Tegnap egy teljesen váratlan bejelentés után megtudtuk, hogy bezárt a Lionhead Studios, és a Press Play Studios. Ugyan borzasztóan szomorú, hogy két nagy stúdiót egyszerűen csak kidobtak, de most jó látni, hogy ha kell, össze tud fogni az ipar.
A lenti posztok nem csak együtt érző üzeneteket tartalmaznak, hanem állásajánlatot is a kaptak a munka nélkül maradt fejlesztők. A Lionhead arcait például olyan csapatok várják, mint a Sony Santa Monica. Ez azért valószínűleg elviselhető váltás lenne számukra.

Ha csak ezeknek a fele komoly ajánlat, akkor már nem kell aggódnunk a csapatért. Reméljük a legjobbakat (azt meg főleg, hogy valaki felkarolja a Fable sorozatot).
