Default news about Microids

Has anyone noticed this?

Interesting. I hope the company will start producing games again. Don't tell me they will end up being a publisher.

That's all they can be with no development studio of their own, so I wouldn't look for them to be announcing their own titles any time soon. Could happen, but that's a much bigger financial commitment.

Still, another reputable publisher for the North American market is pretty huge news in itself. I believe they'll be publishing two other games this year, as well, though I'm not sure that's been officially announced.

Shame to see Microids (Canada) go. They were the one company that I really enjoyed, playing their games. I've played DF: TLJ, Myst, Indigo Prophecy... But Microids games just stood out the pack.

Microids's website is on again. Does anyone know that? It looks really nice. I didn't know that Microids is the publisher of Sinking Island.

Yes! This is really good news. If some of the published games sells well they might be able to afford a development studio. Think about a sequel to Still Life!

That would be great, but I think they will only license titles from European developers, and that is good too, because American distributors can reach global audience.
