Subject: OT: Bad B5 Sim news.

Hello all:

	Everyone remember that Sierra was going to a Babylon 5 space
combat
simulator with realistic physics models for movenment and fantastic
graphics of nearly every ship in the B5 pantheon?  

	Well in case you haven't heard, you can forget about it.  Sierra
has
just announce that they are splitting up their company into three
subsidaries and they are going to be scrapping B5 along with a few other
projects.  The company said these games did not meet its "success
criteria."  (WHAT?!?!?)  Sierra news structure will allow them come out
with a new bass fishing game and a championchip bull riding program.
	
	First Crusade get's screwed by TNT, then Sleeping in Light loses
the
Hugo to The Truman Show (errrrr... I thought that the Hugo was an award
for science ficton, not vehicles for bad comedians), and now this.  It
has not been a good year for Babylon 5.
