They're the ones that made Yaris? Glad to hear they're on the way out.

Yeah, it's surprising that people left Blizzard to do Yaris.

Yaris RROD'ed my 360. Could have been coincidence but I think it was a direct result of playing it.

Maybe now they'll learn that you have to make a product to survive in business.

What in the hell was Toyota thinking when they decided to have developed a game like Yaris? That little kids were going to beg their parents to buy them a Yaris?, that gamers from 14 to 18 could eventually actually afford a yaris? That anyone in the world would like the Yairs. First of all Yaris have an awful design also they don’t shoot lazers, second have it announce it on the xlive was just plain bad and having a game about it was just a terrible idea then again a free bad game is better than having Yaris ads every-f*cking-where.

Yaris was confusing as hell and the shooting was awful (an error people in the U.S will never forgive) so yeah it was a bad game but is better than having a commercial storm in the damn dashboard.

To be honest you people exaggerate a lot. It was bad game but it wasn’t bad enough to save the president and less to be even remembered.

You are all over the place there - you say it was so bad, and then say everyone’s exaggerating how bad it is.

"To be honest you people exaggerate a lot. It was bad game but it wasn’t bad enough to save the president and less to be even remembered."

What does that even mean?

As far as the marketing side, it seems that there are a lot of people over 16 who own 360's and this is a way to get them to recognize the name of the car. It works for that much.

That my friend means that is time to get a new keyboard because I'm always typing in a hurry and this keyboard doesn't helps.

Sorry for all the typos, all my posts are usually plagued with those. I'll pick a new keyboard tomorrow with a new xlive gold account.

Now what I meant is that the game is bad but is not Big Rigs” OMG WTF” Bad just bad like a bad design, pure mediocrity, nothing especial that justifies the hate it receives. Like when you watch a movie, there is a difference between a dull boring movie and an Uwe Boll movie.

I think Joystiq needs to step back and ask themselves: "Do we really miss any of these developers" I mean in all honestly of all these studios that have gone under they produced maybe 2 good games all together.

Wow you guys are hella harsh on developers. Just because they made a bad decision by making Yaris (in collaboration with Backbone Studios i might add) doesn't mean they should get put out of business

have you even seen the game they were working on, Djinn, it looked pretty clean.
