Another Stargate Worlds Lawsuit

[May 13, 2012, 11:47 am ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

An extensive article on AZCentral discusses the most recent court battle over Stargate Worlds following the presumed cancelation of the Stargate MMORPG. They outline a third investor lawsuit, filed in Maricopa County Superior Court in February, seeking approximately $4 million from former Cheyenne Mountain chairman and CEO Gary Whitingand other former Cheyenne Mountain executives, board members and stock promoters. Here's a bit that outlines the allegations of misconduct this involves:

Cheyenne Mountain's court-appointed receiver, Keith Bierman of Phoenix-based MCA Financial Group, said company documents show millions of dollars collected from investors were not spent on development of Stargate Worlds and may yet remain in the hands of Whiting and other former company executives.

Bierman, a bankruptcy consultant appointed by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court to try to save the failed Stargate Worlds project, is in the process of liquidating the company's remaining assets. He is seeking the court's permission to investigate the whereabouts of the missing funds in hopes of returning that money to investors.

"There were a significant number of investments that did not appear to come to the company," he said.

Whiting could not be reached for comment on this story. Court documents show he is not currently represented by an attorney.

I was in the beta of stargate worlds, altough I absolutly love the Stargate SG1, Atlantis and even Universe, this game was going to hit a brick wall if it was ever going to be released by Cheyenne Mountain, the combat was dull as hell, kind of like the one in StarTrek online when it first released. It's sad it had to be cancelled, but maybe its for the better, if someone could pick up the rights to this game and make it better, then I will definetly buy it... Stargate MMO, would be freaking awesome.
