yes, very nice. sadly, i don't think this suit will end with a lady's uncanny knowledge of classic cars.

The two yoots...


Excuse me, counselor??

1. Hire company to create the best selling entertainment media of all time
2. Fire their presidents even though you don't even own the company
3. Refuse to pay royalties
4. ???
5. JERKS (no, you can't profit from this)

Maybe this is actually an elaborate plan from Infinity Ward to get more money by suing Activision. Can their company seriously be this dense?

Allow me to clarify that.
1 Hire company to make best selling game of all time
2 Fire the top guys
3 Refuse to pay the huge amount of due royalties
4 Make as many cheap cash ins as possable before this 'fad' goes away. (way to think long term guys)
5 Jerks, but jerks who think they will make millions on over priced games made on the cheap.

Call them overpriced, but they sold more than any other game ever. I'm not sure how anyone can be mad at Activision for giving the market what it obviously wants.

--- Replying to txshurricane -----Because they're going to run the series into the ground like they did Guitar Hero (thank god for Rock Band) and Tony Hawk. I've put countless hours into CoD 2 and 4 (and even 3! I don't know why people hated it). But I put maybe 20 hours into MW2 and I have no intention of putting the disk back in my 360. They've effectively killed the series and are putting out zombies (not no Nazi Zombies in MW2? The hell?!).

Also in Britain MW2 RRPed at £65. Most places sold it for 50-40, but even now it's dear. Compair AvP, £30 brand new.

But yes, their goal is to release them like mad while it's cool. The idea being you get as much money as quickly as possable. This is fine for the idiots who see games as fasion accessories, but for the gamers it means crap. Westling Games, Unreal Tourniment, Band Games, Tony Hawks, all were driven into the ground by this crap as quick turn overs don't allow you to make real changes to the game, only incremental ones and even then, mostly graphics upgrades. It's the opposate of Half Life and Eldar Scrolls.
