Weaknesses[edit]
Since there is a mention of positive things they are noted for, I believe there should be one of their weaknesses. Perhaps a seperate strengths and weaknesses section. I volunteer to write it. The main thing I believe shoudl be included is the incredibly weak AI. Almost all of their games are great, but the AI is a crime against video games --Nightfighter89 03:53, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
- The only comment I have to that is ti keep it NPOV. If you can do that, then go ahead, seems fine to me.Sabrebattletank 04:01, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
- Well I do believe I can do that. Fixed your syntax, btw --Nightfighter89 04:08, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks. Go for it. Sabrebattletank 04:38, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
- There, I done it. Feel free to point out anything I could have done better --Nightfighter89 19:37, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
- All I would say is: Can you give a source? Sabrebattletank 04:36, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
- Not really. It's mostly based off of what I, as a gamer, know. It's what I have learned is the general opinion from message boards and whatnot. I doubt I could find a scholarly source on that anyways... But the information is valid, nonetheless --Nightfighter89 04:34, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
- What you're describing is textbook original research, which is not permitted on Wikipedia. SubSeven 01:01, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
I've removed the the section on AI in Pandemic games. Please, find me an legitimate article somewhere that criticizes their AI. just thought it would be worth noting that there is no mention of Saboteur, the Pandemic/Bioware/Elevation endeavor nor even an article for the game itself. it is, however, featured in the most recent GameInformer.
Slogan[edit]
I'm just pointing out that Pandemic possibly do have a slogan
when the pandemic logo shows at the beginning on Full Spectrum Warrior, you can hear a disembodied voice saying the word "The only thing left to fear is: Fear itself."
I think this should at least be mentioned 82.47.137.100 (talk) 23:30, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
Former Programmers[edit]
Matt of "where the hell is matt" fame (the dancing guy) was a former coder at Pandemic Studios in the USA and in Brisbane. This is mentioned in the About Matt section of his website: http://www.wherethehellismatt.com/about.shtml He speaks in more depth about working for Pandemic (as the supposed 'idea guy' for Kill All Humans!) in the videos on his site.

Mercanaries[edit]
Pandemic Studios makes games —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.228.155.243 (talk) 21:24, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
Rushed Game Bit[edit]
I removed " They are known for making rushed, unbalanced games full of bugs and exploits." As this seems unverified and full of sketchy wording. 161.31.236.68 (talk) 06:58, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
Update[edit]
This article needs to be updated as Pandemic ceased to exist —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.168.207.175 (talk) 23:21, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
