    This thing has been delayed on and off for the last few years.

    Whatever is going on with this game, it’s not a good sign. There was a fan made game called Stargate Network that flew under the radar for a long long time. Once this game, Timekeepers, started MGM shut them down. Stargate Network was praised by fans, and even by actors from the show, as an accurate recreation of what we saw on the TV show.

    So far feedback of the demo has been poor. Stargate seems to be cursed in the video game space.

      The people who have the budget don’t care about the end result quality or how in-line it is. Only that it makes money.

      The people who have the passion to make it true to form, and entertaining to play, don’t have the budget or legal team.

      And they won’t play nice with corporate suits (meaning they won’t bend over and compromise quality for profit) so the people who have the budget have no interest in the people with the talent.

    I love Stargate, I wish I was excited for this game. I wasn’t all that impressed by the demos I saw a few years ago.

    Hope in those years the final product changes my mind

    That’s still good news for me - I haven’t been reading news about it and thought it was yet another dead Stargate game.
