Human Head Off Prey 2?

[Apr 19, 2012, 8:28 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

Human Head has not worked on Prey 2 since November, reports Shacknews citing a "source who asked not to be identified." According to their story, the developer on the first-person shooter sequel stopped working on the game as a negotiating ploy to get a better deal with ZeniMax, and that today's announcement that Prey 2 is delayed suggests a new developer may be announced for the project as a result. That would also explain why Human Head recently raised the possibility of developing Rune 2, and the Shack story indicates Human Head's negotiations to work on a high profile project are going well. They also have the following noncommittal response from ZeniMax to questions about all this: "we aren't commenting on the game's development beyond what was said in the statement that was released this morning."

This website seems obsessed with the idea of "good companies" and "bad companies" when it's all PR bullshit. They all want your money, they will all do whatever it takes to get the most of it they can.

That's not entirely true.
Valve has proven time and again that they don't want all our money, so to speak. They're happy with their license to print it.
Activision wants all our money. EA wants all our money (and our souls if they're up for grabs).
Positech Games isn't after all my money. Taleworlds isn't after all my money.

There are good companies and those companies are out to make good games.

Guys like Harebrained Schemes... the jury is out as far as I'm concerned.
They collected half a mill on good will, another half on excitement, and now are raising another half mill somewhat dubiously (half a mill for an exclusive dlc!? up your ass you fucking jerks, make the fucking game).
