It seems Santa has come with unemployment as gift in the stockings. Last we heard of Factor 5 was that they were thinking of compiling Rogue Squadron. It was a compilation of the N64 and Game Cube titles, all on one Wii disc.

 There were early rumors of a 50 percent cut in staff at Factor 5. As the word goes now, the Lair and Rogue Squadron developer has also shut its doors.

More concrete information was collected by Joystiq with all those depressing stories which led to the closing.
