this decision, Book-Larsson suggested. "It would be more about being a strategic location for us than anything else. "Which is why Germany could also be a good one... I'm not sure that we're aware of what the various incentives are, so we haven't considered those." While GamersFirst has not revealed the sum paid for APB (to be relaunched in the first half of 2011 as APB: Reloaded), Book-Larsson did reveal that the game had other suitors. "There were several interested parties for sure. We happened to run into some of them too... So we know who they were. "It wasn't really a bidding war, I wouldn't say, but it was pretty clear that in order to be competitive you probably had to consider this as something you were going to invest quite a lot of effort into. And I think some people are probably more opportunistic in wanting to only pick up a piece or two."
