Y' know, for all the restructuring they' ve been doing, I' d sure like to see if they have anything of consequence on the table software-wise.

Atari needs it, they are close to closing down, They need something big and I dont know if they can fund it or wait that long.

If I was in charge I would go the cheap and casual game approach [for wii, online, ps2 whatever] untill they get some money back and invest in a new ip.

Yeah. I' m not sure they' ll turn enough profit to come back strong in the real games market though, at least not fast enough.
