Each studio will continue to have their own "internal concepting group" to think up "new opportunities and new IPs." Perhaps their next game will feature futuristic hovering ... off-road monster trucks. Wait a sec. That sounds incredibly awesome.

As long as they get to keep their own concepting groups, then this is a great idea.
Any news on what the new name of the studio is going to be called or are they still using the old studio names?

This means they have downsized then? With merging they will surely loose some staff.
This is concerning seeing as i'm about to embark on a 4 year course at LJMU and was hoping to get a job in a local studio when i finish, i just hope the other studios in the area don't decide to follow suit.

That's never the way it works though, management always work together, managers will have been moved to other roles around the business and the departments with the highest number of employee's will be the ones hit with voluntary redundancies.
I feel bad for anyone job hunting in these times, i'm kinda relieved that i'm taking a 4 year skive, just hope everything's fixed when i'm ready for employment again lol.

ugh.. dont remind me bart-o.. i graduated.. well.. umm.. i finished school in september and still cant find an internship.. i went for an interview in november at a post production studio and they told me to come back in january because the owner didnt want to take in new interns at the moment.. ok january came and i waited that long only to find out that "business is going bad and we had to lay off some people".. im so depressed right now.. im turning agoraphobic.. and my worst nigihtmare of becoming a nyc subway dweller (aka bum) is slowly coming true.

hmmm interesting .. hovering Monster trucks LOL .. that would be funny too see but it just wouldn't work out that well for concept. it would be nice too see a wipeout track on Motorstorm or a motorstorm track on the wipeout game.

OMG Motorstorm 3 running at 60fps full 1080p with vehicles that go 100+ mph ::Drool:: . Or Wipeout HD with Motorstorm's insane physics and destructible environments. This could be awesome!

They should make a new Twisted Metal game!! Twisted Metal of the Future, where no vehicle uses wheels!

I'm a big Wipeout fan going back to the original, but I think the Motorstorm guys have the edge in fun gameplay AND technology right now so hopefully that can spread to future wipeout games. I don't think Motorstorm can take anything useful from wipeout (or it's devs) though. Wipeout could seriously do with some more open thinking in the level design (ala motorstorm) to freshen it up!
