The rumor mill is buzzing today with word that S.T.A.L.K.E.R. developer GSC Game World is shutting down. The folks at Rock-Paper-Shotgun are following the story:
According to this report from Ukrainian news site UkraNews, GSC has been shut down by owner Sergei Grigorovich. The closure was apparently announced to the workforce earlier today.

Free Santa Sam Skin in Latest Serious Sam 3: BFE Update
Croteam and Devolver Digital are getting into the holiday spirit by gifting a free Santa Sam multiplayer character skin along with the latest update to Serious Sam 3: BFE! Both naughty and nice gamers can simply update their copy of Serious Sam 3: BFE and watch Santa Sam slide down the internet's chimney and roll right into the total madness of 16-player co-op and multiplayer versus modes!
"We've been incredibly pleased by the positive reception from gamers with the release of Serious Sam 3: BFE on PC," said Davor Hunski, Chief Creative Guy at Croteam. "To celebrate, we wanted to give our fans a little holiday gift and thank them for being so supportive of Croteam and the Serious Sam series for all these years."
While the free multiplayer character is seen as a nice gesture by most gamers, not everyone is pleased with the free update to Serious Sam 3: BFE. "Giving away this sweet, sweet premium content for free really puts a damper on my holiday cheer," said Fork Parker, Devolver Digital CFO. "Looks like I'll have to tell the orphanage I can't buy them bicycles, candy, and handguns again this year. They'll be ever so disappointed."
Serious Sam 3: BFE is available now on PC for under $40 and makes the perfect holiday gift and stocking stuffer for that someone in your life that loves violent, over-the-top action.

The survey found that a lack of familiarity with the profession is a significant barrier to getting American teenagers to pursue engineering careers. Yet, exposure to any facts about engineering, including the breadth of what engineers actually do and, specifically, how much money they earn, leads more than half of teens to say they are more likely to consider engineering as a career.
