Defunct Game Developers / Studios / Publishers ?

Bullfrog published a couple of my all time favourites, Populous & Dungeon Keeper.

Real shame that Dungeon Keeper 3 was shelved, the reason for its cancellation stated on Wikipedia was Harry ruddy Potter. Criminal!

"The innovative nature of the Dungeon Keeper series proved to be incompatible with EA's business model after the company acquired the rights" - Pah.

Rare still exist, dont they make Kinect Sports? I know not in line with previous epic games, but they are still about. As are Team 17

Yes, they put the remaining bullfrog team to work on Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings games, I wonder how many of the now defunt bullfrog team are still at EA? What a waste of such a talented team of developers.

some of the old bullfrog employees tried to startup their own company, mucky foot productions. Didn't last long, they closed after only releasing a few games.

Bullfrog produced some fine games back in their time, Syndicate, Populous and Magic Carpet were all nothing short of genius.

Team 17 are still around, released Alien Breed impact etc recently for consoles and PC via Steam.

Who remembers delphine Software? Another world... Classic game.
