The Tragedy of Pandemic Studios
SUBSCRIBE: http://bit.ly/SubMonstersReview
Pandemic Studios was a game developer established in 1998 by Josh Resnick and Andrew Goldman. They're perhaps most well known for developing the first two Star Wars Battlefront games, Destroy All Humans, and Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction. The studio mysteriously closed their doors in 2009, not long after getting acquired by Electronic Arts (EA). Today, I take a look back at this now-defunct creative powerhouse and what may have lead to its demise.
