Didn't they at one point do some sort of "and this week in sc2" type of news deal? I could have sworn that they did. | ||

And other than that the SF team didn't produce enough to justify their existence imo. | ||

Sony used to have the same video game go through development at two different offices on opposite sides of the country. Which ever development team could produce a sellable game the quickest got to keep their job. And Sony would fire the entire second development team. Then if you wanted to stay with sony you would have to reapply and hope someone lets the hiring staff know you were a good worked even though you got laid off. | ||

The title makes it sound alarming when its not really even that significant of a change. Whether people realize it (read: are willing to admit it) or not, this fear mongering (yes, including some of the sarcasm) actually turns folks off. You guys should know better by now. Edit: You're killin' me Smalls! That's how I read it as well. It was a relocation request and people decided to resign. edit: eh, then the article goes on with updates saying more people laid off. Who knows. | ||

"OnGamers lays off Blizzard source" | ||

They had such great chemistry. There are no "underrated" casters at this point of Star Craft. Each of these well known casters has got exactly the popularity he deserves. | ||

I love Cody (and Rod) but ongamers really needs to be a bit more careful with their stories (as do TL with the titles of their community news).
