 2000 I just got my June 2000 issue of CGW and saw an interesting article in the "read.me" section on p.54: "Aeon Electronic Entertainment sailed into a minefield. They were working on Silent Hunter II for Minscape/SSI, when Mindscape took the contract back from them. Aeon was in the middle of negotiations with Mindscape over a new contract and essentially worked for free for several months, under the expectation that they'd get a new deal. Instead, Mindscape ended the relationship and seized the working code, which included those free months of work...." Well, I was looking forward to SH2 but I guess I can cross it off my list now. This sort of thing really make me appreciate BTS'independent approach. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juju Posted May 7, 2000 Share Posted May 7, 2000 Aww, ****. And I had that one on my wishlist for so long. Fortunately I have no doubt we'll play CM1 soon, and 2, 3 and 4, eventually! Unless the sky falls down before that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know our hobby is a niche market but if you put out quality titles, they will sell. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
