You had to have seen this one coming — It was just announced that the Infinity Ward head honcos that recently got laid off are bringing Activision to court to the tune of $36 million. However, that’s not all they are suing for, they are suing for something worth much more than $36 million; control over the Modern Warfare franchise.

The reason for the law suit is as follows:

Activision terminated their employment weeks before they were to be paid substantial royalty payments as part of their existing contracts for Modern Warfare 2.

Regardless of what Jason West and Vince Zampella did, I can only imagine how pissed they must be that Activision isn’t paying them for the game they worked so hard on.
