2K Games har genom åren skämt bort oss med otaliga moderna klassiker, men de senaste åren har vi även fått två storsatsningar som inte riktigt levererat. Och det medgav bossen för Take-Two, Strauss Zelnick, under en teknikkonferens nyligen där han förklarade varför spelen inte levererade, utan snarast tog avstånd från den och sade att de inte representerade utgivaren:
"I think 2K is doing great. I think when you put out a lot of titles, not everything is gonna work as well as one would like, and Battleborn is an example of that. Evolve is a little bit different. That was bought out of a THQ bankrupcy, and it was developed by an external studio with oversight from 2K, so it's a totally different situation. We knew it was a very unusual title, and it was a bet on an unusual title. It didn't surprise us that consumers had mixed feelings about it.
Battleborn was a disappointment. We've said so publicly, but I don't think that's systemic, because 2K is a company that brings you Civilization, with incredibly high score in the nineties, the company that brings you basketball which scores in the nineties, Xcom 2 and the like where we're known for having very high scores."
Vad tycker du om detta uttalande, har Zelnick rätt?
