June:

Management Buy-Out/Closure of Chemistry (Kuju)
Deadline Games (Watchman Game) files for bankruptcy
Crystal Dynamics cuts 25 more people
Midway San Diego and Newcastle face closure by end of June.
America's Army studio closes
Rockstar lays of 10% of New England staff
ZeniMax (owner of Bethsoft) acquires id Software

There's nothing sad or negative about that acquisition. Bethesda became a stronger publisher and id will get more resources and the attention their games deserves.
