    Seemingly they gone bust so guess Vampire not getting anymore patches.

    No more mutants canned also if true.
    Lots of rumours but no official word.

    Nooooo! :mad:
    I think Activision did a good job marketing Bloodlines and all. For some reason about 3 weeks after release Game had slashed the price (half price), relegating it to a budget title!?

    I would imagine the widespread reports of critical bugs, including a common one that wouldnt let you start a game, and a bad bit of level design that ensured you couldnt complete the game without going into the console and manually triggering a level switch - all in less than 10 seconds or so - played its part in the slashing of Vampire:Bloodlines to budget price.

    Pity, because once it was finally patched it was quite good.

    Im not entirely unhappy to see Troika go if the technical quality of their work is so poor.

    Think penny arcade put it best
    Troika (for those of you with a concussion) is the little company that couldn't, producing games of marvelous, unprecedented promise coupled with epic lapses in technical execution.

    so true
