what a huge fucking surprise that the game would suck! I actually think it's damn good of jowood to stop the game instead of just spitting out a POS game trying to make money on the sg1 licens!

Well to be honest JoWood dont exactly release 'quality' titles to begin with, so for them to cancel this it must have been a pile of crap.

Meh no loss. . .

The slightly disturbing thing about this is the fact that JoWood gets to keep all the source code and the already finished stuff _AND_ they get their money back from the developer. Meaning first of all that the people at Perception worked for nothing the last oh i don't know, 2-3 years maybe? Second now that JoWood has all the stuff already setup, what's keeping them from giving it to another studio to finish it for some change?

btw there's a guy called Primetime posting in the comments section at bluesnews, stating he's from JoWood and the whole thing with Perception was totally okay for both sides and all that. Would love to hear the other side on that one. Linkage:

Just because you occasionally "suck ass", doesn't mean that description go around everywhere.

Ok, ok! You like the game, project your sexuality elsewhere.


Yes, yes I'm back.

Fisk, It's not my fault you take those remarks seriously. There are many many men just like you who have no sex at all or are not sexually satisfied in some way and attack innocent guys like me.

Apparently Jowood doesnt own the license to the SG-1 franchise, Perception does. This article here says the game is still going to be developed.

Good news for the Stargate game:

Sydney, Australia, 12th of August, 2005; Perception Pty Ltd would like to rectify certain statements that have been made to the press by JoWooD Productions. To be clear, Perception is the official licensee of MGM on Stargate SG-1: The Alliance. Any suggestion that JoWooD has rights to Stargate SG-1: The Alliance upon termination of the contract is incorrect and not based on commercial or legal fact.

Development on the game will continue uninterrupted at Perception’s Sydney studio. Perception is committed to giving fans the best gaming experience possible.

Ben Lenzo, CEO of Perception said, “We view it as unfortunate that JoWooD would elect to make such misleading and libelous comments to the media and the marketplace. Over the last 9 months, JoWooD has openly acknowledged being in breach of contract in a number of areas including many legal and confidentiality breaches as well as several financial defaults for work performed by Perception and accepted by JoWooD.”

Perception has tried to work with JoWooD to resolve these issues for months but to no avail. This resulted in several breach notices being served on JoWooD, giving them ample time to remedy. As these newest issues had not been resolved by the August 5th 2005, Perception gave notice that all outstanding issues would need to be resolved by Monday August 8th 2005, or Perception would terminate its contract with JoWooD.

“It’s disappointing to hear of this so called termination via the press on the basis of a “get in first” tactic. This further suggests that JoWooD do not understand the terms of the contract. We are not surprised by their behavior or lack of appreciation for the goodwill Perception has afforded JoWooD on many occasions,” said Lenzo

Perception has begun personal prosecution proceedings against both the CEO, Albert Seidl and the Chairman of the Supervisory Board of JoWooD, Andreas Rudas, for the libelous comments made in their press release and will use all legal remedies available to it for the substantial monies owed to it by JoWooD.

“Perception will not allow its name to be tarnished in such a manner and view such matters extremely seriously and will always protect the reputation of our staff, our products, licensing partners and the company.”

Perception will not discuss any further the outstanding issues with JoWooD in public as legal action is underway. We look forward to the release of Stargate SG-1: The Alliance.
