    Really sad to see them go, I have a few friends there and met Philip Oliver at a talk in Leamington just a few weeks ago.

    Codemasters have also offered to help out, as they have a site near Leamington.

    Will they make all of their games orientated toward Americans and dumb down the handling and difficulty?

    OK so that was too easy :naughty:

    another uk developer dies, the curse of the app games continues. :waah: Funny codies offering to help out after making at least 150 people redundant earlier this year.

    Casual and lazy xenophobia everywhere these days unfortunately.

    Shame about the company, Dizzy was one of the greatest series of games ever made - a style I would have thought perfect for tablets and phones...
