I made a list of accumulated sales per developer for Sony this generation about a year ago.
Zipper were at the bottom of that list.
They've completely failed in the past 5 years to release anything significant to the market, despite having a very large development team (near 200 employees at one point I believe). They've completely, and utterly, underperformed as a studio and probably cost Sony millions to keep running. For the sake of SCE worldwide studios and the provision of funding, I think this move had to be made.
