I personally think Jane Jensen holds the future of Sierra in her hands. But calling RW "talentless." What's the last adventure game you put together huh? Can you provide us with a downloadable demo, so we can all see how it's done? Do you have any idea the amount of scripting, coding, and design work that goes into an adventure game, and, YES, talent! It is fine to criticize someone's work or even state that it is subpar in comparison to the works of others. But, I think you'd offend every creative mind in the computer gaming industry by saying that Roberta Williams has no talent. Alex
