Utterly unforgivable on the part of Activision. You'd think someone would step up and buy them.

[up]Is there any other reason why Kotick is the page image of Corrupt Corporate Executive?

FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK

No....does this mean no more Project Gotham Racing? Or Blur? Oh, fuck you, Activision. I can't believe this is happening.

EA and Bethesda Softworks found a worthy opponent on the same scale of "FUUUUUUUUUU"

I think Activision has been beating them in that.

Or am I thinking of "F U"? As in "eff you, Kotick"!

Why not blame people for not buying Bizarre when Activision was shopping them around? What is Activision supposed to do - lose money?

And why blame Bobby Kotick? He's not even mentioned once in the article. The decision didn't even come down from him. Why not blame this Coddy Johnson fellow, Awesome McCoolname not withstanding?

What is this Bizarre Creations anyway? Can't say that I ever heard of them.

Blur?

In my opinion, this is an improvement...

@Nyarly: They are a British developper famous for their racing games (Project Gotham Racing, Metropolis Street Racer, Formula One 97 on the original playstation ect) and Geometry Wars.

They made Geometry Wars. Those other things may be of no interest to me, but Geometry Wars is. SADNESS.

Sometimes, when playing Project Gotham, I would play Geometry Wars before doing a race.

An hour later, I would realize I still hadn't done that race. I kept playing Geometry Wars.

...So they're getting shut down because nobody thought to buy the creators of Geometry Wars? The hell?

You Brits love to make racing games huh? Well I got a copy of Geometry Wars. Your legacy will live on, as soon as I get around to opening the thing.
