It's not only Zynga feeling the pinch in the gaming world these days. GREE, the $1.8 billion Japanese mobile gaming giant, is downsizing operations once again, this time with a focus on Europe. TechCrunch has learned that the company is shutting down operations in the region, which are primarily based in the UK. Lynn Daniel, business development director for GREE in the UK, confirmed the closure of the UK operations in an email -- the full statement is below -- noting that the company is consolidating its Western-focused operations in its offices in the U.S.. We're still trying to see how many people exactly this will affect in the UK and what happens in the rest of the region.
