Stargate SG-1 Cancelled?

Gamecloud reports another twist in the ongoing epic saga of the Stargate SG-1 game (thanks Frans). This project was previously reported as cancelled by JoWooD (story), a report that was contradicted by developer Perception (story). It was then revealed that Namco was eager to step in as publisher of this game (story and story), while a subsequent finding by a bankruptcy court seemed to find fault in the dispute over the game to lie with Perception (story). The new report comes from Crazy Ivan's Stargate Alliance Board, where word is:

It pains me to say this but unfortunately Stargate SG-1 The Alliance has been canceled.

An official statement is forth coming from MGM and/or perception in the coming days.

I would like to take this opportunity to wish all the employees of Perception all the very best for the future. Having seen the game first hand I know you guys did a fantastic job and you have every right to feel proud of what you have done.

I encourage all the Perception employees who are hidden members of this forum to let yourselves be known. You should be proud of the work you have done and I encourage all members of the forum here to congratulate the Perception crew and to wish them all the very best.

In the end it was pretty obvious MGM wanted the project canned for some reason that eludes everyone except them,
It may elude that clueless Perception employee, but it doesn't elude me at all. MGM knew that JoWood would successfully sue the hell out of whoever attempted to publish the game without them.

Developers need publishers to fund the creation of a game.
LOL! Perception tried to force its publisher into bankruptcy so it could terminate its contract even after the publisher had paid for development of the game up to that point, and now it bitches when it no longer has funding. You reap what you sow, fool!
