FORGOTTEN!

Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.

Troika only did really one good game: Bloodlines. It's good though the ex-people all got new jobs at great companies like Obsidian, Blizzard etc.

Rain makes everything better.

Never forget!

Never forget...

 

...that Troika failed.

Never forget...

 

...that Troika was awesome.

I fail to see how making two great games and one good game was "failing."

They made two 3 games all of which weren't exactly successful. They made 1 great game, 1 good game, and 1 bad game. That's my eprosnal opinion but it means nothing as they bombed. If they were so awesome, they'd still in business. Bottom line, they failed. They made games that not enough people wanted to play. That's Failure with a capital F no matter how much one might personally like said games.

What's Troika?

One billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the galaxy. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips. I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my viens. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk, and free throw. I am there.

It's an antioxidant-based cleaning detergent. I don't know why they go on about it all the time.

Seriously, what's a Troika?

"Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"

If they were so awesome, they'd still in business.

 

Incorrect. Just because the masses did not buy the games does not mean the the games themselves were bad, nor does it mean the company was bad.

A collection of three.

Troika didn't do anything wrong, it was the big meanies who didn't buy their games. I bought all three, did you? If not, then congratulations, you destroyed Troika, I hope you're happy.

I bought all three, did you?

 

Yes. :p

R.I.P. Amen! :good: o:) No, can't say that I bought their games; back then, money was scarce and I somehow missed them.
