There were reports of 2K being on its way out? That's hard to believe.

take 2 interactive is the parent company, they have grand theft auto series, i highly doubt that rumor has any validity

I agree, Yukes was good for the New Japan Pro Wrestling series back on PS1 but they have lost their "thing" over the years. Sophia(AKI) should be good if not someone new who is passionate about delivering a great game engine over just shiny graphics.

Like goh pointed out, just because a company over a decade ago was good, doesn't mean they are now. They changed their name, possibly with reason. I doubt anyone who was there is there now. Let's just wait and see who all is involved with this.

Before 2K was putting up record numbers with Michael Jordan, Take Two wasn't doing that well outside of Rockstar's GTA franchise. Things were to the point that they were nearly acquired by Electronic Arts. This was all just prior to the release of GTA IV. GTA, Red Dead, 2K 11, 12, 13, Borderlands have helped Take Two get to where they are now. It wasn't a rumor that they were on the way out, it was actually a fact confirmed by EA and Take Two themselves.

That was pretty cool. Very talented guy whoever made those videos. They were exact replica's of their games.

Funny how EA's version didn't have any gameplay videos.. Probably because it was glitched!
