Amerikanske Boss Game Studios der nok mest er kendt for deres N64 racer Top Gear Rally, der dengang var meget imponerende, har meldt ud, at de lukker. Dermed droppes deres hidtil største projekt World Driver Championship på gulvet.
Colin Gordon som er chef, sagde følgende:
"It was a ton of fun while it lasted and we appreciate the support everybody gave us. The feedback on World Driver Championship was terrific. We still get people asking for World Driver on GameCube."
Som chef regner han med at de fleste af hans medarbejdere får arbejde i andre firmaer, der i øjeblikket er i gang med store projekter. På spørgsmålet om hvor langt projektet egentlig var og hvor godt spillet var, svarede han følgende:
"In our view it would have been the best Xbox racer to date. It was running at 60 frames per second. It had 25,000 polygon cars along with full scene reflections, skinned drivers and more. We had flag wavers and birds on-screen. We had leaves on the tracks that would blow up as cars drove by -- more leaves on the track than there were polygons in a World Driver track."
Firmaet fandt aldrig en udgiver til spillet, og har ikke med hverken Xbox eller den seneste GameCube version, tænkt sig at få dem afsat nu.
