Aliens: Colonial Marines Developer Suffers A Round Of Layoffs
Aliens: Colonial MarinesRaise your hand if you're surprised at this news. ...nobody? Really? Gee, I can't imagine why.
As reported at Polygon, TimeGate Studios, the developer that created much of the single-player campaign of the critically blasted Aliens: Colonial Marines, has announced a round of layoffs.
Company president Adel Chaveleh said that although it's "never easy," they're doing everything they can to assist those affected by these layoffs. Furthermore, he says TimeGate "is preparing for the transition to next-generation consoles and new business models." As such, all current projects will continue to move forward and if that's the case, we'll have to hope for a much better showing next generation. TimeGate didn't reveal the exact number of employees who got the ax, but various sources are saying it's about 25. It's always tough to deal with but after Colonial Marines, we all saw this coming.
We say the recent Aliens entry is easily one of the worst games of the entire generation. A big steaming pile of...well, just the read the review, if you must. It's amusing, at least.
