Infinity Ward in Crisis; Security Appears Unannounced At Studio

Just as EA release Battlefield: Bad Company 2 to combat the juggernaut Modern Warfare 2, MW2 developer Infinty Ward is apparently in its own war against its owner, Activision.

G4TV reports “a bunch of bouncer-types”  has appeared at the studio and when approached by employees, although they did not reveal who they were to even the employees.

Infinity Ward studio heads Vince Zampella and Jason West are reportedly meeting with Activision, and 2 hours later, Jason West apparently facebooked and linkined that he has been fired.

Infinity Ward has been known for standing up to Activision; apparently, as 1up’s source puts it:

Activision is “flexing their muscles”

against the studio, which is attempting to “push back against change.”

The mood in the studio is described as “freaked out” and “confused”.

More on this story as it develops. I posted links to news articles where you can read up about this below.
