Sony has announced plans to cut 8,000 electronics jobs - 5% of the division - as well as shutting 10% of its manufacturing sites.

The company said the jobs would be cut by April 2010, but did not say in which countries the staff would go.

Wonder if many of the casualties will be development staff in their game studios.
