Deathblow! Silicon Knights ordered to destroy all software with unreal code.

![]() Game over man! Game over =( I suggest everyone get Too Human while you have the chance! It's going to be a piece of video game history. |

It would be better if they had to turn the property over to Epic.

Holy shit, destroying the code?
I don't really like the sound of this. Too Human wasn't a great game by any stretch but it gave me some weird form of enjoyment. So, was it true that Too Human's game code was essentially all re-written unreal stuff? Seems awfully overkill to make them delete the game code otherwise. |

Yeah. They'd probably sit on them (well, I guess if Activision cared they could call up for the X-men game), but at least it exists and could be exhumed at a later date.
You'll probably be finding copies in GameStop when they're doing buy two get two deals on 360 software 8 years from now. |

The publisher, I'd imagine, seeing as it's the party responsible for pressing the discs and shipping them to stores. Acti could attempt to pass that cost on to SK, but the company has been surviving on contract to contract, so this would surely be a fruitless endeavour.

Yeah, wouldn't be publishers the ones required to do this? They are the ones that sell those copies to retailers in the first place.

I have assigned to you one day for each year its punishment will last.

I'd better find a copy of Too Human while I can. I just have to have it.
But really, this is a shitty situation - having to destroy all your work like this. Not that they didn't deserve, but still. |

Too bad about SK, they made a couple good games. Nothing at all recent, but still. This is pretty much it for them then, isn't it? |
