    More HMX layoffs

    I'm deeply saddened for anyone at HMX who may have lost their job today. You guys have all worked exceptionally hard for my pleasure and I appreciate everything you guys have done.

    Also, Meatloaf - Paradise by the Dashboard Light this friday.

    That's a bummer to hear , job hunting is not a friendly thing right now

    Good luck to all who are affected, may something come your way quickly.

    Here come the comments like: "Well maybe if they put out good DLC, it would have sold more and they wouldn't have laid them off! And now Meatloaf? WTF do they just want to keep losing money?!"

    Music games are going through hard times and the adverage casual player only buys at most 10 songs. I wonder how the GH brand is doing...

    Those arguments would be false, because RB3 dlc has been selling pretty well. Just look at Billy Joel and Linkin Park sales.

    And Meatloaf is pretty ***********************. I hope we get Bat out of Hell too.

    Sucks about layoffs.

    I know they would be false, but they will still be made...

    Also, I never expanded much off of Meatloaf's (I Wont Do That) song, so I'l preview them and see what happens.

    Bold prediction: There will be complaints about more old music.

    If we're only getting one song by Meatloaf, maybe there will be some singles this week. And Meatloaf should have been on disc.

    Boo Layoffs, Yay Meatloaf. And anyone who thinks no one wants that song has obviously never been to a karaoke bar with their SO.
    Does anyone chart anymore? le sigh.

    Layoffs suck! Alesia is still looking for a job, 13 months after getting laid off. I was lucky enough to find another position the week I was let go, so other than a HUGE pay cut, I am still working. For everyone laid off, good luck!

    Now, tying this in with the good news about Meat Loaf is awful, I don't want to be cheerful in the hopes that it is true and in the hopes that we get the entire Bat Out of Hell album... Jim Steinman is pure win!... so I will just say... excited and saddened at the same time.
    Pushing 50 and still rockin' like a teen, only now I can afford it and it takes longer to recover.
