Have you seen the latest GOW sales or LBP karting/LBP Vita sales? Certainly not on the same level as the 2 devs I mentioned.

Have you seen the latest Gears of War sales? Is that proof the franchise doesn't sell well?

Uncarted Vita sales....every IP has the black sheep lol.

1:8 Vita owners own Uncharted Golden Abyss

Approx 1:13 PS3 owners have Uncharted 2

Which one is the black sheep again?

lol ratios. Talking sales buddy. It is ok to concede once in a while. Sony ain't perfect, as much as youd like to beli3ve.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Of coruse the hire people. Microsoft have a enough money. But this is a good sign for a lot of Xbox user, they invest money in the Xbox brand great for all.



People they hate in the Internet thej have all small pe.....

How long until at the Playstation E3 we hear the host say "TV,TV,TV,TV,TV" every 5 seconds? This is getting pretty bad.

Japan Studios could learn a thing or two. Like Kresnik said, Team Ico needs to be dropped like a bad habit if they can't produce a single fucking game in a decade.


it is what i know realy hard to fire people in Japan , maybe this is a reason why they not fire people.

Bad signs while the PS4 is selling very well, just imagine if it would have been a failure, the layoffs would have been huge. Let's just hope the future games will not suffer too much from this.

Its actually more likely the ps4s success is the reason for this. They want a more streamlined 1st party with more reliance on 3rd party. Like Microsoft slid into with the 360. Less investment with greater returns.



RIP Dad 25/11/51 - 13/12/13. You will be missed but never forgotten.

I'm saying it has a great attach rate. No shit it won't sell 6M on the Vita when the Vita only has 8m console sold. You're comparisons are so biased it's hilarious.

You calling those employees fat?  

 

Seriously though.  

It is probably what needs to happen.  Last time it was SCEA, now it is SCEE's turn I guess.  

Have you ever ran a business before? 

You know I haven't.  

I didn't mean that to be condecending, but a lot of time there are inefficiencies in a company. Trimming the fat is usually the term for letting those people go. I actually just realized you were just making a joke now. Read it "are you calling those employees the fat". My bad. :-/



"We'll toss the dice however they fall,
And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

Check out MyAnimeList and my Game Collection. Owner of the 5 millionth post.

If this was MS laying off devs left and right instead Sony would make a snarky little comment like "While others are letting people go, we're still hiring making gaming a better place for Playstation owners." With some empty list of "Studios that they're laying off". Personally I hope these guys find a better place to utilize their talents.
