Back in 1994, a little game development studio was created in Australia. Fast-forward to today, and Tantalus have just announced that they are expanding, opening a new studio in Brisbane. The past decade and a half have seen Tantalus shipping more than thirty titles, spread over most major platforms - with their recent successes including Cars: Mater National, Pony Friends, and the freshly-released Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon, for DS.
There are currently 70 developers knuckling down in their Melbourne studio, working on projects for PSP, DS and Wii - and CEO Tom Crago was faced with the decision: continue growing that operation, or create a new studio, to work alongside the existing office.

So here we are at the final instalment of Games On Net’s coverage of Activate Asia 2008. After four days in the land of the Kiwi, many games were played, much beer consumed and surprisingly few sheep spotted (only one! And I could have sworn it was just a non-descript white blob in the distance...).
In our final article today, we’re going to take a look at the latest offerings from Sierra, with two new updates of some original Playstation classics, with Crash: Mind Over Mutant and The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon.

Me, I'm old school. Back in the day we didn't have any of this 3D stuff; we thought more than six colours was pretty spectacular. When the 3D revolution really hit the gaming world, a lot of casualties were left moaning on the battlefield - Sega's crown, for one thing. At that time, it really seemed like the age of platform games had well and truly passed. Nevertheless, they keep coming, and despite the intense over-saturation of the market in the early nineties, there's still something about a good platformer that leaves you wrestling with the control pad when you really ought to be doing something more productive than really nailing that impossible jump. That's why I'm pleased to announce the arrival of a whole platoon of new screens from some of the most promising platform franchises - Sonic the Hedgehog, Crash Bandicoot and The Legend of Spyro.

The third and final chapter for the Legend of Spyro trilogy has finally been announced by Sierra. The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon is currently being developed by Etranges Libellules, and is due for release in Spring.
This time around, Spyro must team up with his former enemy Cynder, to face his most challenging mission ever. The Dark Master (voiced by Mark Hamill) is expanding his evil, taking over the world like a plague - and Spyro must stop him, by unlocking the true power of the purple dragon.
