Where are they now.

[evilmess]

As I read thru the "Top 5 things in gaming history that pissed you off" I thought it would be cool if DP could do a VH1 style "Where are they now" column of past game companies and the individuals that set the standards and helped create the classics that many of us hold in high regard.

A little history
Some comments and remeberence from gamers and other industry types.
An interview, if possible.
A look at what they're doing now.

Just an idea. ;)

For companies that are still around and people that are still in the industry that wouldnt be too hard of a thing to do.

For companies that are no longer around, what can you really say about where they are now except Nowhere. Also, it may be hard to find people that worked for extinct companies to interview.

Well, a lot of people leave big companies and form smaller ones, and sometimes big companies disolve, and those employees go start another firm.

GRev (Border Down) are former Taito employees. Judging from Border Down, I'd say they're damn good.

As for a "where are they now?" Technos Japan has apparently vanished from the face of the Earth w/o a trace.
