No Daikatana Source -- 6:17 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Planet Daikatana is reporting that ION Storm will not be releasing source code for the 1.2 version of Daikatana. What does this mean? No mods. Ever. Here's a snip:
...We also talked about Daikatana game source. The unfortunate news is that since the team is working on their next project, they haven't the resources to devote to releasing the source. Sadly, even if the source was released, almost all of the ease-of-modification code was removed while crunching to get the game released, rendering it all but useless. In layman's terms, this means no single-player or multiplayer modifications.
Well, I think that qualifies as the final nail in the proverbial coffin. Thanks Evil Avatar.

The Master comments: Does anyone else get the feeling Romero, ION, and Eidos just wish Diakatana would just go away and never have happened? Just asking.
