It is actually quite surprising because they just came off of a big success with there wrestling game, "Showdown: Legends of Wrestling". Possibly the best game of its type ever produced. I usually hate wrestling games but this one is actually good. You don't need a degree in quantum physics to master the controls.

They produce alot more sports games than any other company I know. Not one of favorite gaming genres and I have only had one game that I can think of by this company "Magic the Gathering: Battlemage" A Real time magic the Gathering game. The game sucked because it would crash whenever a counterspell was cast so it made it difficult to make it through the campaign. Despite its major flaws the game did have some nice qualities to it, a decent storyline, music, and end movie. Despite being a crap game I did have some fun with the game and obtained it from the bargin bin. Later I traded it with a game store that sells used games, I think they may have mistaken it for another MTG game and gave me a couple bucks towards my purchase of NWN:Gold. Anyway that is my fondest memory of a game by this company.

I guess it was more a combo of bad business decisions by the suits that killed this company.
