Dude, at the end of the day, they're just video games. We're talking about people's jobs here. Let's get real for a second.LovingSteam said:Just as classy as IW was towards the PC crowd.

1. IW demands Bungie-style restructuring.
2. Activision says go eff yourselves.
3. IW brass threatens to walk out.
4. Activision sends goon squad over to "protect" things.

squicken said:Really PC-GAF? Really? Even in your warped world where people deserve to get fired b/c they shunned you favorite platform, how about the 99% of the studio who had no say in the matter?

What makes you so certain that was an IW decision?LovingSteam said:And with the money they made throughout the years from Call of Duty, they will be able to open up a new office. Do I feel bad for the individuals who will lose their jobs and not find work for some time due to this (if its true) most definitely. For them I don't wish anything bad to happen. For the folks who are well off enough in IW who made the decision to gut the PC version I couldn't care less. There is a clear difference from the coder who goes job to job then the folks who rank in the $$$. Perhaps I should have made that clear in my original post. For that I do apologize.
No, that's my point. I don't think it was.SSM25 said:It was?

I don't think anyone is "wishing unemployment" on these goons. We're just :lol ing at the irony of how their OG fanbase was tossed to the wayside and now their OG developers are having the same thing done. If you work for a snake, don't be shocked when that snake bites you too.Cerrius said:Wishing unemployment on hard working people because they didn't include a game feature you wanted?
Hmmm..

'just video games'? Their job is making video games. If the product they make is unimportant, than so is their job. You can't separate one from the other.chubigans said:Dude, at the end of the day, they're just video games. We're talking about people's jobs here. Let's get real for a second.
