Infinity Ward & Activision Will Have Their Day in Court

August 5th 2010 will be the next date for another hearing between these two companies who produced Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. There has been a total of 3 lawsuits filed against Activision from former employees.

Back on the 1st of March 2010 Activision fired West and Zampella, creators of the Call of Duty series, claiming they were insubordinate and broke their contract. They fought back with a lawsuit seeking $36,000,000 in unpaid royalties. And of course Activision counter-sued.

Since this mess West and Zampella have created Respawn Entertainment and signed on with EA.

And Activision has signed a 10 year contract with Bungie.

The current Call of Duty: Black Ops is being developed by Treyarch.
