You know as well as I, that reality has little bearing for entertainment
industry land sharks.

Who would have thought after all this time that Atari would be defending its brand and reclaiming its 2600 code base (http://www.complex.com/video-games/2011/08/atari-targets-dedicated-fansites-for-shutdown). Namco, et al, are doing the same.

BTW, according to atari2600.org, Atari has tanked the "land sharks".

My question is, "who owes the 'Prince of Persia' brand?" I believe it is still Mechner.
