How the hell did I forget about Looking Glass Studios and Dynamix?

Tribes 2 is home to some of the best FPSing one can find, and virtually every game Looking Glass made was unbelievable.

Looking Glass and Dynamix you console playing shitheads.

In no particualr order:

SNK
Toaplan
Raizing (before the merge with 8ing)
Data East
Irem (from the Arcade scene)

Square. Ever since the name became Squaresoft, the games have been worthy of flushing.

Also, how do we go about getting whoever made Myst on this defunct list?

[xS]

I think it was Bungie.

Did they even make a game before that merger?

[xS]

Raizing wasnt all that great in the first place (apart from Batrider) , freeware games like the one play better than some of their games.=/

- Data East
- Team Andromeda
- Renovation
- SNK

Is Origin dead?

For all intents and purposes. EA bought them out and deliberately ran them into the ground by putting it under new management every 2 months, and demanding they put out a new Ultima Online every 6 months. They used it as a training ground for new managers, and eventually fired all the key staff.


Also, I'm appearently an idiot. Adelne isn't dead, they just decided not to make a game for 6 years. They're working on some GBA crap (Moto Racer for GBA. Presumably because they were bought out by Delphine). Well I guess it's something. I really really loved LBA and LBA II and Alone in the Dark 1 and 2. Time Commando sucked, but I'll forgive them.
