OMG. Fox Business news is reporting that ANET has suspended development on GW2.

The article states that the investors have pulled out of backing GW2 because of continuing problems in acquiring gamers in China and Korea due to the domination of World of Warcraft. The article also points to a tightening of investment capital and the lack of revenue from the financial model for GW to produce enough revenue until GW2 is release.
