[end rant] #6 A surprisingly superficial and poorly written article. The "three points" bulletpoints at top are also an AI summary, and they didn't even bother to proofread the output. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should rebrand the companh as Tay-Lor, and give the console the name you suggest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+GoldLeader Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 I'm glad the thread's not gone! I like examining the topic; The players, the situation, and how it played out... IDK, maybe it's a certain type of weird therapy for me or something...Aside from (possibly?) getting a canned answer, like "Market Research" in an Amico thread from him once I want to say...I've never met TT nor had any interaction with him in real life,....But I know the type. (I've known a few)...And I've generally made it a point to put distance between me and that type of person in real life. Life's too short.

MrBeefy Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 Since they couldn't secure the AmicoGames website, it looks like they will rebrand as Amico Entertainment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarioMan88 Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 (edited) Why this charade keeps going has to rank up there with how the pyramids were built!

I think the legal ramifications speculation is the safest bet of why they keep on bothering with their low-effort releases. It's probably use the remaining money until there's no more - and no more personal benefit - then declare bankruptcy and have the necessary legal protections in place. They sold the last significant assets, so it's truly just a matter of time at this point. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This requires some paperwork and therefore more time. Similarly for changes to trademark registrations, there are numerous ways to eliminate/change ownership. When I see actual documents on either, I'll let you know. #6 Edited May 31 by number6 bah. typo 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paying off Sudesh is a big step as I heard he was the reason they hadn't filed for bankruptcy a while back. 22 minutes ago, Razzie.P said: Nah, it'll be out this Christmas, I hear.
