Warner Bros. is also canceling the Wonder Woman game.

This is maybe the biggest bloodbath we’ve seen in this industry? What a damn shame.

    29 years later, after working with Monolith on one of the worst projects in history… I can finally piss on their grave. Fuck you Matt, fuck Monolith. Yeah this is fucking personal.

        They were contracted to design the (edit: low-level coin op hardware, etc) API for our new Internet-enabled touchscreen gaming network kiosks (world first at the time) and they were fucking useless. And then had the gall to present the piece of shit at the CGDG 1997, as a half-finished completely non-functional, but presented it like it was their own product and not a massive NDA violation. Presented like their own product which could be generically extended to other platforms. Fuck you Matt. Fuck you Monolith you fucking cunts.

            You pay someone to do X with a contract; they

            • take your money
            • not do X
            • instead show the idea of X, which is yours, as THEIR product, which doesn’t even work
              • voliating non-disclosure agreements in your contract
              • doing untold damage to your business plans

            Yeah, I don’t know about anything else, but fuck Matt with a cactus.
