EA HAS SHUT DOWN Maxis Emeryville! SIMS??!?

The news broke to sims, simcity fans today that one of 2 maxis studios has been shut down by Electronic Arts. This studio has made sims games and simcity games. One of the laid off employees tweeted "Thats the last simcity disaster we will design" With a pic of what looks like a cardboard tower. From the forums and twitter it looks like the end for sims FOREVER. BUT! There is one studio remaining and this one has all simgurus! Electronic Arts said that this doesn't effect the sims 4 as Maxis Emeryville's last sims game was the sims 2. What does this mean as a simmer? Well, simcity 2013 had a AWFUL launch, The sims 4 had a bad launch as well. Simcity is now no longer funded it appears. So, this may mean that the sims 4 has 2 YEARS to turn around. Simcity is still running online, its fate is unknown EA must give a 30 day notice if they end online. As a long time simmer I hope that this does not happen to sims maxis. Good night and happy simming!
