You can't do that! What if you did that on a game like Metal gear Solid 4 then the playtime would be cut down to about 15 minutes. Cutscenes are part of a game and removing them to use for a movie would make the game incomplete.. who the fuck would buy an incomplete game. This tyrant must be stopped at all costs.

No. They have too much self-respect to associate themselves with the likes of him.

The most important question has been left unclear:

will they cut those scenes from the vanilla games?

If yes, then worst stupid dick move since the merger.

If no, then no harm done and more power to Activision, supposing gamers will still buy this anyway.

Oh God why don't we just kill him already? We let EA live because we still think they could learn but we all know DAMN GOOD AND WELL! Kotick will not learn.

on a completely unrelated note:
"Kotick" means "kitty" in Russian. Seriously.

ha. way to not get it at all again kotick

spending 30 dollars for cut scenes ripped unceremoniously out of a 60 dollar game is hilarious. Especially if it's a game you already bought.

Think of this: Do you own Starcraft 2? Would you pay an extra 30 dollars for the cutscenes from that game on DVD? If you don't own starcraft 2, why would you care enough to spend 30 dollars, and if you do own it, why would you spend 30 dollars when the cutscenes are available to view anytime once you've unlocked them?

Unless they intend to make games in the future that don't have that option, but in that case, I think I'll just replay those scenes again or look for them on youtub----- wait. I see what you're doing. Not going to work Kotick.

$20-$30?! Yeah right. Good luck with that one. Try more like $5 and maybe you'll see some sales, but I would guess not too many. I'm not biting. This is seriously delusional.

No for some reason every time I hear "Bobby Kotick" I hear Russian national anthem...

I have no idea why...

Strange, all I can hear when I read about his shit is raining blood by Slayer.

Louder and louder and louder.

Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with Kotick? Does he want to be seen as the biggest asshole in the entire gaming industry and completely destroy Activision by aggrivating gamers so much that they actually will stop buying games from them? Plus, SC2 only had like 5-10 minutes of CG cinematics.

But that sounds glorious rather than sinister and evil...

[sub]And I'm pretty sure that's the Soviet national anthem...[/sub]

Yeah well, 90% of the people that buys his stuff does not even know that he exist.

That is true, but I'm pretty sure they will notice that somehow the story's mostly missing. And then they'll notice that they're supposed to buy it. And then they'll notice that that only happens with games from Activision. And then they'll stop buying them. Hopefully. Judging from how many people bought MW2 for PC, I'm really not so sure. Gamers just seem to love being abused by the publishers.

That might just make a proper prequel Trilogy to Star Wars. Deceived and Hope are both better than the PT combined,

Satan strikes again! But anyway, if they DO switch cutscenes to a separate thing, they had BETTER start lowering the price 10,15 dollars. Then I could just watch cutscenes on the internet, and buy a cheaper game.

Sounds like Bobby was in the habit of taking the frosting off of zingers when he was a kid and sucking out the cream filling, leaving the cake.
Which pretty much describes this idea. Sooner they get this buffoon out of work the better for Activision and Blizzard and Vivendi.
