No matter your opinion of the game, there was no doubting that some very talented and passionate people worked on Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Unfortunately, a large number of them were let go by LucasArts before it even shipped, including producer Isa Anne Stamos.
While we don't know where everyone landed (and we hope they did safely), Stamos has been found at MMO dev Mindfuse. There she will oversee design and production of the studio's "advanced-casual" MMO, Gathryn, along with "all future MindFuse titles." Good luck, Isa ... and may the (ahem) ... ForceTM be with you.

I thought the game performed very well at retail? I guess the layoffs were for other reasons entirely.

It went against tradition. After all, there are only ever two, a master and an apprentice.

Which is why he was a secret apprentice. Plus, if you actually finished the game there's a reason for it all. The story was awesome, just a shame the gameplay wasn't.

I was actually talking about why everyone got layed off, but now the joke's ruined. Ah well, I just hope everyone who appreciates subtlety saw it before now.

Now, this may just be me, but has anyone else considered that the picture above displays 3 floating people shooting out powerful electrical magic at a poor defenceless person's hands?
