WHAT THE FUCK was bobby kotick and his goons thinking when they decided to push the fire button on the terminate order...they really must have had some bad insider intel on the state of affairs at IW. This is like having a prized athlete on your team, and pissing him off...remember Kobe a few years back, now I don't particularly like the guy, but hte Lakers weren't stupid to let him go either when he was disgruntle...they got back Phil Jackson and get some quality players...not kotick and his goons...morons. How do you let your PREMIER franchise player leave?!?! If I was Morhaime, I'd say later for this shit...it's only a matter of time before kotick will start trying to mess with Blizzard...I'm fully convinced now.

As you guys said, two more people just left IW:

    * Kristen Cotterell -- Human Resources/Recruitment Specialist
    * Robert Field -- Lead Programmer

I wonder how IW will hire without their Recruitment Specialist?

By the way, 35% of Infinity Ward have now left!!!!!!!

That's right, there are 75 employees credited in MW2, and 26 (35%) of them just left!!! A HUGE BLOW, especially since  ALL of IW's LEAD DEVELOPERS ARE LEAVING.

I think that by E3, Activision is going to upll the plug on the unit, and find jobs elsewhere for those who want to stay.  They have lost all the brain trust, and it's msotly the mid-level and junior folks left, and those people are going to start moving over to where their mentors are, namely Respawn and elsewhere.

No more "biggest entertainment launch ever" for Activision. MW3 = sucks confirmed
