God darn it. I am both a Romero fan and a player of the "second generation" of  Guantlet. Never meet to many people who liked the game, but only asked peoplel from real life. But I saw beauty in it. So, when i recently learned romero was on team for the new guantlet, it seemed like perfection. Also, had the slightest hope of providing a dedicated player's input into the game to an accessible team member. But it was not meant to be, such a good thing  was not meant to last. Next i'l here HoMM V is canned again.

teh sux0rs for moi, but cheers to the future! looking forward to purchasing your next entertainment product.

No, midway dosnt have anything bad... Midway makes great games... Im sure Johns Departure dosnt change a thing... Johns next project will kick ass!!! I wouldnt worry too much about what you read, most of it will be bullshit...

Theres some stuff we dont really need to know... so no worry, just relax... and wait for the next game :) ... Ohhh Rhaluka has been playing with doom builder.. and some of her stuff looks great.. check out this screenshot..



this looks like a great level... ohhh i want to play doom :)

Well I think leaving Midway is a good thing.  I don't think a company like Midway would ever be able to fully utilize or appreciate John Romero's talents.  I said it a couple of months back, Midway's idea of Gauntlet is going to suck.  Glad Romero got off that sinking ship...

why did you leave midway!  it was a good gauntlet constructor but i do not think so much of the resources.  best of luck in your priorities, a well deserved break could be just the straw that breaks the horses back

It wasn't "Midway's idea of Gauntlet" - i went to Midway to reinvent the game with a fresh, new design and position it for a stronger future brand.
