[Update] Infinity Ward: Unexpected Guests

iwlogo

Update:

Well internet there is some sad news coming out of this update to the story that was happening yesterday.  Seems that Infinity Ward has confirmed that president Jason West and CEO Vince Zampella are no longer with company.  This comes to us after a long day of wondering why people were showing up unannounced and trying to find out what happened to the heads of the company.

It is a sad day when people that who have been with you for so long leave but we here are sure that both Jason and Vince will have no problem finding a new place to call home and we wish them the best.

It you want the full story and to see what Tim Schafer has to say about all this, you can check both links here:

Infinity Ward – Confirmed

Infinity Ward – Unannounced Guests

Original Story:

On one of my walks through the interwebs, I have found something that could be a little unnerving.  Apparently, sometime today a “bunch of bouncer-types” showed up outside at Infinity Ward and did not give out any information as to why they were there.

There is not much information at the moment given out right now.  Aside from the fact that this happened in the morning. Around the time that Activision had a meeting with Infinity Ward heads Vince Zampella and Jason West, who have not been seen since.

Obviously this is leaving the staff at Infinity Ward a little worried. Unfortunately there is no new information to give out.  We will be following the story as information is released but you can also keep track of this where I found it:

This has me wondering though, could this be a P.R. event? Is there something big coming from Activision and Infinity Ward?
