I normally don’t talk about rumors, but if Earth Eternal can get bought up I’d like to think 130,000 player strong All Points Bulletin can get a reprieve as well. There are rumors flying around that Epic Games is gearing up to buy All Points Bulletin, no doubt a disappointment to the players currently working on private servers for the fledgling, if slightly cancelled, MMO. Say what you want about APB, the game didn’t really deserve to crash so early after launch, if anything for the sake of the people who still had 30+ hours of their gametime left (me).
If Epic Games picks up APB, hopefully they will relaunch it as a free to play game with microtransactions and VIP, ala Crimecraft. With the recent updates to the driving and shooting mechanics, APB improved vastly over its previous incarnation.
For those of you who are still wondering how this rumor came to be, Epic’s CEO Mark Rein loves APB. Loves it, almost like a man loves his football. Epic’s spokesperson commented that if there are talks going on, they are in full confidentiality, so there won’t be any information until it goes official, assuming it is credible.
More on APB if it ever appears.

Epic will buy APB, and then turn it into a console only game. 😛 They abandoned the PC years ago.
