If Sony will cut in the game division, it will probably be selling game studio's first.
No way in hell they'll drop SCE, it has been too successfull in the past to just drop after two years. And PSP is doing fine. It would be very ironical if Sony were the one to cut its console business to go handheld only. Not that I expect that btw.
But first party software support could be dwindling fast, as already seen by the scrapping of Eight Days and The Getaway 3.

It's hard to speculate on what they would cut.

If I had to guess, I'd say they'd rather cut their music publishing and phone business than their gaming business. The question is if cutting those two off would be enough (along with cost savings in every division).

Things are eerily silent from Sony's execs lately, with no significant announcements since the last quarter ended (well except for the raising of prices in the UK). It's the calm before the storm. Actually it's not just Sony, I guess businesses want to keep the masses' morale up as much as possible for maximum holiday sales. Until next year, it's business as usual as far as possible, so get out these wallets and spend! :P
