Today is a special day in the Walker home — my mother turns 50. We’re celebrating my mom’s birthday the only way we know how — by all of us being sick as hell. Fun times, to be sure.
Anyways, here’s the news:
Sony to terminate some 8,000 jobs by 2010 – Destructoid
Ubisoft learns valuable lesson, vows to never rush sequels again – GamesIndustry.biz
Gears of War 2 sells three million units – Shacknews
Electronic Arts confirms layoffs after ‘disappointing’ holiday sales – Joystiq
Despite cuts, EA will go forward with Dead Space, Mirror’s Edge sequels – Shacknews
Illinois man gets scratched disc, sues Microsoft – Destructoid
Star Wars: The Old Republic MMO to be ‘microtransaction-based”… bastards – Shacknews

Being sick absolutely sucks. I’m going back to bed.
