   King's Quest fans rejoice
http://www.savekqix.org/Quote:On December 9, 2005, Vivendi Universal Games announced that they would allow King's Quest IX (now renamed "The Silver Lining") to continue!!All of us here at Save King's Quest IX wish to say THANK YOU to everyone that participated in this campaign. It was only because of your help that we were able to save the game.Here is Vivendi's official statement:“After extensive evaluation, Vivendi Universal Games is pleased to announce that the fan developed trilogy project ‘The Silver Lining' (previously known as King's Quest IX: Every Cloak Has A Silver Lining), based on characters from Sierra Entertainment's King's Quest series, has been given approval to continue development. We look forward to seeing the first of its three upcoming chapters, ‘Shadows', completed soon.” Since it's dated Dec9, it may be old, but I figured it was still worth posting. Even though I have only a loose familiarity with KQ, I still find this extremely surprising. Hopefully it can set a precedent for the future?   
*cough* [grin]   ;  Yeah, but who checks the Your Announcements forum anyways.   ;  Well I have to say thats awsome! I've being following the http://www.kqix.com/ for awhile. It's nice to see Vivendi drop the corp fat greedy attitude, especially since they had no plans to use that IP. It almost feels a little Sierra-ish :)   ;  YAY!!!!!the fans won!!! =D
