DirecTV DSL is just one of several money-losing operations at Hughes. And company executives have said they expect to make other moves on the company's Direcway satellite Internet business and DirecTV Latin America soon.

"When the (EchoStar-Hughes) merger agreement was terminated earlier this week, we promised our shareholders and customers that we would move quickly to strengthen the profitability and efficiency of our company," said Hughes Chief Executive Officer Jack Shaw. "This decision is the first of these moves."

A level? They call that a demo? Anyone remember the good old days when you would get half the game as shareware? I have to admit I can't wait for this one, it looks fantastic and everything I've read seems to back that up, but a single level from a single mission will hardly quench my thirst for a good game.
