I guess (thinking about it) they have every right to protect their 'intellectual property' however they seem fit - maybe because it could open a 'Pandora's Box' to a community-driven pseudo-SH4 and perhaps they want to keep that option open to themselves? :hmm:
As far as the Team break up is concerned, I wish every one of them the very best of luck in their future endeavours and thanks for a great game.
