Background
Telstar Electronic Studios was a video game division of Telstar Records, based in Surrey, UK, launched in 1993. Initially, it was called "Telstar Fun and Games", and re-issued titles in budget form and reduced price game packs. Telstar then soon entered the full publishing business, working with smaller, little-known developers. Unfortunately, many of their games sold poorly, leading the company into debts of £10,000,000. In 1999, Telstar signed a deal with Take-Two Interactive, which included a total dissolution and absorption into the latter.
