64 bit support is not the same as a next gen upgrade. 64 bit has been used for like 12-15 years now?

They sold the entire company. I did like when they ran Everquest as well. But numbers were declining unfortunately

4 or 5 players in a game is not players frantically dusting it off

Jin_Sakai210d ago

Enough to write an article though. N4g new owners are insulting us for click revenue

Vits210d ago

@mandf

Nothing to do with new owners. N4G has always been the trashcan for game news and discussion.

I love video games so much that I never have the time to replay the old one that I have finished, my backlog has only gotten bigger and bigger. I don't get how some people can play one game for years (except for mmorpg)

Profchaos210d ago

Some people do I know someone who only ever plays dune 2000 which is rarely but still

RedDevils209d ago

Those Fifa or COD players do that every years.

Inverno210d ago

Wonder why they've never ported this game over to last Gen and now current Gen. This game would be pretty popular right now, I think.
