Le PDG de Crytek Cevat Yerli ne cesse de crier sur tous les toits qu'il veut bien se pencher sur un retour de Time Splitters, peu importe sous quelle forme, mais seulement si le désir des fans est suffisant. Du coup, une pétition est apparue sur le web afin de réclamer corps et âmes une compilation HD des trois opus de la série. Cette pétition se fixe pour objectif 300 000 signatures et il en manque 267 000 au moment où je vous parle.

Yerli est au courant mais ne semble pas super emballé par le résultat pour l'instant, comme il l'explique chez Game Informer:

"There is actually a petition running online trying to bring the fan base together. But unfortunately the petition doesn’t look that convincing. If the petition picks up it will be an even better argument for us. At a personal level, I’m a big fan of Timesplitters 2. For me, I would love to see the game out there, as a newborn HD version or what not. I definitely would love to see it. But the case of turning this into a business decision is still difficult, despite the fact that there was a Twitter request feed to test the waters. And now the petition, it just seems to be as we expected, as it was when it was Free Radical... There’s a very hardcore market that is very verbal about it. I would love to see this, and if the fan base approves a further petition. They’re trying to call 300,000 voices, I think it’s at two or three thousand right now. If they could get the petition together I would be very happy to put in front of decision makers in the company, the key stakeholders, and say “Look here. This is how it is, let’s make it now."

Bon ben, vous savez ce qu'il vous reste à faire, à moins que vous vous en foutiez complètement.
