Well, it seems it’s finally reaching that closure point we’ve all been looking for in the middle of the lawsuits and counter-suits. Not content to just stay frosty, Jason West and Vince Zampella are oscar mike, formally anouncing the creation of the cleverly named Respawn Entertainment with exclusive backing from Electronic Arts. Zampella and West had this to say in a prepared statement:
“Respawn Entertainment marks a fresh start for Jason and me. For the past decade we led a great development team and poured our hearts into creating an epic game franchise. We’re very proud of what we built – and proud that so many millions of fans enjoyed those games. Today we hope to do it all over again — open a new studio, hire a great team, and create brand new games with a new partner, EA.
We’re excited. Now that the team is in control of the games and brands, we can ensure that the fans are treated as well as they deserve.”
Not that this wasn’t seen from a mile away, but it’s definitely a great and ironic name for these two to have decided on for their new studio. I understand that their strength has always been with FPS games and “Respawn” is a creative and simple name, but it’s plain to see the added insult towards Activision for firing them.
Currently, all the two have is a name, a website, and a backer, but it will come as no surprise that whatever games these two make will sell. That’s a fact. Most people criticize EA for their business model, but with details of this showing that whatever is created will remain in the hands of those who created it, people are going to buy their game for sheer support of the “wrongs” that Activision has done and support this newly developed studio.
Tango Down, EA.
I love the name for it. Very clever…
I think my top one playboy bunny is Kim Kardashian What do you people think of her? She is very alluring to me.
Loving thegamerzzone.com by the way, most interesting website I’ve found in ages. Anyone know where I can get more pics of her? So far I just have these two (Kim Kardashian)
I feel obliged to say that I’m impressed how well-written this blog is.
