Like I said, they're rivals. It's business. That would be like Bob Iger being CEO of Disney and Universal Studios at the same time. |

There was probably some rubbish with Sulake at the same time which was just the icing on the cake. Get rid of the game - it's a headache. Quote:

if we were too blind to notice what particular Disney game we were playing. Whether Sulake is involved we can't say for sure, but for now I just don't see it.

The point I'm trying to make is that the 2 associations are unrelated. The facts support it. If a bidding war had taken place, VMK would have closed in January 2008 immediately following the Paramount-Sulake agreement. But no, it did not. The reason for the closing is simple. Disney didn't think VMK would benefit them financially as a pay-to-play game, so they shut it down.

Also, we know that there were a lot of new items yet to introduced into the game which is another reason I don't buy their anniversary explanation.

Didn't you notice all of the advertisement? The sci-fi drive in's screen, in-park quests. VMK advertised for Disney while we played. But as the economy has been worsening, Disney probably thought free virtual games were the first to go, or that the advertising wasn't worth it. Cuts have to be made in a company. Even workers at the parks got cuts.

This was the mistake. VMK had potential. But Disney decided to look to their other online games for revenue.

Do you recall a Yavn Speaks where he mentioned big plans for the third birthday back in May-June 2007? They were big alright... |

And even if money had to be paid to void the Disney-Sulake agreement, why would Disney wait 5 months to pay it? According to your theory, doesn't Disney want to be disconnected from Paramount?

Disney would have to close the game immediately under your theory because Sulake would have controlled the game engine and with Sulake being separated from Disney, the game could not operate. There is no way Paramount would allow Sulake to "run out it's time" with Disney if they won the bidding war.
