RUMOUR: Activision remove senior Infinity Ward staff

Tuesday, 02 March 2010 14:13 Michael Menzel

Apparently, Activision has actioned some fairly heavy-handed organisational changes at Infinity Ward, the uber-developer responsible for the Modern Warfare installments to the Call Of Duty series.

According to G4TV's The Feed some non-uniformed bouncer-like men showed up outside the Infinity Ward offices unannounced and studio heads Vince Zampella and Jason West weren't seen again by fellow employees following a meeting with Activision on Monday morning.

Infinity Ward community manager, Rob Bowling addressed the situation via Twitter, writing "I should also say, while I appreciate all the calls, tweets, messages and hearing my ringtone a lot, they're in vain - as I have no info."

Jason West updated his Facebook status today to unemployed, ending his 9 years and 3 months with Infinity Ward. This makes the story seem to be true, even though solid facts have not yet been released.

Interested to see what the whole deal with this is. What is it Activision have been trying to make them do that they clearly don't agree with.

Who cares. They will soon get snapped up by rival Dev's. If they are good at what they do, wont take em long to get back into work.

Lucifonz : it reminds me of Conker, that was one of my fave xbox games but no sign of it on 360, and jak 2 is one of my top 3 ps2 games but no sign of it on ps3
Lucifonz : when they announce jak 4 i'll be a very very excited man, assuming they stick to the same format as 2 and 3
Lucifonz : thinking about it i've liked pretty much everything naughtydog have done, crash bandicoot, jak and uncharted are all ace, whereas insomniac is the opposite
Lucifonz : well yeah obviously, never played the first jak but the 2nd was just amazing, like mixing gta with a platformer and the characters are awesome, ratchet doesnt resonate with me at all just find it real boring but im not too into platformers
The Guvnor : its only sooooooooooooooooooooooo much better in your opinion tho aint it. I have played them all. I much prefer r&c games
Lucifonz : jak 2 one of my fave ps2 games
Lucifonz : jak is naughtydog but they'l be doing UC3
Lucifonz : they're two totally different dev teams, jak is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much better than r&c
The Guvnor : maybe they will make a jak game. After they finished with r&c. The demand for r&c is clearly much more
The Guvnor : u even played the games?
Lucifonz : just make a proper new Jak game!!!!!
Lucifonz : not impressed by that game at all
The Guvnor : «link» Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One looking good. 4-payer coop should be ace
Lucifonz : «link»
Lucifonz : i think enslaved looks better from them shots
The Guvnor : man Heaveny Sword still looks so much better than Enslave, and its like 4 years older lol. Still, Enslaved will rock !!!!!
The Guvnor : it may well be better on pc. But i dont have a pc. And for that price, think im gonna have a bash at it then ebay
Lucifonz : got a complete new love for tested.com after their bits on the whiskeymedia big live live show live last night, real interesting and pretty funny
Lucifonz : thats an amazing price guv, still that game is so much better on pc, but for a fiver cant really go wrong!
Lucifonz : also apparently the installed base of 360's is like 3x as much as it was when halo 3 was released
