Infinity Ward (or whetever name they will go by) is still top dog when it comes to PC shooters, at least until Valve pull their finger out and release something (ANYTHING!).

I'm not a great console gamer but i've never got the "best game evar!" hype surrounding Halo, I played 1 and 2 and found them to be solid, enjoyable shooters, but I wasn't blown away like I have been with stuff like Half Life.

It appears that Activision is going to take Infinity Ward behind the toolshed and put it out of its misery as well.

What I don't get is why Activison don't listen to the people they depend on the most: Gamers?
I'm starting to think that if Bobby Kotick or whatever his name is was asassinated then the company would settle down.
All I see is EA and Activision doing a role reversal here.

Because shareholders and the bottom line > gamers.

So, they are off to ruin Halo now? Predicting Bungie will jump ship in 2 years when they are forced to produce another Halo game every year.

wow.. Blizz better abandon ship.. I'm sure they have more than enough money to handle whatever Activision tries and throws at them.

I just.. love Blizzard and I fear for it. They're like the last developers that makes me feel like they care because they play games too.
