Dave Jones, Founder and Owner of Realtime Worlds Selling His Cars?

It may be nothing, it might not even be the Dave Jones of Realtime Worlds, but it all seems very fitting after Realtime Worlds went into administration with the loss of 150 jobs.

The staff has recieved two days pay, and nothing more.
Could Dave be raising funds to buy MyWorld? Or is he selling the cars to pay his staff?

We’ll leave the speculation to you.

The cars  listed on Pistonheads:

Furthermore, we do frequently keep ourselves updated on most things gaming and it’s industry, so we remembered  a quote from the wife of Luke Halliwell, ex-developer at Realtime Worlds stated on his personal blog:

“Moreover these very people have enough personal wealth to pay the money owed to the individuals and families whose lives they have left shattered, heck Dave could probably pay them all just by selling one of his beloved cars.”

Interesting.

So, a coincidence, or is Realtime Worlds founder and owner Dave Jones indeed selling his cars to raise funds for his ex-staff. Or yet again, to fund a MyWorld buy?

Feed The Gamer wishes nothing but the very best for the staff of Realtime Worlds.

    95k pounds and 35k pound = 130k pounds. doubt that would pay all the staff, and probably not a pittance of what it would cost to buy Myworld.

    plus jones probably has millions in his checking account just from GTA alone.
