Shame. I've got so many fond memories of wasting hours and hours playing games by Psygnosis on my Amiga!

A statement released by the company to the games site Kotaku said: "We do regular reviews to ensure that the resources we have can create and produce high quality, innovative and commercially viable projects in an increasingly competitive market place.
Just like the PS Vita then

I hope this turns out to be a positive thing. Maybe they will re-band as another outfit and go on to create multi-platform games.
