Infogrames was a large French gaming company, famous for many titles, including ''Alone in the Dark'', ''Shadow of the Comet'', and ''Hogs of War''. The company began in 1983. They made several major acquisitions in late 90's, which included Ocean Software, Philips Media, Gremlin Interactive, Accolade, Beam Software, GT Interactive Software, Humongous Entertainment, Shiny Entertainment, Eden Games and Hasbro Interactive (with the MicroProse and Atari brands). The brand name of Atari, taken from Hasbro, was relaunched in October 2001 and replaced Infogrames' name in all games since 2003. In October 2008 the company fully assimilated the Atari name and eventually became the new Atari, Inc. in the following year, after many financial struggles. | |||
