Interplay founder reminisces
   

One of five Interplay co-founders, Bill Heineman has posted an <a href="http://burgerbill.livejournal.com/2004/06/03/" target="_blank">entry</a> in his LiveJournal that looks back at the company's past:<blockquote><em>Is the company dead? As a corporation, it's very much alive. But without millions of dollars sunk into the firm just to pay off debt that's due today and millions more to fund operations until a new management team could be found and turn the place around, it's not likely that it will recover.
<br>
<br>So, even though I may be premature in saying this, Farewell Interplay. You were the source of many happy memories for me and thousands of current and former employees. May the games that were created there live on forever in the hearts and minds of gamers everywhere. Bard's Tale, Descent, Battlechess and Wasteland were classics that the games of today still try to duplicate their fun factor, but may never do.</em></blockquote>
