Problems are occurring between Modern Warfare developer Infinity Ward and publisher Activision, and they're not digital problems.
According to a G4 source, a "bunch of bouncer-types" have turned up at the Infinity Ward studios, unannounced. Studio heads Vince Zampella and Jason West met with Activision this morning, and both haven't been seen since.
Now though, Infinity Ward CTO Jason West has reportedly updated his Facebook status as "Jason West is drinking. Also, unemployed."
West's LinkedIn profile has also been updated:
"President/Game Director/CCO/CTO Infinity Ward
January 2001 – March 2010 (9 years 3 months)"
So for the moment, it looks like Jason West is no longer part of developer Infinity Ward. When updates reach us, we'll let you know.
UPDATE: Some more updates to bring you, as Activision are investigating "breaches of contract and insubordination by two senior employees at Infinity Ward." as revealed by an SEC filing made this morning by the publisher.
It goes on to say that the "matter is expected to involve the departure of key personnel and litigation. At present, the Company does not expect this matter to have a material impact on the Company."
