Activision “interrogated” Infinity Ward devs for 6 hours

According to recently released legal documents filed by former Activision heads Jason West and Vince Zampella, Activision had a plan to fire the two of them all along. The documents suggest Activision went to extreme measures to create anxiety in West and Zampella in order to lessen their chances to cooperate with Activision’s investigation into an alleged breach of contract.

From the legal document:

“West and Zampella were interrogated for over six hours in a windowless conference room; Activision investigators brought other Infinity Ward employees to tears in their questioning and acquisitions and threatened West and Zampella with “insubordination” if they attempted to console them; Activision’s outside counsel, demanded that West and Zampella surrender their personal computers, phones and communication devices to Activision for review by Activision’s outside counsel and, when West and Zampella asserted their legally protected privacy rights, Activision’s counsel said that doing so constituted further acts insubordination.”

The document goes on to say Activision created trumped up charges against West and Zampella that lead to their termination
