Yep. There were probably tech guys who said you shouldn't do it, but the tech guys that said you can probably got the promotions.

It kills me a little inside to know this is probably 100% correct.

It's actually very unlikely. What is likely is that all the tech guys will be laid off because SimCity didn't meet financial expectations.

This isn't a bad thing. EA should fire all it's developers, designers, sales people, management, liquidate its assets and distribute the proceeds to its shareholders, and quietly go out of business.

Really, the tech guys that got laid off will almost certainly go to find better jobs. Almost by definition, since they won't be making games at EA anymore.
