LOL. So all this talk about how Sony is in so much trouble and how they will have to close down studios to save money, and it turns out Microsoft are the ones closing down studios and shrinking their gaming division. LOL.

Yeah, totally funny. Especially the $2 odd billion sony is forecasting they're gonna lose this year. Maybe sony needs to take a hint.

Everyone is in trouble at the moment. Microsoft is being clever and getting rid of the studios sooner then later. its not like microsoft has any talented devs. what they are going to do is asign the ips to 3rd parties to develop. ala EPIC GAMES

Nobody's perfect. I aint nobody!!!

Killzone 2. its not a fps. it a FIRST PERSON WAR SIMULATOR!!!! ..The true PLAYSTATION 3 launch date and market dominations is SEP 1st
