I'm holding back on some scathing anti-Sony comments.  I probably wouldn't be a good person to write this story :)

Already got a thread going here.

I'm surprised they lasted this long under Sony's malevolent umbrella. Part of me hopes they all quit in protest and re-found an independent software house, but the realities of the economy make that unlikely...

I didn't think I was posting on the front page when I posted this, I just saw a news section when I logged in and assumed it was a clearing house for potential wannabe news stories.  Whoops.

High quality electronics?
I know you can't be talking about the PS3, because the only reason Sony gets away with the shoddy quality of that pile of junk is that the 360 is even worse.

No, I think it's completely fair to lay the blame at the feet of one of the most laughably mismanaged companies since Commodore.

I liked them, they made some awesome games for the Amiga and seemed to be the only ones that pushed the CD32 to its limits
