I'll be curious to see where he ends up now. -------------------- Feel like drawing good 'ol Toodles the Horse? Well, you might want a ref! And, because he's so photogenic, here's another one!

THQ only had them for a year and a bit, during which time they released nothing. Odd that they'd hire a few big names and do nothing major with them, but meh. The team have yet to release anything "bad" so it would be a bit strange if nobody shows any interest. Annoying that BHG got the axe and not one of the dev teams that live off crappy SpongeBob Squarepants titles. -------------------- [ I am Black Squirrel, read about me \| Blog Squirrel \| The Obscure Ripping Project ] [ SHPDMBGWL4 \| Super MFGG War \| Player Adventure ]

Money makes the world go round.

EDIT: That is a surprisingly cynical remark coming from me...
