Sony are firing 8000 employees. That's a lot. Some cuts are bound to be made somewhere in the games division, but one area that won't be seeing them is Sony Computer Entertainment Europe.

SCEE boss David Reeves has told Dutch TV station RTL "We're certainly not planning to cut back in personnel at all. Half of our personnel are in the development of the games, that's an investment. We're not scaling down at all".

Fairly definitive. Then again, David Reeves is often either a habitual liar or habitually uninformed when it comes to company-wide statements, so take that with a grain of salt.
