Eurocom, mostly responsible for porting games to console, finally had to closed their doors. I, for one, and rather sad to see them go.

A lot of their Bond games weren't the best, but it is sad to see them go.

That's roundabout 200 programmers who lost their jobs over the last few months. They were in a unique position too; they mostly ported code and did promotionals, so this is really indicitive of a much larger problem.

It isn't every day you hear about someplace so firmly established fizzling away like this. Love 'em or hate 'em, 25 years mashing binary isn't something to scoff at.
