Activision has released an official statement on the future of the British team Bizarre Creations, developer of the acclaimed Project Gotham Racing, saying that "over the past three years since our purchase of Bizarre Creations, the world of racing game has changed significantly . While we have made significant investments to create new alternatives, such as Blur, there was the expected commercial success. Bizarre is a group of talented developers, but the economic factors that are influencing the market led us to evaluate various possible options regarding the future of the study, including a potential sale. "

The statement comes after the recent series of rumors and tweet about it, in which among many other sources have alluded to the possible dismissal of 200 developers Bizarre. Always Activision recently announced that 88 members of his staff of quality control in California will be issued, and that the study of development Budcat (author of Music Guitar Hero) was closed, and when possible, the employees will be allocated to other business structures or will be involved as consultants.

Hopefully everything can be resolved for the better, and these guys can come back soon to give us great new titles.
