“We don’t release failures”: Blizzard
February 7th, 2008 @ 20:31
Speaking at the DICE Summit in Las Vegas, Blizzard boss and co-founder Mike Morhaime has shown off a slide full of projects that never saw light of say, saying, “We don’t have a 100 percent success rate. We just don’t release failures.”
The unused projects included titles such as Crixa, Shattered Nations, Pax Imperia and Denizen.
Morhaime also spoke on the impending merger of Activision and Blizzard, joking, “Once the Activision Blizzard merger goes through, Bobby Kotick will be my eighth boss.”
DICE comes to a close tomorrow. The Interactive Achievment Awards are going to be announced at the summit sometime this evening.

I can distinctly recall playing Pax Imperia on my PC a few years ago. O.o

I think they farmed it out to another company. It says here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pax_Imperia:_Eminent_Domain) that it was published by Atari and developed by Heliotrope.
