@Mega_Loser That makes sense - if Orth was suggesting it WAS going to be online, then that hurts the product far more. Hence his sacking.

@jmr1986 Yeah - Ubisoft can adopt "Deal with it" as a subtext under their logo.

@TimeFrame He exceeded his authority, spoke without consulting the proper channels, speculated on an unreleased product all with ridiculous logic and sarcasm.

@ArabrockermanX There's no way he resigned. Why would he? It makes more sense that he was fired as he was less useful to MS than MS was to him.

I said in the orignal news article that he wouldn't get away with it, and he didn't. It's good to see Orth "get with the times" and explore the implications of voluntary redundancy.

If your hacks cause real world damage to public companies, they won't rest until they bust you. That's a sure fire way to **** of rich people.

I though it cost an "Infinite" amount of money to make.

Charles Whitman (Texas University shooter), Edward Charles Allaway (Cal. State shooting), Brenda Ann Spencer (Cleveland Elem. massacre) and many others never even played Pong, yet they still gave in to the urge to pick a weapon and unload it into innocent people. How does this noise-maker Senator explain those? Or, more importantly, why doesn't he campaign for better mental health care simultaneously?

Follow Up:

In further reports released, it's been confirmed that 990 of those 1000 are assigned to developing a new DRM system.
