Main Page | See live article | Alphabetical index Legend Entertainment is an American developer of computer games. The company was founded in 1989 by Bob Bates and Mike Verdu after the end of Infocom. Their goal was to design interactive fiction in the Infocom tradition. Their first products were all illustrated text adventures, some of them designed by Infocom veteran Steve Meretzky. Starting in 1993, they switched to a new development system for graphic-only adventures. Several of their adventure games were based on book licenses, including Frederik Pohl's Gateway, Terry Brooks' Shannara and Piers Anthony's Xanth. The company was acquired by GT Interactive in 1998 and began changing their focus to action games. They developed a first-person shooter based on Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time and finished the development of the second part in the Unreal series in 2002. Today, Legend is part of Atari, Inc. (formerly Infogrames). This article is from Wikipedia. All text is available under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License.
