Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Interesting thing pointed out by GAF-favorite Jason Schreier. Take Two's CEO directly contradicts the memos sent to Roll 7 Studios about shutting down by saying that they haven't shuttered anything.







Zelnick's direct quote to IGN today:

Didn't shutter YET

PR jumped in pretty quick when the interviewer tried to ask more about it.

When Zelnick was asked if he was denying the reports, a Take-Two PR reportedly stepped in and said: “What we’ve said is, in the 8-K filing that we put out, we talked about the cost reduction plan is approximately 5% reduction in headcount worldwide, but we did not give a label-by-label breakdown of what that looks like.”

Asked again to clarify whether the studios still existed, IGN’s reporter was told by the PR: “We have not provided any additional color beyond what I just said.”
