The 2 cofounders of the company are fired by IW, Activision locks down the offices, employees claiming Activision has not paid any royalties to IW for the $1 billion they pulled in for Modern Warfare 2, IW's contract is about to expire and they may have been in talks to publish the series with another publisher.
Shit's gone bananas.

What apeshit bug has bitten Kotick's ass? And this after he states in DICE he is just "misunderstood" rather than a dickhead.
If it goes to another publisher then won't the game become much much better? I keep hearing talk that Activision wants to milk it.
EDIT:
wait wait I may have misunderstood disregard it if it involves IW losing control.
Game got old at cod3

The game was already old, and people need to stop making WWII games.
Shit like this makes me want to never work for, with, or around Activision on anything.

Cod 3 was pretty bad, but I really like Cod 4 and Modern Warfare 2. World at War wasn't nearly the bad game people made it out to be either.

I have no problem with ww2 games as long as they're done well.
I can agree with the not wanting to work with Activision statement though.

Agreed, shit's my favorite game in the series.
I had that weird glitch in WaW where things would speed up at random intervals. That was annoying, especially during the sniper mission, when the general turned into a fucking Olympic sprinter.
Plus the tank mission gave you a flamethrower. Pretty neat, but i didn't think it was as useful as the auto-firing MG in the previous games. At least it was one less thing to worry about.
But still, fucking EA.
Please pardon the phrase, but Kotick is a gigantic fag. At least he leaves Blizzard alone (for now).
