Midway Files for Bankruptcy Protection

Link: http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-midway13-2009feb13,0,4781703.story

Down but not out, Midway Games filed for Chapter 11 protection which allows them to re-organize and gives them some breathing room from their creditors. The filing follows the successful release of its game Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe, which sold about 2 million copies.

Why Down but not Out? That's because it's a Chapter 11 and creditors know that they will get pennies to the dollar if they force a Chapter 7 liquidation. The company is worth more to them alive and kicking (or at least crawling painfully). So I'm sure we shall see more games out of Midway yet.
