Four More Quit Infinity Ward; At Least 17 Out

Kotaku brings word of four more resignations at Modern Warfare 2 studio Infinity Ward, which has already lost most of its lead developers. The new departures are:
■Mohammad Alavi - Senior Designer
■Chad Grenier - Senior Designer
■Chris Lambert - Programmer
■Jason McCord - Designer

Late last night, news broke that seven former Infinity Ward members have rejoined ousted studio heads Jason West and Vince Zampella at Respawn Entertainment, the duo's new studio signed with Electronic Arts' Partners program.

You can bet resignations will continue to happen and it's likely that many more will join Respawn.

Treyarch is producing the rumoured COD 7: Vietnam, not IW. So even if IW gets shut down, I still think Activision is going to milk the poor gamer's money.

Of course they will, that's what they do.
Overcharge you for a game, then put out shit DLC and charge you for that.
I fully expect them to release a bullshit COD type game and act like it's all good.
But ti will be absolute garbage. Still dumb people will buy it and the garbage DLC that will follow.

Edit just incase some don't get it---------They're respawning as a new dev company.
