John Romero confirmed in this thread on ROME.RO Forums that he left Midway 3 weeks ago (thanks: Blues). We remind you that John Romero and Josh Sawyer (Icewind Dale) were working on Gauntlet: Seven Sorrows, the game which marks the rebirth of the legendary Gauntlet franchise. Fortunately, the departure of Romero didn't affect the development of the game scheduled to ship this fall.
