Im sure you get this question a lot, but is Timesplitters a franchise still very beloved at Crytek? A lot of people hope youll eventually return to it. Can you speak to that at all?
There is actually a petition running online trying to bring the fan base together. But unfortunately the petition doesnt look that convincing unfortunately. If the petition picks up it will be an even better argument for us. At a personal level, Im a big fan of Timesplitters 2. For me, I would love to see the game out there, as a newborn HD version or what not. I definitely would love to see it. But the case of turning this into a business decision is still difficult, despite the fact that there was a Twitter request feed to test the waters. And now the petition, it just seems to be as we expected, as it was when it was Free Radical.
Theres a very hardcore market that is very verbal about it. I would love to see this, and if the fan base approves a further petition. Theyre trying to call 300,000 voices, I think its at two or three thousand right now. If they could get the petition together I would be very happy to put in front of decision makers in the company, the key stakeholders, and say Look here. This is how it is, lets make it now.
