Sierra Interview

Sep 21, 1999 10:37pm CST tags: Valve, Half-Life, Interview, Sierra
With the big announcement of the Babylon5 game being canned which has so many people up in arms, AVault has conducted an interview with David Grenewetzki, the president of Sierra Online. Also of interest is this quote confirming that Half-Life2 is indeed in development over at Valve (from page2):

He has working in his organization the SWAT guys and the guys from Troika, the former Fallout team who are now building a new product with us. Moving forward, we have Homeworld, which just shipped, and its sequel, Homeworld 2, which we are currently evaluating at this time. Also coming from Valve are Team Fortress 2 as well as Half-Life 2, and Mark’s got an incredible design team in Impressions Games, probably the most successful group within Sierra, which is shipping Pharaoh, an incredible title, this year.
