Midway Chicago Cuts Overstated, Says Boon, Next MK Coming >
2008/11/18 18:01:27: Posted by DM
Last week, Midway announced cuts at the Chicago studio, following a financial third quarter loss. The layoffs came after the completion of Blitz: The League II and Mortal Kombat Vs. DC Universe. Midway claims trimming staff after big projects is s.o.p. (standard operating procedure), though. Ed Boon spoke with Gamedaily today and stated that the layoffs and Midway's troubles are being overstated, and his team is in very good shape after the purge.

"The statement that Midway let go a substantial portion of the people who worked on this game is completely false. I think I would know," asserted Boon. "Our team is intact and we're already discussing the next game and what we want to do. Mortal Kombat is on pretty solid footing. Right now we're looking at how this game performs and I think it will have a good amount to do with what features we put in the next game."
