The head of Gearbox Software Randy Pitchford nurtures a soft spot for old brands. First he knocked out his studio for the rights to develop Aliens: Colonial Marines, and then did everything to get and Duke Nukem Forever. But some dreams Pitchford realize it was not possible. Talking to journalists, the head of Official PlayStation Magazine Gearbox Software said that several years ago, he and his colleagues compiled a list of brands on the grounds that they would like to make games. The list is hit and `Blade RunnerВ» (Blade Runner), and the studio had a real chance to negotiate with copyright holders, but eventually the idea was abandoned. `Such a game would cost us about $ 40 million and sold to not more than 600 000 copies. For our studio, this would mean the end of. We have not seen a rational business model, which would make this idea to make. Well, if we did come up with a suitable way, it already would have been wrong game based on Blade Runner, which we all wanted to do, `- admitted Pitchford. With the Head of Gearbox`s hard not to agree. Many of the current generation of players did not even have heard of Blade Runner, so the commercial success of this project is in serious doubt
