Thanks for your reply. I'm sure many don't understand the workings of the corporate world when they make their comments. I suspect as well that with Activision at the helm, the demand for making profits for the shareholders, meeting the demands of the Board, and meeting the high executive salaries are even greater. The unfortunate part of this in the gaming industry is that the real losers of this are the developers, artists, other creative staff and the players. Sad that they are the ones who really make the game what it is, but get shafted the most.
