Microïds sounded much better imho. The two dots on the ï made the whole difference.

There's no point - just click!

I really liked Microïds... It was so original.

Why didn't Wanadoo and Cryo combine to make:

"WannaCry".

Please proofread your posts carefully to see if you any words out.

They purposely didn't because they were afraid you'd say that.

hmm

personally "micriods" reminded me of "hemoroids" :


it always bugged me , not only that, it was too 80's sounding..

MC2 will look much better as a logo...

Spare me the welcoming commitee, I love Microids but Wanadoo is the most craptastic company of the of 2003. Why?! Cause after the merger between the 2 companies they abandoned all their technical support for their previous games. There was one game called Haegemonia: The Solon Heritage. It's an expansion to 2002's Legions of Iron. The game was released as an MP game only across Europe. It was going to be released in the US with an extra Single Player campaign(which Euro users could download on a later date) continuing the story of Legions of Iron, but before Dreamcatcher could secure the rights to publish it, Wanadoo announced the merger and no deal was made.
The fans were furious, I was pissed off, Dreamcatcher remained silent. The worst part is the developer doesn't have the rights to the game so not only there won't be a sequel but also US gamers won't able to get it!
