      Or, Angel Studios became Rockstar San Diego and they made Red Dead Revolver instead.

      But I admire your hate version.

        Rockstar is pretty shitty to devs, but okay, the Midtown Madness devs did have a glow up because they were under new management

        I just recenly learned about Oni 2s leaked prototype existence and I’m salty that they piecemealed that IP into oblivion… HOWEVER…Oni’s engine would become the RAGE engine that powers and gave life to GTA IV, Red Dead Redemption, GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 (…and perhaps GTA VI…?)

          Oni still had better hand to hand combat gameplay than all of those games though 😅

          That’s interesting, I didn’t know it was the basis for the Rage engine. Thanks.

      Boo rockstar. That game’s mechanics were some of the most fun I ever experienced. It was absolutely crying out for a sequel.
