That's almost certainly the case with London since they're Sony's casual games studio. Evolution/Liverpool are a racing game studio, so i'm not sure about them. They could've been making some Move based racing title.

Sony cancel a number of games across UK studios

It's obvious, they cancelled Amphibian Racing: Snow Storm.-Amon- said:
It was a move game. One move controller as a joystick for amphibian vechiele and the other move is controlling the light on the outer part of the amphibian vehicle so you can indicate whether or not you want to turn before you actually turn.
Everything is according to the rules of motor operations on the fictional planet of Schlognsanvaltorf. You are scored based on correctly following the street rules and speed.
Reason for cancellation was technical issues with getting split-screen to work (interpreting 2x2 Move controllers.)

heh, pretty much this/cjelly said:
some of these UK studios are very useful in terms of innovation and tech tools for the rest of Sony developers and 3rd parties. Things like eyetoy, move etc.
Maybe Sony just think there is enough support on PS3 now, they've had deliberately heavy focus on it to gain momentum but now they can let off the gas a little. Then move the innovation teams onto NGP and maybe even early dev tools etc for PS4?
real shame about evo studios if true though, shitty timing with a big Sony release from them barely even out in stores.

Ugh, that's not nice. Best of luck to people being let go, and as far as remaining studios are concerned, hopefully the changes turn out being for the better in the long run.
