The guys over at HomeLan Fed got this statement from Nancy Buskin as to the reason Atari closed Legend recently:
Yes, I can confirm that Atari has closed Legend Entertainment. This was purely a business decision as Legend had recently completed its only current project and had no new projects in the pipeline.How very politically correct of them... If you wish to read the full thing, you may check it out here. |

Farewell Legend. We loved you  |

What ever she says I'm sure comes from the heart 
Atari: Any one want a pink-slip since no ones come in to get a bagle today?
Nancy Buskin: OOooooooo, Me!

The Legend guys certainly talked about how they were working on other, unnamed, games.
It's not that Legend didn't have other games in progress, just Atari was going to fund them. |
