Can someone ask him why post-crash Activision didn't use the DPC in his/their later 2600 releases?

 

I suspect that the DPC would have been a significant cost increase for a game. I suspect it would have been reserved for premier releases as it was for Pitfall II. Once the crash occurred, I doubt that Activision would want to risk releasing an expensive title.

 

If I remember correctly, David Crane was working on an even better DPC just prior to the crash.

Why not ask him?

These look great. I hope Gold Rush gets released before my son grows out of his mid-toddlerhood train obsession. (Discussed in this thread... http://atariage.com/forums/topic/281573-train-game-suggestions)

 

It's perfect for him/us. Highly looking forward to the release.

Things seem to have gone quiet. Hope the Kickstarter comes soon.  Would love to see gameplay and packaging art.  Maybe even more info on Bon Voyage; DK's next game.  I'm just so pumped for these games.
