Usually you don't see software companies making that sort of investment in facilities. To be honest, the decentralized structure most developers use - remote employees / contractors - is what works best, so this looks risky to me.

Sound like they got some funding. This is great to hear. Maybe we will get some unique PSX era titles from this new gen.

E3 can't get here quick enough. Hopefully Deep Down gets more of a reveal.

The large successful ones do.

What's the metric for determining if it "works best"? Anyways, this could be a good sign that they are starting to value retaining employees more than the ease of getting rid of employees that being contractor based brings.
