You also need 20M to develop a game...
and is the franchise including TDU1 and 2 and TDFRL etc???
Would have been a perfect project. Another time, another place.
There are always people trying to save the sinking ship. Maybe this initiative can do something useful with the Atari legacy.

I see they have raised $197 of a total of $200,000 with 11 days left, still plenty of time thenMadManCK wrote:There are always people trying to save the sinking ship. Maybe this initiative can do something useful with the Atari legacy.

as Bezrider has pointed out the $197 is laughable and i really can't see anyone putting any more cash into the proceeding short of some diehard fan winning the lottery and even then i'm not sure they would want to rescue atari.
should be renamed to 'save infogrames'Bezrider wrote:I see they have raised $197 of a total of $200,000 with 11 days left, still plenty of time thenMadManCK wrote:There are always people trying to save the sinking ship. Maybe this initiative can do something useful with the Atari legacy.

Or save Prizm.
Turning a professional studio into a University subsidiary is probably a less bright idea than they think. Although the constant new input with fresh ideas from students could lead to some cool games for sure.
It would ruin the TDU legacy.
TDU needs a dedicated team who understands what the community wants and can deliver, meeting the high expectations of the Hardcore TDU players and serve the casual cruisers as well.

Auction is this week.Sad_little_loser wrote:Any news? Hope some sucker buys it!!!
1.5M for the Test Drive franchise is a lot of money.
Could have been a nice project.
There is a big chance some elements will be sold internally and used for the restart of Atari.
If TDU will be part of that remains the question.
If not i seriously hope someone with a lot of money will get behind it and help to create a really cool game.
