| Heard about this on sportscenter yesterday. Pretty sad. But at the same time, what fool puts nearly all of their fortune into a company that could easily turn over such as one in the video game industry. I feel bad for all of those employees that moved to RI. |

| Hate it for Curt but tend to agree. KoA was actually an extremely good RPG, I thought. | |

| It's what happens when you try to be a major game developer and do it on your own, instead of whoring out to a major publisher. Sucks for Curt, I heard Amular was pretty good, just not my cup of tea. | |
