Probably the continuous drain of our almighty economy!
I still dont think it has fully recovered like we are meant to believe, cause if it did, gas prices would drop. Its draining alot of the less dominate business' and you are right Sped, this will open more revenues for the stronger business' like Sony and EA! It seems the bigger companies are getting power hungry too!
Although this does relate to PS2 games/development, this is a bit off topic and should probably be moved to Off Topic "General gaming". <---edit, nm.
