It's pretty strange to hear that kind of stuff, especially when other reports say profit from the games industry are getting higher and higher.. but there sure has been a lot of developers going belly up recently too..
That article that came from the GDC 'Ten Reasons You Don't Want to Run a Massively Multiplayer Online Game' sure wasn't very encouraging.. [:)] http://gamespy.com/gdc2003/top10mmog .. *looking forward to E3*
