God she was annoying.

I hate her about as much as I hate Bobby Kotick.

Having a bad stage presence is as bad as basically telling gamers you want to milk them?

I'm serious. That opinion is flawed, due to the total lack of respect to gamers on Kotick's part, and the total lack of malice to gamers on Dunaway's part.

Hate's a pretty irrational emotion so it's not an opinion you can disqualify.

I admit Kotick is a more detestable businessman, but - and I can't put my finger on why this is - Cammie still stirs up an equal amount of rage in me.

Oh well. I hope she'll be happy in her new job.

I sort of liked her.

Well think of it this way. She thought she would do well, was shown twice it wouldn't work, and decided to bow out this E3. Kotick has clearly not learned.

A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

I suspect this probably wasn't (entirely) her decision ... In the past I have known of several executives who have (effectively) been told that they aren't a good fit for the company, and they should seek out another opportunity. The reason they tend not to fire them, or lay them off, is because they don't want to create a negative news story against the company.
