GI said: "Archer Maclean has resigned as Creative Director at the Awesome Studios division of Ignition Entertainment with immediate effect, the British company announced today.

Ignition was quick to stress that it retains all intellectual property rights to past and future Awesome Studios titles and that projects in development will not be affected.

One source close to the developer told GamesIndustry.biz that he expected Ignition's work to withstand the loss of the company's most visible asset - a regular interviewee in the pages of games magazines and online - as Maclean was "more of a figurehead".

Specifically, work on Mercury 2 - the follow-up to what is now Archer Maclean's last Awesome Studios project, Mercury - is said to be unaffected."

Spin spin goes the PR machine. I'd feel worse about this if Mercury didn't suck so much.

You have such a way with words. Well considering 100% of the reviews I have seen for this game have been above 75-80 out of 100, not to mention I own it, I'd have to say people like it and that means it is good.

Now if you don't like it.. say you don't like it.. but I feel sorry for you if you think your opnion is written in stone. (I'm sorry, I'm just getting really pissed off at people lately that say "wah, such and such __________- sucks", when in reality, the person just needs to realize "either you suck AT it, or you aren't into these kinds of games".

If you knew what archer maclean has done for physics programming, you'd care.
