the pair was skeptical about the autonomy hinging on the continued employment - wondering whether Activision would simply fire them to regain control over the brand - but apparently, Bobby Kotick himself has assured them that it would be impossible for the pair to be fired. Because of this assurance, the pair signed the contract without pushing for a more solid commitment from Activision.
Well, that was bloody stupid, wasn't it?! Especially if nothing like that was in their contracts, and/or they didn't demand such a clause in their contracts, if nothing like that pre-existed... Hindsight's a ***** though, right?

When is this cluster**** getting into a court? My guess is on the 12th of never.

I just want my Call of Duty back.
Maybe we can get EA & Activision to co-produce a game. They can call it Call of Suity. It will be a coop shooter starring West & Zampella. They go back and forth between the two evil factions and ultimately pick which of them to side with... EA or Activision. You can storm buildings and shoot programmers, secretaries, and board members. It will spark media outrage, and the final boss can be Bobby Kotick.

I smell a hit here.
That actually sounds like quite a brilliant idea
Seconded. But you'd only get to fight/defeat Kotick after it's revealed that EA and Activision were secretly working together all along, in order to cover up some nefarious, potentially world-destroying eeeeevil deeds(!!)
Soooooooooooooo... Deus Ex: Infinity Ward edition? Maybe call it Deus Ex: Infinity War, and it's revealed that EA and Activision are both subsidaries of the Illuminati and it's up to West and Zampella to save the video game industry from the corporate machine?

The front pages of the escapist news points to the downfall of good gaming. Lawsuits out the ass from the big guys, the small guys, individuals, organizations, and pretty much everyone involved with the industry or choosing to be involved with the industry.
