Why should how big a game matter if you donwload it or not? Especially if its not larger than 50mb. :huh: Missing a great game becuase its under 50mb is just silly. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_dandy_ Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Sierra, huh? Didn't they also cancel some other TV franchise-based games? Some Star Trek thing...Babylon 5...? Actually I may be wrong on the Star Trek game. Somebody will surely correct me. I'm probably thinking of Activision...I don't think Sierra ever had a license for producing Star Trek games.

Im pretty sure it was the Babylon 5 game that Sierra was ment to be publishing but it got canned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Dick Montage Subscriber² Posted February 11, 2007 Subscriber² Share Posted February 11, 2007 Yup was Bab5. In fairness, it was a game slated to come out a fair while after the show had finished. The lack of interest would have been part of the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
