Epic Games Now Owns People Can Fly  Epic Games bought a majority
stake in Bulletstorm and Painkiller developer People Can Fly in
2007, and as of today they own the company outright. Epic Games
announced that it has purchased the Warsaw, Poland-based
developer who is currently working on Gears of War Judgment,
though for how much they did not disclose. Epic made the
decision to buy the company last week.  On a related note,
Adrian Chmielarz, Andrzej Poznanski and Michal Kosieradzki have
left the company. Epic's Mark Rein says that these departures
will not affect the studio's ongoing projects in any way.  "We
doubled down on People Can Fly," Rein told Polygon this morning.
"It was something we always hoped to do."  Rein also said that
Epic will be working with Adrian Chmielarz on a future project,
so it sounds like these departures were amicable.  Epic Games
now owns five subsidiaries: Chair, Impossible Games, People Can
Fly, Epic Japan and Epic Korea.  Source: Polygon    One comment
