BBC News is reporting that the UK game developer, Rage Software, will be closing down with 77 jobs lost. Here's a clipping:

The software company that makes the David Beckham Soccer Game has collapsed, with the loss of 77 jobs.
Receivers have been appointed by Liverpool-based computer game firm Rage Software, ending hopes that a rescue package could be put together.
The Liverpool-based firm is now likely to be broken up, and any new games it is working on sold off.
The future of the remaining 85 staff will depend on the sale of the intellectual property rights of games currently in development.
