Ensemble Studios’ Graeme Devine has stated that he believes Microsoft made a mistake in shutting down the studios.
Talking to us last week, Devine stated:
“I’ve been working on Halo Wars for over four years, so I’m not about to walk away from a game I’ve spent four years of my life with. It’d be very easy for us to just finish a game, mail it in and sell that but we are not really in it for that. It’s our proud shout to Microsoft, and the reason why their mistake is so obvious. Ensemble is going out with a bang.”
He also revealed that he will not be working for the new studio being formed from parts of Ensemble following Halo Wars’ release in February.
