Eden has posted several times that MGM/Sony approached them to
resubmit their licensing proposal for Stargate back in August of last
year.
Since most licenses last for 5 year as a standard, chances are that
AEG lost the license because it was unable to meet some sort of
criteria within the licensing agreement.
Now George V. did make another statement the other day (cannot
remember where I saw it though), where he basically said that while
Eden has a new licensed product coming in 2005, it is NOT Stargate.
However, the way that he phrased that post, he did not deny that Eden
had the license now. This has made me think that it is possible that
Eden does have the license, and that it will most likely release its own
Stargate game in 2006. <<--- Pure speculation on my part, nothing
