The last employees of what was left of Sierra are gone... :(
... been playing Quest for Glory III and King's Quest VII in the last couple of weeks (with KQV and QFGIV and V waiting...) so I really know what is gone. But as I said in some thread more recently most of the gaming companies I remember as great PC developers from the mid '90s are gone or unrecognizable now... between Sierra, Lucasarts and Interplay I had a lot of my favorite games, not to mention missed developers like all of the Sierra sub-divisions (Impressions, Dynamix, and Papyrus especially), Bullfrog, Westwood, and Origin, Looking Glass, Sir-Tech, Microprose, 3D0 (New World Computing), Accolade (made some good sports games)... so sad...
... just the mention of 'Microprose' makes me want to play Civilization II... maybe I will...
Just read this post while going through some old threads and the only thing that came to mind was this: All my heros are dead.
