The studio was acquired by and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of [[Activision]] in January 2005.

== Studio history ==
The studio was founded by brothers Karthik and Guha Bala in 1991 while they were in high school.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.polygon.com/2016/4/5/11370024/vicarious-visions-founders-leave-karthik-guha-bala|title=Vicarious Visions co-founders move on after 25 years|first=Allegra|last=Frank|work=[[Polygon (website)|Polygon]]|date=April 5, 2016|access-date=May 26, 2021|archive-date=November 8, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201108115530/http://www.polygon.com/2016/4/5/11370024/vicarious-visions-founders-leave-karthik-guha-bala|url-status=live}}</ref> In the late 1990s, Vicarious Visions appointed Michael Marvin, an Albany-based investor and entrepreneur, and founder and former CEO of [[MapInfo Corporation]]; and Charles S. Jones, investor, who sat on the boards of various software and industrial companies including Geac and [[MRO Software|PSDI]], to its board of directors. Under their leadership, a sale of the company was negotiated to [[Activision]], earning the original investors over 20x their initial investment.{{citation needed|date=August 2020}} In January 2005, Vicarious Visions was acquired by publisher Activision. In June 2007, Activision closed the Vicarious Visions' office in [[Mountain View, California]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=14236|title=Exclusive: Activision Closes Vicarious Visions' CA Office|first=Alex|last=Handy|work=[[Gamasutra]]|date=June 7, 2007|access-date=January 27, 2021|archive-date=February 1, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210201155223/https://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=14236|url-status=live}}</ref> On April 5, 2016, the Bala brothers announced that they had left the company.<ref>{{cite magazine|url=http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2016/04/05/vicarious-visions-co-founder-brothers-depart-after-25-years.aspx?|title=Vicarious Visions Co-Founder Brothers Depart After 25 Years|first=Mike|last=Futter|magazine=[[Game Informer]]|date=April 5, 2016|access-date=April 5, 2016|archive-date=April 8, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160408062942/http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2016/04/05/vicarious-visions-co-founder-brothers-depart-after-25-years.aspx|url-status=live}}</ref> The brothers then founded [[Velan Studios]] in November 2016.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.mcvuk.com/development-news/bala-brothers-found-velan-studios/|title=Bala brothers found Velan studios|work=[[Market for Computer & Video Games]]|date=November 21, 2016|accessdate=June 4, 2021|archive-date=June 14, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210614145126/https://www.mcvuk.com/development-news/bala-brothers-found-velan-studios/|url-status=live}}</ref>

I noticed that you started the article [[Razak Khan]]. Unfortunately, It is not much more than a filmography. Without any personal details this article is likely to be removed. To make it worse: unreferenced articles about living people will '''always be removed'''. You article is unreferenced, as external links don't count as references. So, please, can you fix those two point to save your article? Thanks in advance! [[User:The Banner|The Banner]] [[User talk:The Banner|talk]] 22:31, 30 September 2013 (UTC)

I removed {{tl|db-a7}} because the statement that "Walker will be participating in the 2014 United States Olympic Curling Trials, as selected by the national High Performance Program" is enough to escape A7. Granted, this article will almost certainly die if you nominate it for deletion through [[WP:Articles for deletion]] unless it is significantly improved, but it doesn't qualify for A7. You may also [[WP:PROD|propose]] the article for deletion. Please re-read [[WP:Criteria for speedy deletion#A7]] before adding it to more articles.

Like Jessica I don't understand your tag. What gives you the right to tag a page created in good faith to be deleted? I have included numerous references, both from the publisher and other sources in relation to their convergence event. I worked very hard to create this page that involves a very important event that DC Comics is in the middle of announcing this month. Let me clear, if you succeed in getting this deleted, I will merely post it again. Stop causing problems. I am no spring chicken on wikipedia, I have created numerous comics related pages in the past.
*{{Ping|Tangaroa007}}, Thanks for leaving me a message. If you're not a spring chicken on wikipedia you should know how to add references to a page? I have tagged the page for cleanup not for deletion. You should clean the template for errors & then remove tags. If you do not comply the basic editorial guidelines i'll send this page to PROD. Do clean it up or else it wont stay here. P.s: Not an old chicken terry, try to sign your talk's. --[[User:Loveoffood007|Loveoffood007]] ([[User talk:Loveoffood007#top|talk]]) 10:03, 30 November 2014 (UTC)

Wow angry much? The wider wikipedia community always corrects this for me. Feel free to edit these in if you like but there's no need to be so acrimonious. Wikipedia does not belong to you alone. We are a community. Besides the addition of the specific references is the only thing I don't know how to do. Others have always graciously fixed this for me. As you can see I have added references on the page (and some directly from the publisher). Next time it might be more prudent for you to contact me directly rather than tagging the page. I can see from this page that you do this often. Perhaps , with respect you should reconsider how you approach people, because clearly you made me a little mad. And perhaps I should also keep this in mind too. My apologies for any offence. — Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Tangaroa007|Tangaroa007]] ([[User talk:Tangaroa007|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Tangaroa007|contribs]]) 09:57, 1 December 2014 (UTC) 

* Greetings, {{Ping|Tangaroa007}}, you should learn why do we have "Tags" invented if we have had to contact editors to fix updates. You are missing the core ideology of Tags. Adding clean up tag on your page meant, someone of the larger community should come up and fix this for you.

== Re: tagging M JO for speedy deletion ==

This page should not be speedily deleted because it provides information about a Taiwanese celebrity fashion line. Since a company, organization, or product can be an article's subject (for example, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Jessica_Simpson_Collection and other fashion labels), I believe this page qualifies as informative. I have removed information that could be deemed promotional and stuck to factual information, but I welcome other suggestions. --[[User:Wang0473|0473]] ([[User talk:Wang0473|talk]]) 07:51, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Do use these [http://www.usatoday.com/story/life/2014/11/03/dc-comics-convergence-exclusive/18249201/ 1],[http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/11/03/dc-comics-announces-convergence-is-their-next-major-event-in-2015 2],[http://www.wired.com/2014/11/dc-comics-convergence/ 3]. For references please use the reference template. Thanks. --[[User:Loveoffood007|Loveoffood007]] ([[User talk:Loveoffood007#top|talk]]) 10:10, 30 November 2014 (UTC)

Wow angry much? The wider wikipedia community always corrects this for me. Feel free to edit these in if you like but there's no need to be so acrimonious. Wikipedia does not belong to you alone. We are a community. Besides the addition of the specific references is the only thing I don't know how to do. Others have always graciously fixed this for me. As you can see I have added references on the page (and some directly from the publisher). Next time it might be more prudent for you to contact me directly rather than tagging the page. I can see from this page that you do this often. Perhaps , with respect you should reconsider how you approach people, because clearly you made me a little mad. And perhaps I should also keep this in mind too. My apologies for any offence. — Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Tangaroa007|Tangaroa007]] ([[User talk:Tangaroa007|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Tangaroa007|contribs]]) 09:57, 1 December 2014 (UTC) 

* Greetings, {{Ping|Tangaroa007}}, you should learn why do we have "Tags" invented if we have had to contact editors to fix updates. You are missing the core ideology of Tags. Adding clean up tag on your page meant, someone of the larger community should come up and fix this for you. Was that really an offence? --[[User:Loveoffood007|Loveoffood007]] ([[User talk:Loveoffood007#top|talk]]) 14:18, 1 December 2014 (UTC)

== Speedy deletion declined: [[:Eric Meng]] ==
Hello Loveoffood007. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of [[:Eric Meng]], a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: '''The article makes a credible assertion of importance or significance, sufficient to pass A7.''' Thank you. §[[User:FreeRangeFrog|FreeRangeFrog]][[User talk:FreeRangeFrog|croak]] 18:53, 3 December 2014 (UTC)

== Re: tagging M JO for speedy deletion ==

This page should not be speedily deleted because it provides information about a Taiwanese celebrity fashion line. Since a company, organization, or product can be an article's subject (for example, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Jessica_Simpson_Collection and other fashion labels), I believe this page qualifies as informative. I have removed information that could be deemed promotional and stuck to factual information, but I welcome other suggestions. --[[User:Wang0473|0473]] ([[User talk:Wang0473|talk]]) 07:51, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

* I have removed speedy delete tag, thanks for improving it. Try to add more notable references. Thanks. --[[User:Loveoffood007|Loveoffood007]] ([[User talk:Loveoffood007#top|talk]]) 07:53, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

== Deletion of 2deadbeatz ==

Hi Loveoffood007,

I received your message regarding marking the page [[2deadbeatz]] for deletion. I am curious about the reasoning behind its deletion so I can avoid future cases as this.

Thank you. — Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Modul8ted|Modul8ted]] ([[User talk:Modul8ted|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Modul8ted|contribs]]) 21:18, 9 December 2014 (UTC) 

- Nevermind, I've answered my own question. Subject is not one of considerable importance, which would explain why I cannot find any sources on the matter. It also seems like the duo has ceased further works. Thanks, learned something new.
