Deeper into the Death of Interplay...

Just found these news posts on No Mutants Allowed (http://www.nma-fallout.com/) posted today.

Employees in the dark by Odin - at 1:21

More info on the ongoing "Hervie draining IPLY for money" story, as we reported earlier the IPLY employees were all told to go home and file for unemployment. They were told that more info would come later on, right now I've talked to several employees and they all told me that they had no clue as to what was going on.

So basically Hervie has "laid off" all of the IPLY employees, but according to Herve IPLY is still in business (earlier statement after we posted about the employees encouraged to file for unemployment). Still the facts remain.

We've also learned that lawyers are scouring the countryside for little Hervie, for various reasons/money that IPLY owes someone.

What's also funny is the fact that the SEC is not taking actions towards the Caen brothers for being delinquent in their SEC filings, but evidently they're the least of his problems right now.

My guess is that Hervie boy will sell what pieces there are left of IPLY and get the hell out of Dodge, so now's the time to buy that Fallout license boys and girls.. Dish up!


And then posted a little later today...

Titus site gone? by Kharn - at 14:47

 In reply to Odin's earlier newsbit about Interplay employees being in the dark, Interplay techie Corith replied this on our forums:

In the dark is an understatment.

The Titus site is also gone... poof. I tried the phones, at the corp office. Disconnected. It was there as late as this morning now poof gone.
After checking, I also found the Titus site indeed missing, but on the other hand, the Robocop site, for instance, is still there. Might all just be temporary, we will keep you posted.

No, they're loaded with Boagnerges with Disruptors and dumbfires piloted by rookies.

"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside
