Five More Depart Infinity Ward; Former Staff Joining Respawn Entertainment

[Zips]

More staff have made the exodus from Infinity Ward today. Kotaku reports that five more lead developers are departing the crumbling Infinity Ward and looking to put their talents to use elsewhere.

- Mohammad Alavi - Senior Designer
- Chad Grenier - Senior Designer
- Brent McLeod - Senior Designer
- Chris Lambert - Programmer
- Jason McCord - Designer

This brings the total number of departures up to over 17 staff members. At the moment, seven of those 17+ have announced that they will be taking up positions at Respawn Entertainment. Respawn, as you may recall, was formed by former IW execs West and Zampella.

Considering how eager they were to mock PC gamers and sell out over and over, I don't think I'll be buying anything they produce. Piss on Respawn. Cocky uber-douchebags. I bet Bowling will be next to sign on over there.

gah. That C*nt. Whatever happened to Collier anyway? at least he knew how to sugar-coat sh!t properly for us PC gamers instead of making it all the more worse.

Bowling is a douche. Knows nothing about PC games/gamers and revolves around the console like a ***. Dude has to go dig a hole and die in it. If Respawn takes him on ... screw Respawn.

I am hoping they seriously don't. Bowling needs to stay with the other failures at Activision. Respawn should make some sweet *** game being under EA now .. really kick Activision in the balls.

pc gamers rule :P
hope they sack the lot

This.

The entire mentality that PC gamers hated about the new IW is right there in Respawn. I wouldn't expect anything less than another MW2 style game. Whatever their next game is going to be, I wouldn't trust it until there is a FREE demo for you to try out firsthand.

Exactly. It wasn't Bobby Kotick in interviews laughing at and insulting PC gamers.
