    it has been done - in fact, we do have a lead we will follow up when i am back from vacation. i did respond to the email from sony but i have yet to hear anything back, what i am afraid is that sony will lock this IP to their own platforms (PSP and PS3) which means we may never see a version for iOS or web os!

    lets hope not! i am more than willing to work with SCEE on this.
     
  2. From my point of view they'd be fools not to license an iPhone version. It was a great and classic game to be sure, but it doesn't have the pulling power it once did, so I can't see them wanting to keep it to themselves to use as an exclusive for PSN or PSP/Go. But then they're Sony. They can do whatever the hell they want. Let's hope they see merit in licensing though. It's basically free money for them since they didn't have to do a damn thing to get it developed.

    There was a fan-made kings quest game meant to be coming out soon too, but the IP holders put a stop to it.

    That's back on track, in fact the C&D there was a mistake because the devs had been given a license.

    Why can't we be friends? Why cant we be friends? All the companies that like to keep their games to their platforms would make more money if they had it for every platform why wont they realize this and make every gamers dream come true. WHYYYY????

    ok, here comes the stupid question:
    since the application was in already in review, has Apple been notified about this or will it be put down right after the approval? In the second case, there might be a slight chance of grabbing it on the fly... (but I suspect it's the first case).
     
  9. SCEE contacted Aaron, not Apple, since it hadn't hit the App Store yet, and as a result Aaron pulled the app himself, so it won't even go through the review process.
