Activision CEO Is A "Carpetbagger"
- Thread starter Andy Chalk
- Start date
No one's expecting a CEO to take a vow of poverty, but there's "getting rich by building a good company" and there's "getting rich by strip-mining the place and pissing off all your customers". The former means that there's a chance there'll be a company still there after he leaves, the latter, not so much.Hankage said:

I've learned my lesson: NEVER AGAIN BUY A FREAKING TREYARCH COD GAME. I was only mildly intrested in it, even after being in the beta, but I now know that it is not worth giving Activision and Treyarch my $60 so they can go out and make even useless, copy-cat sequels.
Hey. As long as when I wake up tomorrow, there are still aging white guys making too much money by taking advantage of people who like things they don't care about and barely understand. Because the day that stops being the case, we're all going to have to stock up on the canned goods and seal the door to the vault.Anton P. Nym said:
The status-quo may not be pretty, but it beats the certainly hideous unknown. That's why change is always wrong.
Vote Republican!
No way a CEO wringing money out of products his company produces without really caring about his customers? Are we supposed to be surprised?
***** all you want its not going to change anything because people will still be buying thier games.

Carpetbagger fits perfectly especially being a Southerner the only thing worse then that is ethnic slurs even then just barely.
Pretty sure it was a northerner that moved to the south right after the civil war to take jobs of those who were crippled/dead.ElephantGuts said:
Also he's a Douchebag what happened to Brutal Legend? GHOSTBUSTERS? C'mon that looked awesome!
Yeah I love how nobody blames the Blizzard half of Activision-Blizzard for splitting up Starcraft II. Give me a break. If you can't adequately fight to have your game released properly, then you're either not convincing enough or (and this is the more likely scenario) you are in on it.
That was awful, mean-spirited, cruel and totally called for. I loved and agreed with every word of it. Activision sucks and the CEO is the exemplar of what not to do if you want to be successful in the video gaming industry because you enjoy video games.
i'm pretty sure they wouldn't be that dumb to do stuff like that, i'd almost be willing to bet that it tanks cause of this and everyone will wonder why.AceDiamond said:
actually that's wrong, there are ppl who scream and cry about and no matter what the person in charge will hear nothing of it. prime example is the sept 11 attacks and bush, in this case he ignored EVERYTHING that was told to him including a report titled "bin laden determined to attack within america" by your logic those attacks happened cause ppl weren't telling him enough
there is plenty of times where the boss won't listen to what employees tell them will happen if they do something stupid and there's not much else you can really do cept let the thing fail and/or quit
