Default Omikron on PS2

I only just realised about this only recently.

It got canned, do you know the reasons and would you have personally wanted Omikron on the PS2?

Cheers, Chris Wray.

Omikron got canned on PS1, not PS2.

It was the end of the PS1 cycle, and Eidos thought at the time that the console market would collapse in the next six months (I think that PS1 games were still sold two years after that...).

They urged us to move to the Dreamcast which was definitely the future.

Publishers, sometimes they are difficult to follow...

Not having released Omikron on PS1 is my biggest regret. The version looked great and it could have been a great success on console.

Now that was a dumb decision by Eidos. A PS2 port may have been even better, but by then I guess Omikron would be old news.
