Gone?

Is Perpetual gone? http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1313310/000136231007003149/c71677e6vk.htm

To add just a little background, the answer is no. Perpetual Entertainment remains an active entity and is continuing to develop both the Perpetual Entertainment Platform and Star Trek Online. On or just after the cancellation of Gods and Heroes and the activities described in the SEC filing, Perpetual Entertainment secured new investment (presumably with another Korean firm like Gravity, though ShackNews has reported that this firm may be a media company) and maintains its development and pre-liquidation management staff. According to the executive producer, Daron Stinnett, they're currently working to select a publisher for STO.

It is unclear exactly what the specific financial and ownership details are regarding Perpetual - there's reference on their corporate jobs page to a "P2 Entertainment" - but what's known is that they're actively developing STO. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.230.166.114 (talk) 04:55, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Move?

Should this page be moved to P2 Entertainment, as currently it seems as though that's what it is now known as. Then again, who knows with this company. --Resplendent (talk) 00:27, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Notability

Hello. This company came and went without creating any product. I slapped on a notability tag to elicit discussion on what to do. Should we even delete the article? Regards, CapnZapp (talk) 15:08, 14 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Considering the high-profile employees that worked there for several years, the Star Trek license, the awards won by Gods & Heroes, the firestorm that surrounded their collapse and the amount of industry press that accompanied it, I find it hard to call the company non-notable. It was certainly notable, and generated a lot of product: Gods & Heroes was in beta, with pre-order boxes in stores; Star Trek produced enough that it was sold to another company; and Bioware had licensed their platform. The lack of an official game release is disappointing, but I don't think it warrants erasure. aeonite (talk) 16:20, 14 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Notability is determined by whether the subject has "received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject", not by how many games they produce. Perpetual had a lot of coverage between its work on Star Trek Online, Gods and Heroes, and the odd circumstances of its demise. So I would support this article's continued existance. ~Pesco^{So say•we all} 22:38, 14 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I will remove the notability tag tomorrow unless I see an objection. ~Pesco^{So say•we all} 20:18, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Another new company

It appears that the assets of Perpetual Entertainment, after being transferred to P2 Entertainment, were further resold to CDRV Media, Inc. (a Delaware corporation formed in June 2008), doing business as PlayGrid. The same individuals appear to be involved with the new company, including the CEO Chris McKibbin and almost all of the senior staff. CDRV Media's headquarters are half a block away from the former offices of Perpetual Entertainment.

I'm not sure whether this is notable or not, since I can't find any discussion of it in secondary sources. I just thought I'd leave these clues here in case it ever becomes notable again. Jt12852 (talk) 04:32, 11 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
