    They had a AAA gaming studio? I must have been living under a rock.

    The first time I heard about it was when it opened. The second time I’m hearing about it, is when is closed.

    I hope Halo can use this opportunity to invite Joe Staten back on board. Their Creative Director opening on LinkedIn was closed recently, but who they actually hired we don’t know.

    Well, they produced Oxenfree 2 which was a welcome sequel that I enjoyed. But other than that, I didn’t really hear about anything else from them.

      Was it a AAA game? How can it be this unknown when it was AAA?

      Was that this studio, or their other studio that’s been running since 2017? This one, “Team Blue,” was supposed to be working on some unannounced AAA game.

    It wasn’t a terrible idea, but I’m not surprised that it failed

    It should have been a AAAAA studio. That is where they fucked up.

    Or, they fucked up thinking that people wanting to watch movies wanted to play games…

      Wasn’t it all mobile games? I’m pretty sure that was the exact market they were looking for. People with short attention spans that can’t put down the phone, even while consuming other media.

        Based on the article: the AAA thing was supposed to be something new/different, but they dlosed it before releasing anything. I also haven’t tried the mobile games, but they should be still available, that is done by a different team

        I just ignored all the ads and any news, so you are likely correct. I did think that most of the games were mobile, but I must have been mistaken in thinking it was playable on Netflix clients on your TV or something.

        I used to play Pac-Man on my old FireTV with the controller while I was killing time in the mornings before work, so I thought it was similar in that regard.

          Damn, I didn’t know that was a thing either, lol. I’d play retro games on the TV remote.
