Grin's Not Smiling Anymore

So another big games developer has gone down the swannie due to monetary problems, but this time the developer is quite well known and have produced a few triple A titles and fairly recently aswell.

The developer in question is Swedish based GRIN. The developers behind the good besides the story Bionic Commando and the great concept poor execution Wanted Weapons Of Fate. So this is not a bad developer at all but I think they definately suffered from too much work for one development studio at once. All the GRIN games came out in one big clump so they all suffered.

This is why developers like Bungie and Infinity Ward have the most successful games, because they start with a great concept and devote all their efforts to that one concept. I think GRIN could have done with this attitude to succeed. Hopefully the trend of losing talented developers doesn't continue.
