    More info is surfacing, and it's absolutely ridiculous. Infinity Ward is their own company...are you telling me that Activision who only publishes the game can simply come in and fire some one from "another" company in this case Infinity Ward? (the President of the company, no less). Do they actually have the right to do that? That's just fucking absurd!
