GTR, GTR2, GT Legends Mutiplayer Lobbies Return

http://www.simracingworld.com/news/1...lobby-back-up/

Online racing fans of GTR, GTR2 and GT Legends will have found over the last
few days that the lobby servers went down due to 10Tacle Studios AG's
insolvency situation. However, news has reached us today that SimBin, the
games' developer have taken control of the lobby once more, and fans will
now be able to play online once more.

"We want to make sure that our fans can continue to enjoy our games on
line and we are very happy that we could find a fast and positive solution
together with KGN" said Henrik Roos, SimBin CEO. "It is of course sad to
hear that our former partner has ended up in this situation", added Roos.

"KGN's K-Play has been supporting 'GTR', 'GTL' and 'GTR 2' from the
start and we are proud to be the key service-provider for these great games.
Therefore we will continue our service in cooperation with SimBin in spite
of the unfortunate insolvency of 10tacle. The cooperation will have K-Play
continuing all the online-services for 'GTR', 'GTL' and 'GTR 2' waiving all
additional fees and SimBin covering only the arising costs of keeping the
server-infrastructure online" said Götz Klingelhöfer, CEO of KGN.

That's pretty cool

I wouldn't think so because 10tacle was the publisher, not the
developer. Race07 (which GTR Evolution is going to be an addon for) is
developed by SimBin who are still alive and kicking.
