A veteran of the games industry is deeply concerned about the franchise’s future.
Glen Schofield, a former director on the Call of Duty series, has voiced significant concern about the franchise’s trajectory under Microsoft’s ownership. He warns that the company’s corporate culture could, over time, clash with the teams responsible for the series.
Look at what’s happened to Gears of War. Where has Halo gone? Consider EA and other major publishers — where are the new Strike entries? Where are the rest of the titles? A lot of projects are simply abandoned. Unfortunately, when a company swallows you up, you tend to absorb its traits.
