About Judy

As WP's managing editor, I edit review and preview articles, attempt to keep up with the frantic pace of Rainier's news posts, and keep our reviewers on deadline, which is akin to herding cats. When I have a moment to myself and don't have my nose in a book, I like to play action/RPG, adventure and platforming games.

Titus Interactive & Interplay Are No More...

by Judy on Jan. 5, 2005 @ 1:49 p.m. PST

Reuters France is reporting that the commercial court of Meaux announced on Monday that French publisher Titus and its subsidiary companies, Sofra Jeux (publisher) and Avalon France (previously known as Virgin Interactive) are bankrupt. Titus also held 62.25% of the Interplay shares, which is now also liquidated (thanks DuckforCover). Interplay recently signed a publishing deal with Majorem for its MMORTS Ballerium, so it is uncertain what will happen to the title now. Majorem had this to say : "We're still waiting for a confirmation of this item as posted by you, however in the meantime I can reassure that even in the case that Interplay liquidates as well, Ballerium is as safe as it was (or, as unsafe as it was, depending your point of view)."
