Rebellion Plans to Make Better Games

[Nov 18, 2011, 11:57 am ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

Following the critical failure of Rebellion's recent games such as Shellshock 2, Rogue Warrior, and Aliens vs. Predator, Jason Kingsley says the studio is looking to reverse this trend. "It’s now a deliberate policy to move away from making games that might have been good for business, but not necessarily good for our reputation," the Rebellion CEO said in the latest issue of Edge Magazine. "You’re only as good as the deal you’re offered. If someone says 'Can you make me a game in nine months?' then the answer is, 'Probably. But it won’t be as good as a game where we’ve had creative input and the time to mature the idea'." Thanks MCV.

That project had been bounced around for years before Rebellion got their hands on it, by which point the publisher probably just wanted someone to finish development and get it out the door. I think at least part of the statement is that they shouldn't even pick up games like that: "You’re only as good as the deal you’re offered."
