Cuts at PopCap, THQ, and Funcom

As noted on Kotaku, tweets like this one point to layoffs at EA-owned PopCap Studios, which PopCap confirms and explains. On VG247 they have details from an email purportedly from THQ saying 20 marketing and production jobs are being cut. Finally, Polygon has word of cuts at Funcom, saying the developer of The Secret World confirmed the layoffs, but would not comment on reports that this impacted about half their staff.
