When Activision is trolling

This guy can't be real....
"But the traditional companies - the Electronic Arts, or Sony or Microsoft or Nintendo or Disney - that make console-based video games, are going to really struggle [in future] to figure out how to get into these online business we're in today."

Activision will be successful with their endeavors as long as there are thirteen year olds who can convince their parents to spend money on something that their kid will lose interest in after a couple of months.

The last two games I bought from Activision were Call of Duty 2 and Starfleet Command 3. The last two good games I bought from Activision were Chopper Command and River Raid.

And after this latest bit of asshattery, I may have to dig out the cartridges and run them through a wood chipper, just to underscore how much I hate Activision now.

I confess I bought into the hype of Modern Warfare 2 having played the first edition. However, having spent some time with the game and getting acquainted with the history of the company and their philosophy I've reverted to puking bile in their general direction. Such a ****ing shame seeing how much potential the initial Modern Warfare had. The image of that game became tainted by following events - much like the original Matrix was shat on by its successors.


Ha ha, "shat" is not censored.

I like apples.

I would have liked CoD 4 if they used a better engine. Their stuff is basically Quake 3, as you can tell from the horrible hitboxes and useless AI. The whole SP is powered by about six scripted events.

Some serious PC gamers may assassinate him one day.

Did you read where he said "Activision is the best company" ?

You'd think he's intentionally saying that kind of thing so he can attract bad publicity and eventually get fired (by who, I don't know). If he gets fired, he'll never have to work again, anyway, the git. It's guys like these that make capitalism look bad. :IS2:

Activision probably pay him a ****load of money to say that stuff.

Now-a-days, it seems like Activision trolls anytime they release a game.

Sometimes I just don't understand that man.

This.
Bobby Kotick must be the biggest troll in the gaming industry.
