As some of you may know, the two owners of Infinity Ward were laid off recently by Activision. So this leads to the question: what will become of Call of Duty?

Activision has announced that the next COD will be released late 2011, but it's not going to be made solely by Treyarch either. Sledgehammer Games has decided to step up to the challenge. Proof can be found here: You must login or register to view this content.. They will be joining Treyarch and the rest of the Infinity Ward team. I don't know about you, but I'm pretty excited to see how a company I have never heard of will compare to past Call of Duty's.

So what about the ex-owners of Infinity Ward? They have gone and created a new company-Respawn Entertainment. They have managed to sign a deal with EA Games on their first day. They are starting strong with "seven million capital" from EA reports the LA Times. The two former Infinity Ward owners, Jason West and Vince Zampella, are not alone. Joining them will be lead designer Todd Alderman and lead software engineer Francesco Gigliotti from Infinity Ward. They will most likely be competing with Treyarch and Sledgehammer Games, as they have decided to continue making FPS games.

Law suits are being thrown back and forth between Activision and West and Zampella, so expect some more news on this in the upcoming months.

This is my submission for the News Team applications. Please tell me what you think! Anything that I could improve on? I didn't know where to post this, as it belongs in General Gaming News, but I can't post there.

Well i hope the new medal of honor next year will be good, it was nice playing black ops while it lasted.

Wow that was actually a good post, i thought it was copy pasted at first xD

Thanks Tacotime!

Yes, let's hope Sledgehammer does a great job. Dead Space was a pretty cool game, so I am expecting only good from them.

Wow, set in space and the future? This could either go very good or very bad. :O

I'm leaning towards very bad, to be honest.
