The Trouble with TimeSplitters

Stephen Gradwell of DarkZero writes "Back in December last year Free Radical Design employees arrived at work to find the doors locked, facing Christmas redundancy packages. A distress call was sent throughout the industry to help the bankrupt independent developers, and fans and industry boffins alike waited cautiously to see if anyone thought FRD was a tasty enough acquisition.

After a few desperate days Crytek confirmed a buy-out and FRD was renamed Crytek UK. And so the fans and industry boffins did a damage assessment, were Crytek the saviours of the beleaguered developers of the much hailed TimeSplitters series and the universally lambasted Haze?"
