EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.
EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.
Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.
This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.
SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space
Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

There's a lot to look forward to from Japanese developers in the next year or so... There's no doubt there. I'm really excited about Xillia in particular since it's really close to coming out here. That'll quell my RPG needs for a good while I'm sure.
Proprietary engines and the illogical desire to westernize destroyed them for a while, and did almost cause a collapse. But I knew it wouldn't, they would recover and now with them finally building their own engines and pulling internal again with their development.
Glad to see them on the recovery now, as someone who prefers Japanese games by far, this has been a slightly depressing console gen, but there was enough to be really good.
Bring on the JRPGs
Nintendo and Sony consoles have been very kind to Japanese RPG developers. Atlus, Intelligent Games, and Monolith Soft have released stellar, solid selling titles for their respective systems.
I think the japanese developers finally got their grips with the PS3's hardware, and now we're getting great JRPGs, except they don't get localized -_-
