If you've got an extra few million bucks lying around, we can think of a couple of video game development studios that could
really use it. According to
a recent report from Guardian.uk,
Midway's Newcastle and San Diego studios are facing closure if they can't find buyers by the end of June. For those whose extended
WoW sessions have left them chronologically unaware, that's just two weeks from today.
The Guardian's article focuses on the Newcastle studio -- creators of the recently released Diesel-fest
Wheelman -- which is trying to stave off death by finding investors for its unannounced open-world action game. We're far from financial experts, but perhaps keeping said project under wraps isn't the best way to attract suitors in such a brief timeframe. Just, you know,
a suggestion.
