Award winning Conan The Barberian???

How can game that's not even in open beta win an award? For what? Of course while some might not heard of AO, everyone knows Conan (usually portrayed by Arnold).

I'm thoroughly convinced FC wants AO to fail so they can focus on Conan...

Uhh. They have two entirely seperate dev teams for each game. It won't affect AO in any way unless its sucessful, then Funcom would have more to spend on their other games as well.

Yup, Funcom has several different divisions, this is true. But one can't help wondering why they can't seem to meet some of their goals for Anarchy Online when they have different divisions working on other games. You'd think it'd be easy to draw on some of those resources to get things squared away once and for all. But alas, I suppose it's much more complicated than that.

Down with Conan! *shoves a pike in Arnold's foot and runs away, letting a predator shoot nets at him*
