Exactly. Sierra was primarily a publisher, not a creator of games. Way back when? Sure they made some good stuff. But it's been ages since Sierra actually put out a good game that they did much more to than simply publish.

They've been going down for years guys. I can't believe more people didn't see this coming =\

IMO, seirra hasnt made a good game in quite a while, sure, CS gets alot of money, but it has been quite a long time since they made Quest for Glory and Red Barron folks. Yea, homeworld was a very good RTS, but then again there are not that many good ones out there.

lol I feel old school. Everyone is talking about all these games and the only sierra games I remember are things like Lords of the Realm and Lords of Magic, and the like. I'm outdated, I know.

I learned to type before I could write thanks to the original King's Quest (Circa 1983/4)
