The big issue with Popcap is that pre-EA, they had become a mid-tier publisher of indie games as well, and it looks like the EA deal put a screeching halt to that, to the point that you realize how little their in-house team actually did*. The company's webpage only lists 5 series now: Peggle, PvZ, Zuma, Bejeweled, and Bookworm... and then you look and realize they're either due for a new wave of games, or completely dead, because all their post-EA stuff came in two waves, one in 2014, and one in 2016.

Anyway I've spent way too much time on this because I tried tracking down who did some of the smaller games they used to do that are now fuckin' dead and that sucked.

* I presume? I legitimately have no idea why you would not list your products as part of your catalog, but a not-tiny amount of these are still on sale on Steam, so...

The new Tomb Raider made a larger percentage of its budget back than the original film despite being a more modest hit overall. Believe it or not the 2001 movie was a $200 million production.

Well yeah, they had to invent a minidisc robot that also did combat.

Bullshit, it should be Gex and Bubsy.

Bubsy already got his reboot, let the lizards have their turn.

(I would legit play Gex x Croc)

I really think we are going to see what happens when Kojima doesn't have someone controlling him and it may not be pretty. Hope I'm wrong.

I kinda feel Fauxtaku got this in one:
