West and Zampella were upset because they decided to sell right before Modern Warfare became huge... heck, they haven't really even refuted any of Activisions claims.

Duh.. they are preparing to go into court... why say anything so the other party can use it and prepare their defence...

Because if your innocent, nothing you say can be used against you.

 

You're smart enough to know that it doesn't work like that in real life..

Sure it does.  At least if all you say is... "They aren't telling the truth."

Someone who's innocent... has no problem saying "I'm innocent." well unless it's an episode of Law and Order or Law and Order SVU and they need a clifhanger last minute reveal of "Wait it was this guy all along!"

In fact... if your innocent you usually want to shout it from the rooftops... afterall not doing so pollute jurors wondering why you aren't. 

 

But.. thats not the way to do that... you say: "they aren't telling the truth... and here is our evidence... Mr judge & jurors"

Simply telling "they aren't telling the truth" would be enough for all the gamelovers.. but not in court.. jurors must look at the evidence not public opinion.. 

They aren't even saying that in public. 

I mean... lets review the facts.

 

1) Something happens.

2) West and Zampella are fired for negotiating under EA when they had a clause saying they aren't aloud to negotiate under contract along with other non sited issues.

3) West and Zampella are fired.

4) West and Zampella IMMEDIATLY open up a studio with EA.  Sue for Activision for when they were fired.  (Not why.)

5) Activision puts up a countersuit.

6) West and Zampella contest nothing.

 

The fact that people actually think West and Zampella are innocent here boggles my mind.  I mean, they opened a studio... with the exact company they were accused of negotating with... practically immediatly after being fired. 


It would be like Apple firing me for spying on them to Microsoft and that I was arranging a deal to be President of the Zune branch... then two weaks later I got a job as President of the Zune branch.
