Perhaps, but every company makes horrible decisions. And in comparison tpo what other companies have done in the past I don't think that Clover really did anything that they deserve to go under for.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

You are right. NIS does publish their own games NOW. But that's besides the point. Let's try to keep on topic now, eh?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

This is how a lot of companies are formed. They start out amall, make some really good products and then seperate & expand. It's true that change can be scary, but it is also required to move forwards my friends.

Some examples are;
Epic Games (Used to be owned by Atari)
Kojima Productions (while seperate they still produce exclusively for Konami... for now)
X-seed (used to be part of the SCEA)

I just found this shimmer of good news for all you gamers in Europe.

It looks like Clover isn't ACTUALLY closing until March '07, and according to the article they'll be working on the PAL versions of Okami and God Hand up to that date. Close one, eh?

Unfortunatly it's pretty much set and done my good sir. But give it some time, I'm sure that we'll see Clover calibur titles coming to lite in the next year or so.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Most of the creative directors and masterminds who actually created Clover's games did get absorbed into Capcom, because they needed them to work on the larger next-gen titles. Clover's lead designer left with a few programmers and directors, but no one who was all that important and can't be replaced with someone else in the huge company of Capcom.

Whether Clover or Capcom owns the rights to Okami, VJ, God Hand, etc. I don't think that you're going to see any sequels to any of Clover's work any time soon if ever. SEEDS is too small to make such a thing, and Capcom is going the route of big name sequels and new IPs, none of Clover's games fall into either category due to poor market figures.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
