Vanguard: April Jones Interview @ Ten Ton Hammer

Sigil's Senior Manager of Marketing and Public Relations has been <a href="http://vanguard.tentonhammer.com/index.php?module=ContentExpress&func=display&ceid=296" target="_blank">interviewed</a> at Ten Ton Hammer:<blockquote><em><b>[Ten Ton Hammer]: When we last spoke at GDC in late March, you described Microsoft as being "highly supportive." Did something change between then and when Microsoft sold the publishing rights to Sigil, who in turn entered a co-publishing deal with SOE? Do the rumors about Microsoft wanting to put Vanguard exclusively on Vista play into this at all?</b><br><br>[April Jones]: Microsoft is actually still highly supportive of Vanguard so that statement is still true. The game remains a premier title for the Windows platform, after all. So their belief in the game and desire to see it succeed hasna "!t changed at all. However, we started to realize that we had differing opinions about a number of specific topics ranging from marketing tactics and our presence at E3 to when our release date should be; nothing related to Vista was an issue in the decision to part ways. Ita "!s been interesting to see the creative efforts behind some of the conspiracy theories though. I only wish our dealings were that exciting and full of intrigue.</em></blockquote>
