Activision vs. Infinity Ward Update

Looks like Infinity Ward is fighting back. The two lead developers who were let go, Vince Zampella and Jason West, are filing a lawsuit against Activision. It turns out that the royalties from Modern Warfare 2 were just about to kick in, making the timing of the devs' terminations suspiciously lucrative for Activision. In addition to attempting to gain some sort of compensation for their groundbreaking work, the devs are also trying to regain the rights to the Modern Warfare brand. If they are successful, and in my opinion they will be, so much for Treyarch; the co-developer has exclusivity with Activision and as such would no longer be able to participate in the development of CoD7.
