Eidos may not have completely given up developing for the GameCube.
Despite reports that Eidos were to drop the GameCube it seems that they may develop games for it in the future. According to Robert Dyer, president of Eidos Interactive, they will develop games on a game-by-game basis.
"We look at each title and try to determine if we think there is an opportunity on the Cube," said Dyer, "We released Hitman 2 and Italian Job for it and will continue to look at what might work with it. As of today, we haven"t announced anything coming up, but that isn"t to say we wouldn"t do something in the future."
With the success of games like Hitman 2 and TimeSplitters 2 on the GameCube we may be getting the big games from them.
