Free Radical

Good to see the company looking for a new publisher after the recent Eidos problems. Nintendo are a big market for Free Radical games and for them not to be able to get their products on ths system was obviously not something they wanted to face. If Activision do step in and work with them I can only see it improving the company more and more. Here's hoping

Yes indeed - and if it does all work out, it may well set an example for other developers feeling let-down or restricting by publishers.
When it comes to quality game standards, Nintendo are one of the most highly respected and names in the business, and appearing on a Nintendo console can prove a creative high-point to many self-respecting developers. Financial concerns from publishers may have pulled developers back, but perhaps Free Radical's move will open a few doors...

...well, in a perfect world, anyway.

It is good news, and other companies would do well to follow siut perhaps, as long as they stick with Ninty
