A few days ago some rumours indicated that the Troika heads turned down several major contracts to work on CRPGs for the next gen consoles near the end of the company. We contacted Leonard Boyarsky and he had this to say in response:<blockquote>Those rumors are completely wrong. We did not turn down anything, we were never offered any next gen console contracts (or any other contracts for that matter). We did do a small project for DARPA, working on an AI program to take over the world, but that's highly classified.</blockquote>That clears that up, then. As for the DARPA-thing; nobody ever heard anything, right?
