Stargate SG-1: The Alliance still in development

[Iced_Eagle]

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.

Stupid Jowood, They need to crawl in a hole and die.

Stupid Jowood, They need to crawl in a hole and die.

Yeah, even more so after they released that shitty game "Soldner".

 

[Lucid]

Yeah, even more so after they released that shitty game "Soldner".

Man, Soldner had so much ****ing promise...
Then they just shove it out the door totally unfinished and bugged through the ass...
After Soldner I lost all respect for Jowood.

 

[duffers20]

I played a demo of that game Soldner, shockingly bad!

 

[clarky003]

maybe they can redeem their reputation with this , it has the potential for goodness.

why was I not told about this, Mcgyver.. I mean.. Richard Dean Anderson is my hero

"All hail your leader, the mighty Oneil!"

omg i love this guy, he makes babes look like arm rests.

JoWood, the company that released Soldner, dropped it because they thought it was crap. Doesn't bode well.

 

[Iced_Eagle]

Heh watch what will happen.

If JoWood thought Soldner was good and it was actually utter sh*t... Now they think Stargate SG1 is sh*t but watch it will be amazing

lol the irony if that happens...

 

[tvharti]

Yeah, even more so after they released that shitty game "Soldner".

so just don't buy it and you don't have any problems.

No one will deny that Soldner is a mediocre game, but that is no reason to say that JoWooD should die. Every company releases good and bad games, do you wish those companies to just stop it and make people lose their jobs?

don't think so ...
