| That is sad news. Okami is a beautiful game, and Godhand is one of the few titles on the horizon that I've really been watching/looking forward to. | |

| This is really too bad. I don't think anyone can deny Viewtiful Joe, and I've heard great things about Okami. But, I guess if it's for Capcom's greater good... | |

Quote (laszlow @ 12th October 2006 14:07) The official dissolution of the development studio isn't official until March of next year, giving Clover time to still release any current unannounced projects that are under wraps.  Do you know if Clover Studios have anything in the pipeline to be released before March? | |

Do you know if Clover Studios have anything in the pipeline to be released before March? No, we don't, but there is a chance. Of course, there's an equal chance that any current Clover Studios projects will just get passed on to a Capcom interior production studio once it happens. | |

| Wops then, I guess if i'm in a rush next time i'll save the topic till later then. I did try the Viewtiful Joe series, wasn't a big fan but the game was OK, but who knows, if this woulnd't of happened they could of made a good game/series, but like you said Laz, there will be a "tradition" of the games. | |

Quote (Dragon King @ 12th October 2006 20:34) I remember them making a "Arcade type-fighting game" that I really enjoy. (Street Fighter?) This is sad, Next thing we know, Squenix is next. Ummm... Keep in mind that Capcom is shutting down Clover Studios, which is just a small Capcom subsidiary. There is no danger of Capcom going under, and probably an equally low chance of Square-Enix going under. Did you even read the first post? | |

| What's a bit interesting here is that this month's OPM has an interview with Clover Studio, and in this interview the Clover guys readily acknowledge that with all their success so far, the call from Capcom to shut down could happen at any time. Given that the interview probably took place in July or August, these guys really knew what their industry is about. | |
