Clover Studios, the game studio that created *Viewtiful Joe, Okami and God Hand.* Capcom didn't have to go and closed down that gaming studios. What is wrong with them?!

[@danielhaire6677]

You forgot one of the most tragic Video Game Studio losses of all time - Westwood Studios. Founded in 1985 and closed in 2003, Estwood would spend nearly two decades as one of gaming's great powerhouses. This studio was the original developer of the legendary Command & Conquer franchise as well as such IPs as Lands of Lore, Eye of the Beholder, Journeyman Project, as well as media tie-ins for BattleTech, Disney, D&D, and others. It was one of many companies bought out by EA to gain control of their IPs. Westwood Studios was shutdown with their operations being absorbed by EA Los Angeles (Sound like a familiar story?)

[@manchesterunitedno7]

This one. Right here. The closure of Westwood made me swear off EA games from then on, regardless of how great the games are.

I miss Midway Games. They were behind the Rampage and Gauntlet games. Now we'll never see HD updates of the games.

[@zaymac117]

And Mortal Kombat

[@jesseking1403]

Well there was the reboot of Gauntlet by Arrowhead, but yeah, I agree with you. I can't even get my hands on Dark Legacy.

[@longschlongjohn4758]

They also made spy hunter and the 50 cent ps2 games

They don't give a crap about anyone who buys their stuff, they just want more. Endless greed and zero innovation.

[@Jeustful]

I'm just depressed with it. I came to the realization that Microsoft will probably never rebound after the Xbox One debacle. They don't seem to know how to manage or even have a vision for their studios. They just aim for profit mostly by trend chasing. There doesn't seem to have any long term well thought out plan. It's just depressing.

[@zakirstocks9514]

I am STILL Super Pissed that from my Childhood Years, Capcom completely shut down Clover Studios, the game studio that created *Viewtiful Joe, Okami and God Hand.* Those games are THE Best Epic Capcom Gaming Masterpieces there is, for the PS2 System, Nintendo GameCube System, PSP Handheld System and Nintendo DS Handheld System. It's just not fair!!!!!!!

[@insanehiker5587]

While Clover made great games the fact that most were platform locked to the GameCube really hurt their sales, the sad thing is that Clover's games were underappreciated in their time.

[@X2011racer]

They would later form Platinum Games, which unfortunately is struggling right now. Bayonetta 3 didn't sell well enough to keep them afloat, and neither did the Playstation version of The Wonderful 101, which was self-published via Kickstarter.

We're literally living in a gaming dark age - this is a great indicator of why year by year we seem to be getting less fantastic games on release, followed by bombardments of negative reception and disappointment, ultimately leading to the closure of brilliant studios who are often acquired by companies such as Microsoft and EA and then not utilised correctly.

[@andrewhaase1826]

5. YOU TAKE THAT BACK! I LOVE THE GUITAR HERO GAMES! I WILL NOT HAVE ANYONE SLANDER ROCK! 1. Microsoft didn't get the memo that making a good game was more important than just selling more copies. I mean, even Capcom was humbled by this lesson and took it to heart. Back in Capcom's dark period, they set their standards for a video game's success too high. One of their requirements for a game to get a sequel or be deemed a success was to sell 2 million copies. Some of these fails include Dragon's Dogma, Power Stone, Okami, Darkstalkers: Ressurection, and Resident Evil 6 and 7. Some of these "failed sales" were due to bad publicity/marketing, ill-advised release dates, being overshadowed by other games, or whatever. And many of their games that failed to meet that threshold pulled in positive reception and sales numbers that other companies would kill to acquire. And yet, Capcom's definition of "success" at the time was so far above what many others would dare to set, that what would seem like an adequate success went down as flops in their book. But at least they eased up since then. After all, Mega Man 11 sold just under 1 million and Capcom was happy enough that the next game is implied to be in pre-production.

[@butcheredalive]

Right?? I loved the generally more difficult songs in Warriors of Rock. It felt amazing to 100% If You Want Peace… Prepare for War by Children of Bodom on even medium difficulty

[@justaguy263]

Welp that's the problem of the whole industry now: Making as much profit as possible despite shiting in the face of many fans who just want to enjoy a good game.

[@jeremyriley1238]

I also liked the Guitar Hero games, but Activision basically ruined the series by deciding to milk the franchise to death, releasing five to six games a year, some of them being mere reskins of Guitar Hero: World Tour (with Band Hero, the series' sole E10+ entry, being a rehash of Guitar Hero 5, which most fans felt was the worst, as despite good reviews from critics, I have seen people say it had the weakest song setlist and sales were probably damaged by the Kurt Cobain controversy. While we are on the topic, we can easily say Vicarious Visions is another game company that should not have ceased to exist. They did the Wii ports to some of the Guitar Hero games, and also developed Crash N. Sane Trilogy and THPS 1+2, but Activision had the stupid idea to have the company absorbed into Blizzard, putting the brakes on THPS 3+4.

[@BlackHammer0891]

Honourable Mentions Bizarre Creations: The British Video Game Company Who Created Project Gotham Racing, Blur Geometry Wars & More Games & It’s Saying It’s Final Goodbye In 2011

[@X2011racer]

There's also: 1. Big Red Button: This was a startup studio established by former Naughty Dog members who were hired by Sega to make a new Sonic game, which turned up as the awful Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric. Before development began, they approached Sega with a Crash tech demo to prove that they are indeed the guys behind Crash. After Sonic Boom, they shut down. It's a shame they didn't last long enough to work on Crash again with Activision now that Vicarious Visions is gone and Toys for Bob has gone indie. 2. Nana-On Sha: The studio that was responsible for Parappa. After Parappa the Rapper 2, the studio went silent until they returned with a brand new collaboration with Majesco and Rodney Greenblatt: Major Minor's Majestic March. The game was a Major failure, and Nana-On Sha fell to financial ruin. Years later, Masaya Matsura, a key member of Nana-On Sha, would later start a Kickstarter for a Parappa successor codenamed Project Rap Rabbit, but it failed to get funded due to ongoing bad stigma surrounding Kickstarter following the release of Yooka-Laylee and Shenmue 3. 3. Compile: Not to be confused with Compile Heart, Compile was responsible for the Madou Monogatari series, which Puyo Puyo was based on. After Puyo Puyo~n, the company suddenly went under, and Sega bought all their IPs. 4. Blue Angel Studio: a mysterious studio responsible for only one game: The Nintendo 64 version of Resident Evil 2. I wonder why they disappeared after that? 5. Eurocom: A company that is known for their Nintendo 64 ports of Cruis'n World and Hydro Thunder, and known for their work on Spyro: A Hero's Tail and Goldeneye 007 Reloaded. Their last game was 007 Legends, which was a colossal financial failure as Activision rushed development of the game due to the 007 license set to expire at the end of the year. As punishment, Activision forced Eurocom to shut down for "incompetence".

[@The-Ink-Dragon97]

For me, its 'PipeWorks Studios'. Anyone who knows what IP they had honor to work on is a legend.

[@AustinT97]

A studio that wasn't mentioned that I miss is another EA studio in EA Black Box. Known for making some of, if not the best, Need For Speed games in the franchise with Underground 1 & 2 and Most Wanted as well as the Skate trilogy. They were merged into EA Vancouver in 2009 and then shut down all together in 2013.

Tango Gameworks shutting down after having a very successful Xbox exclusive (before it came to PS5 of course) is the biggest punch in the gut I've ever had in my life. I loved Hi-Fi RUSH so much, and the fact that Tango was pitching a sequel to Hi-Fi RUSH as well makes it hurt even more.

Not only they cancel their games in favour for online play during the PS3 era, they also shut them down! Eurocom: Any N64/PS1 gamer out there should know this studio. They made a couple of Disney games, Crash Bash, Spyro: A Hero's Tail, Duke Nukem, various Midway games on their original PS1 title, 40 Winks. They were great partners with Midway and Disney.
