Your thoughts on Activision firing Radical Entertainment?

For those of you who don't already know Activision fired Radical Entertainment from their pay role because "Although we made a substantial investment in the Prototype IP, it did not find a broad commercial audience. Radical is a very talented team of developers, however, we have explored various options for the studio, including a potential sale of the business, and have made a difficult conclusion through the consultation process that the only remaining option is a significant reduction in staff. As such, some employees will remain working for Radical Entertainment supporting other existing Activision Publishing projects, but the studio will cease development of its own games going forward."
This means that, for all the Prototype fans like myself, there will not be another one. Yeah, we all know how that makes us feel. Cliffhanger, nothing to close it.

I guess that's business. I've only played Prototype once, and I loved it. It sounds like Activision wasn't satisfied with Radical Entertainment. Or Activision might not be making enough money to support Radical Entertainment. Sometimes people get laid off. And when it happens, it sucks. But sometimes it has to happen.

It's just business. Though I never played any of the Prototypes or I did and never got into them, I see how you feel. That would be like ending modern warfare 2 and never picking it back up. So yeah, I see how you feel, but this was probably the best Activision could do.
Hard times man look around us. Think about people who actually LOSE their jobs and can't support themselves or their family and end up sleeping on the streets. And all thats happening to the Prototype fans is their no getting there picker-upper. Just think about how selfish that makes you look.
That's what I think about it.
