Heya, jsut thought you guys might like to know this for your "Developers" page. There was a game dev studio Ellipse Studios, down at Christies Beach South Autralia, but it closed a few years ago, and as far as I know most of the people have moved to RatBag.

Yeh, I was thinking of making an archive of Australian developers that have finished up and are no more. It'll be good just to have some sort of record of them, and Sumea is definately the site that's suited to provide that info. Another good studio was Eyst, which made the game Wartorn.. There were also lots and lots of little start ups too.. If anyone knows any other companies, give us a yell, and I'll compile a list..

Erm, just a little niggly error that I don't think deserves its own post.
The States for the two former game dev companies Silver Lightning software, and Ellipse studios have to be swapped, it was Ellipse that was in South Australia, and SLS in WA I believe.
