Mad Doc Swallowed

April 7th, 2008 by Troy Goodfellow · 1 Comment · Industry

Rockstar Games has just acquired Massachussetts developer Mad Doc Software for an undisclosed amount of money. Given how poorly most of the gaming world responded to Mad Doc’s most recent efforts, Empire Earth III and Star Trek: Legacy, the nasty side of me snidely wonders if this is a poison pill to deter EA’s buyout.

    They also did the port of Bully for Xbox 360, which has apparently been plagued by frame rate issues and crash bugs. (It has since been patched, which addressed some of its issues but apparently not all of them. Too bad, as I was going to pick it up.)
