Background: Park Place was founded in 1989 and developed mainly sport titles. In 1993 it was named one of the biggest developers with 130 people staff. By the end of 1993 the company collapsed because publishers withdrew their contracts and payments were cut off. Several employees went to Sony Imagesoft. However, the name was used by Sony Imagesoft in several games until 1995.
