Stargate SG-1 Cancelled? [Jan 21, 2006, 2:51 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments

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.
So, how is the new Galactica a half-arsed remake? With great acting from a very well-put-together cast, to a constant developing storyline, to some of the best visual effects on TV...and you're going to compare that with a ridiculously annoying robot dog? If you've come in halfway through the series, you've missed a lot simply because of the format of the show; otherwise, I'd love to hear a solid reason for your dislike.
Red Dwarf was amusing while it was on (and is still great today), but the scifi aspects were light and really an excuse for absurdity. Not to say that I didn't like the series, but scifi was an explanation, not an exploration as it should be. Dr. Who, while occasionally brilliant, is largely mired in sheer mediocrity and fully encapsulated episodes which have no effect on the whole. The acting has, over the decades, been hammy and over-the-top, and occasional cleverness can't cover for the frequent weak dialogue and shaky plots.
I don't mean to make this a personal attack, merely an observation based on personal experience, but you seem like someone who was raised by, or is, a middle-aged British man who longs for the 'old days' of scifi so much that you're blinding yourself to what's actually available these days. Shockingly enough, over the span of the last 15 years, there have been a few good things to come out of some of the world's most creative writing minds.
