I've been in that position before, giving 2 weeks notice and being told basically "the door's right there..."

It's definitely a shoddy position to be in as an employee, because if you don't give (at least) 2 weeks notice, you're seen very negatively, but if you do stuff like this can happen; it's definitely a humiliating position to be in.

Then again, this can pretty much only be seen as Tecmo behaving like children after Itagaki behaved like an adult, so...

They're gonna miss him wether they want to admit it or not. Tecmo will never be the same...

Love the product, not the company. They love your money, not you.

After the crapfest that was NG2 he deserved it. Not since Devil May Cry 2 has a sequel failed so epicly compared with the original.

ng2 didnt fail at all, its selling about the same rate as the 1st one. also its a very good game, a alot better than dmc games. besides he and the former members of team ninja probably all got hired and a new studio from ms.

So did he simply resign/get fired and is now making his own studio or what?

i think he can come up with some good ideas for games

but u guys are right, he is one creepy f*ck!

But then again, most brilliant people these days are, right?
