Glad to see you...

If the gaming industry is an automobile, and the game designers are the drivers, then that makes us, the players, backseat drivers, and we'll be damned if we're gonna let the industry keep on heading the way it's going (good or bad) without letting them know what we think. So buckle up, feel free to complain about there being no air in the back, and bring your most critical and analytical mind to the open air discussion of the current age, Backseat Gamers!

Breaking News

Breaking News:

Amidst the turmoil of Infinity Ward employees abandoning the company like rats from a sinking ship and fed up with Activision and it's CEO Bobby Kotick, Sergeant Gary "Roach" Sanderson, Private First Class Joseph Allen, Private James Ramirez, Captain John "Soap" MacTavish, Simon "Ghost" Riley, and Captain John Price will not be returning to the Call of Duty series.

It was officially confirmed this morning that none of these stars will be featured in any future Modern Warfare game titles. Though several of these characters were killed off in the series, they refuse to appear in any flashbacks, memory montage's, pictures, documents, videos, and any and all other means.

Captain John "Soap" MacTavish

MacTavish spoke with reporters, saying "I refuse to participate in a series that is saturating the market with short campaigns, raised prices, less bullets, unstoppable perks. Also, Bobby Kotick is an ass." MacTavish went on in length on how he wanted to show his support to the Infinity Ward employees by leaving the Modern Warfare 3 project. He is confident that he will be able to find work in other war-themed games and claims he has already been approached for a brief cameo in Medal of Honor and possibly Battlefield 3.

Captain John Price

Price said that he had no comment for reports but stood to the side, nodding his head in agreement, as MacTavish spoke with reports. Price did confirm that he will not be staring in a role in Modern Warfare 3.

Simon "Ghost" Riley

Simon Riley, best known as "Ghost", covered his face when confronted by reporters, even going so far as knocking a camera to the ground and threatening physical violence if he was not left alone. No charges have been filed as if this time.

Bobby Kotick

Upon contacting Activision, Bobby Kotick, in his real form, said in a statement "#$%*&% them and their &#$#& mothers. They #$@*&$# tried to make gaming #%*&$#* fun and we'll have none of that #*$&$^ at Activision. Modern Warfare 3 does not need their $^%@#*& in $^$%*#@ or #$^%$%@."

Bobby Kotick's PR Manager paraphrased, claiming that Activision was sorry to see them go but fully understood their desire to pursue other projects and said that their parting was on good terms with Activison and it's CEO.
