Re: Infinity Ward PR Stunt?
Also, remember this. The IW Staff have not yet received their bonus royalties from MW2, those who leave before receiving them are in effect cancelling their right to a cut of that bonus (the less people, the bigger the cut for everyone else), when that bonus is paid, I would we shall be seeing a few more leaving.

Re: Infinity Ward PR Stunt?
Interesting about Respawn Entertainment. Let's see they can pull off a good shooter as CoD1.

Re: Infinity Ward PR Stunt?
Infinity Ward employees sue Activision for $150 million-$625 million
lolololololololololololololololololololGamespot.com wrote:Following Activision's dismissal of Infinity Ward founders Jason West and Vince Zampella in March, the two executives responded with a $36 million lawsuit. Weeks later, Activision responded in kind, filing a countersuit accusing the two developers of being "self-serving schemers" trying to set up a new studio with the help of an unnamed Northern California publisher.
And you thought war was ugly…
Now, two weeks after West and Zampella announced the formation of independent studio Respawn Entertainment with seed money from Electronic Arts, a third lawsuit has apparently been filed by members of the Infinity Ward rank-and-file. G4 reports that 38 members of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 team are now suing Activision, claiming the publisher withheld $54 million of $82 million in Modern Warfare 2009 royalties it was due to pay out. As of January 13, Modern Warfare 2 had grossed over $1 billion worldwide, and is on record as being the biggest entertainment launch in history.
The group of 38 apparently wants a further $21 million to $71 million in compensatory damages for unpaid royalties, bonuses, stock options, and technology-related payments it claims Activision withheld. It is also seeking punitive damages of between $75 million and $500 million as a result of Activision's withholding of the bonuses, which the suit says was tantamount to holding "employees hostage so that Activision could reap the benefit of the completion of Modern Warfare 3."
The group of 38--not all of whom have left Infinity Ward--have apparently retained the services of Bruce Isaacs, a partner at the Beverly Hills law firm of Wyman & Isaacs LLP. "Activision owes my clients approximately $75 million to $125 million dollars," Isaacs is quoted as saying regarding the case. "Activision has withheld most of the money to force many of my people to stay, some against their will, so that they would finish the delivery of Modern Warfare 3. That is not what they wanted to do, many of them."
However, the legal filing reportedly contends that the publisher violated California state labor law by not paying out bonuses and any other owed monies within 72 hours of the termination of their employment. Since West and Zampella's dismissal, at least 26 Infinity Ward staffers have left the Encino, California-based studio. Among the employees named in the suit who have since jumped ship to Respawn include lead designer Todd Alderman, lead software engineer Francesco Gigliotti, lead environment artist Chris Cherubini, lead animator John Paul Messerly, lead animator Mark Grigsby, senior software engineer Chris Lambert, senior level designer Jason McCord, senior artist Ryan Lastimosa, and game designer Brent McLeod.
Representatives of an external PR company employed by Activision quickly rebutted the allegations in the new lawsuit. "Activision believes the action is without merit," said the rep. "Activision retains the discretion to determine the amount and the schedule of bonus payments for MW2 and has acted consistent with its rights and the law at all times. We look forward to getting judicial confirmation that our position is right."
