Analyst: Activision to close Call of Duty developer Infinity Ward

April 28, 2010 in Industry News comments 6

The Infinity Ward / Activision soap opera continues as an analyst predicts what many already suspected...Infinity Ward isn't long for this world thanks to Activision.

Infinity Ward has experienced numerous defections since Activision sacked the two heads of the Call of Duty franchise. With the development of the franchise now spread across two other development groups, Janco Partners analyst Mike Hickey thinks it likely that Infinity Ward will be shut down after the next Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 map pack is released.

      I am torn as I don't want to fund Activision's greed, but I don't want to punish Treyarch for something that isn't their fault.

        Treyarch games usually suck anyway.

    They wont close it for shit. It would be far better and more realistic for them to just replace the lost team members and still use the brand name of IW to sell games.

      I know jobs are hard to come by these days but who would work for IW now after they know what Activision has done and is still doing.

        A lot of people would. Just because a few people quit doesnt mean that its going to be hell and no one will want to work. :/
