I hate to say this but 3drealms itself is the laughing stock. I'm pretty sure the reason Take Two pulled the plug on 3drealms was the April Fool's joke on DNF coming out on Atari. At best 3drealms is on life support relying on Max Payne 1 and 2 sales and selling the rights. Take Two may have been foolish to take on 3drealms and DNF but George Broussard was even worse in firing back. If 3drealms would just release the damn game and get it over with, this kind of fighting wouldn't be taking place already.
