Pachter: Respawn “is the ultimate screw-you to Activision”

Vince Zampella and Jason West have given “the man” who is Bobby Kotick and Activision the finger. With yesterday’s Respawn news, it turned into a “screw-you” as well.
“This is the ultimate screw-you to Activision — and the ultimate screw-you to EA,” said Michael Pachter, who also remembers the old days of 2015 Inc. and the Medal of Honor days for the pair.
“By going to EA now and getting paid up, they say, ‘you’re finally paying us what we’re due’,” added the Wedbush Morgan analyst. “EA are being the bigger people here. They’re not wounded at all by the fact that they lost these guys and the Medal of Honor brand deteriorated.
The ex-Infinity Ward bosses announced the formation of the new studio, with EA Partners overseeing distribution and publishing of the title.
Get everything from what happened yesterday here.
Thanks, Gama.

I am going to say something to you, I am not the only one reading these forums! For every dumb comment you make. There a lot of people looking right at you. We don’t see eye to eye but I will tell you this there is millions of people who would agree with me. For one reason or the other you think your smart but your not.
another thing don’t talk things you have no clue or you have no ideas about.

I guess I was wrong for thinking I could speak to you like a mature adult. I decided to single you out because you seemed to love God as much as I do but appearently that isn’t the case. True, these guys were arguing with you but you were the one who started bashing and trash talking. Look at comments 7,8, 9, and 10. You started off in comment 7 with your opinion. Then you continued in comment 8 with more of your opinion. In # 9 Gekidami followed your opinion with his own opinion/statement. 10 is where you lost your opinion when you started trash talking and acting the high and mighty.
You started the argument buddy. Relax, breathe, be a better man and Let it go….I thought you had. Maybe at least in the future you will do so. Hopefully

you know, a lot of people ‘ve seen you posting stuff like that for well over a year, bdh. and I don’t think making fun of you occasionally makes me “dumb”. on the other hand, you’ve got a point. I should’ve not not make fun of retards/kids, actually.
oh and do you want to meet with me? we can.

how am I a ‘hater’? I just made fun of all those bollocks you’ve been posting by making that comment. say you don’t care, when you instantly took offence. you don’t make sense.
and yeah, you’ve been posting bollocks. unless you start making sensible posts and actually discussing topics nobody will ever take you seriously. nobody out of all those “people reading this” like you said.

me saying that your posts don’t make sense and are nothing but chaotic crap you ‘ve read on the internet is an ‘opinion’? it is also a ‘wild statement’, ‘similar to Pachter’s’
and bdh, stop insulting other people with your fascist god crap. you make those christians feel bad.

well, first of I’m not ‘trying to debate’ with you. and there’s nothing to debate atm.
oh and no. I understand your posts, for the record I wasn’t even making fun of your illuminati stuff, or any religion. I was making fun of you. think about it.
oh, and frankly I generally never actually read your posts (I stopped doing that a long time ago). and I don’t think many people do either. it’s just so happened atm, I decided to make fun of you. frankly you’re boring, so it was a mistake really.

whats your point, do you really think I am soft like you. Man you are really cluesless. I told you already I don’t care what you think.
frankly I make fun of people all the time. People like you, I have to tell them more than once what I think. I make funny people who are full of hot air. Kind like patcher.
you know what we are going around in circles this is waste of mine time. I done.

“there nothing civil about a dictatorship!”
I wonder, BDH… By dictatorship, do you mean that the guys and gals that own and run VG247 are deciding what should happen with it? As in they own and run the website? Is that a dictatorship?
I am really not sure what I am trying to achieve here. Never mind.

no I am talking about pc gamers depending their platform with truth and facts.
No I am talking about freedom of speech freedom to defend my plat form.
freedom to defend my god with facts when people on ng4 attack god. Not have it delete because of people with miss information or false facts!
