George is said to have previously went to iD Software and Epic in an attempt to make a deal with funding for them, but is turned down.ġ6.was also said to still have plans to contact other companies to make similar requests.ġ7.
It would be like iD selling the Doom IP.ġ5. The purpose of not selling the IP is because the Duke IP still has the potential to make money, and it is their trademark. George\They refuse this and keep the Duke IP, instead shutting down the company and going on life support.ġ4.

When George requested the $5 million from Take 2 so DNF development could be funded.ġ2. Vague references were made to Take 2 possibly having (verbally) promising money, but didn't deliver.ġ1. Since Scott is out, and so is money, George drives out to California to show Take 2 the game in an attempt to wow them into funding development to finish DNF.ġ0. A year or so later George wasn't able to handle it, especially with lack of Scott's personal and financial cooperation.ĩ.

Scott looks to other things like Radar Group and newly launched Apogee Software LLC and leaves 3D Realms in Georges hands.ĥ.
Scott who is arguably the smarter businessman gets tired of this over time and doesn't want to dump his money into it anymore.Ĥ. DNF taking forever to make costs tons of money.ģ. George and Scott own equal parts of 3D Realms.Ģ. If all the bits and pieces mentioned in various places (true or not) were put together it would go something like this: Link mentioned upthread sorts through the rumors like this: No YOU'RE a Towel: A co-worker of mine who used to work at 3D Realms said that Take Two had taken over the project.
