Rare -> NXE avatars etc. Also seems to be a flexible studio but due to past performance I can see them pruned back a bit.
Turn 10 -> Forza is a significant series because not only does it sell games, it also sells peripherals like racing wheels which are extremely profitable. Also important as they are about the only racing developer even close to Polyphony, a good counter balance to GT. They also live in Redmond, and its harder to fire people you see every day now is it?
Lionhead Studios -> Their games always sell well, and theres always the chance that ol' Pete is gonna pull some brilliant sunshine out of his butt. Possible game changer, and the current sales of over 2M should see them through.
Wingnut -> Collaboration with Peter Jackson, cheap development costs (New Zealand) and producing their landmark series, will not be touched.
Tease.
