  • "A reason for why he left the company was provided at this time." Do you mean was not provided?
  • Well then, looks like Activision is screwed with it's fancy knick-knacks and such.
  • Good. I like him a lot, I'm glad he is free from that awful company.
  • He just wanted to leave before Bobby sent security to drag him out.
  • Hmmmm...maybe he was tired of making the same game over and over and over and over again?
  • "A reason for why he left the company was provided at this time." WHAT IS THE REASON D:<<<<<<
  • He probably left because Bobby Caught-Dick and Glen Schofield are assholes. Even though I don't care for Call of Duty, I think Bowling was the only one with a proper head on his shoulders.

  • Did he get tired of the bullshoy too? Bored of making the same game every year?
  • Wow, came out of nowhere.

  • i'm not big on cod  but good luck to the guy maybe he'll get to do things more 'new' in the future

  • ha it says payback for the picture
  • another short 2 the point story, the reason is the real story, or lack of... best of wishes all the same...
  • ... Maybe he'll get recruited into Respawn Gaming.
  • Mod
    Am I the only one that read his post in a "not so happy right now" tone? Wonder where he'll go next.
  • Hope he got a good strike package... I mean, benefits package.

  • Best of luck to him. Wherever he goes next, Im looking forward to it.
  • Wow what a month, with the Zipper Interactive problem, and now Infinity Ward losing an important face, now I wonder how can Infinity Ward maintain their reputation ? , even though... they are collapsing little by little.
  • Infinity Ward is a joke, they pretty much all left after MW2.  Series is just all a sellout.
