San Francisco-based developer Shaba Games is no more, according to a pair of Kotaku tipsters who wished to remain anonymous. The developer of Spider-man: Web of Shadows is said to have been shuttered by parent company Activision today.
Sources claiming to have knowledge of the situation estimate that some 30 employees were laid off earlier today, with one of those tipsters theorizing that sluggish performance of Activision's Guitar Hero 5 was to blame. Shaba was responsible for the previously mentioned Spider-man game, ports of the Tony Hawk series and Shrek Super Slam, all for Activision.
