This sucks. In a great loss for the gaming industry and community, Threewave Software out of Vancouver has closed its doors. GamaSutra has a write-up, though it was initially announced not long ago through Twitter by Josh Smillie of Ubisoft Vancouver.

Threewave CTF practically changed online gaming, which was in its infancy at the time of the mod’s release in 1996.  I spent an embarrassing amount of hours playing this mod, not to mention all the clones since.
