One Thing That Really Bothers Me About NWN

    Those Atari logos that pop up during the loading process. I mean, Atari does not exist. It's a name, nothing more. None of the people who made Atari great were involved with this game in any way, yet I have to look at that stupid logo 4 times while I'm waiting to get into the game.

    It's like me buying the rights to the name of a company that died 10 years ago, and putting out a product tomorrow under this name.

    Sorry, I had to get this off of my chest. This small thing really didn't affect my judgement of the game (not bad, but coulda been better), and it's not a major deal, but it does bother me to see the name of one of the industry giants waved about with no respect like this.

    Atari is owned by InfoGrames. InfoGrames has been releasing some major games under the Atari title ie NwN and UT2003.

    The reason they are doing this is explanined in their press release from www.infogrames.com

    So in summary infogrames (Atari) was awarded the global publishing rights of NwN, and that is why you see an Atari logo in the splash screen
