Sony Closes Zipper Interactive! Sony's Trend of Misfortune continues.

Zipper Interactive, a game production company that was under Sony's control and developed such titles as Mag, Socom and recently Unit 13 has been closed down. This is a striking blow to many gamers. i am personally upset because i have played the Socom titles and Unit 13.Zipper was founded  in 1995 and was the latest victim in a series of layoffs Sony has going. Previously before Zipper, Sony had to close BigBig studio's Which was the developers of MotorStorm: Arctic Edge on psp and Little Deviants for the Vita. Sony's other victims include layoffs to Sony Online Entertainment, Structural changes in Sony Computer Ent. Cambridge, which is currently working on the Psvita Killzone title and Structural Changes to Wipeout Creators, Studio Liverpool. Zipper’s Twitter feed confirmed the news as well, with a message stating: “After 17 years it’s time to head off into the sunset. A sincere thank you to all our fans for everything you’ve done for us. Farewell.” We hope everyone that was employed at the studio manages to move on with their lives.
