What a load of bull. Prototype 1 did perfectly well (2+ million sales is really decent for a new IP)
Prototype 2 suffered from sequel-itus that seems to attack most series, but it hasn't really been out that long and was already pushing 1 million, so could easily have reached 1.5m, which is decent.
Why shut them though? Why not give them the something else to do? The Crash Bandicoot IP is just sitting there, and although I wasn't a massive fan of Radical's direction with the series - at least they had a direction which was a decent commercial success. Why not just let them develop a new IP?
Uff. Even turning them into another Call of Duty studio would have saved a few jobs. Really nice move Activision.
edit: Oh and I think they did an awesome job with Simpsons Hit & Run as well. They were clearly a talent studio. Bleh.
