Anyone else monitoring this? bidspotter.com has the auction running right now, auctioning off all of their gear.. I cannot believe what people are paying for equipment, are they stupid?
wow talk about wasting money. they seriously thought they were going to be around for the long haul or they wanted to spend all the initial money so they wouldnt have to give it back.
i realize that you have to make a relatively plush work environment in order to lure experienced coders away from whatever studio they are working at, but the number of creature comfort item vs production tools is pretty scary. crap ton of very specialize audio and switching equipment, all very unused looking.
When you work on a game and deadlines are coming up, it is not uncommon to not go home a day or two in a row. Because of that studios have all the stuff they do to keep the guys happy or at least not as pissed. Granted, from the stuff I browsed a little bit of, it seems they went a bit overboard, but you would be surprised to see how some places are.
