Infinity Ward founders canned by Activision

It's not the same relationship Activision had with IW though.

"Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"

Nah, all of this started because IW wanted to work on a new IP and not on MW2. I get the feeling that Bungie will bend over more.

I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*

Funny thing is that IW guys left the MoH group for the exact same reason.

They have a history of abusive relationships with publishers :x

 

But is not like they were wrong to want to work on a new IP, perhaps they didn't expressed their discomfort properly (they bitched and moaned about it) but Acti didn't come out as the bigger man either. They basically took this incident and decided to cut West and Zamp out to have a more docile IW, well I guess now the joke is on them since this legal battle has cost them the rest of the team.

I guess he couldn't handle the guilt. :bow: and now they have Bungie under their thump. Should go well together, considering that Bungie only releases Halo games and a bunch of spin offs.

 

Oh how short a gamer's memory is.

You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that?

They had 3 Myth games, 3 Marathon games, that Japanese look alike called Oni and the Halo Empire. Naming Bungie's other work is like naming any other movie directed by George Lucas that doesn't have Star Wars on the title. Sure they exist, but does anyone really know them?

People Know myth if they were around when it came out. it was fantastic in that it had persistent units, no method of construction, and took physics (kinda) into account in a strategy game.

 

Dwarves throwing up hill=much bad and a calm guy going "Casualties" like he was saying "The sky is blue".
