Gamasutra picked up the story that Activision's Bobby Kotick has confirmed that 70% of his company's operating profit comes from "non-console based" games. And you know what that means. As if there was any doubt, we can now be sure that of the impact World Of Warcraft is having on filling Activision's coffers with precious gold. It doesn't matter how many plastic guitars Acti sells to the console owners, the biggest game publisher in the world is still being bankrolled by a PC game featuring malignant fishmen. Kotick is also hinting at a "subscription-based" version of the Call Of Duty franchise. So that should be interesting.
Bobby Kotick is a knob. If you want to know why, check his wikipedia page. I also seem to recall he's had a number of really shady business dealings as well, but they seem to have vanished.
Well, the fact that infinity ward got wind of his world of call of duty craft idea and decided to say no was a clue to him being a cock smoker.
And when he then had the contracts terminated of the studio heads as a result was another clue to the fact that he's a throbbing twunt.
And then when they declared their intention to sue for IP, contractual obligations he reneged on and lost royalties in the region of $3 billion or more it was kind of obvious that he's about as awesome as your dick rotting and falling off.
Tracking down a ninja is hard work, they're legendary for it. Dinosaurs have been pretty quiet recently too. But the only thing harder to find than both of them, combined, is a deity.
That picture when rated against such high levels of awesome falls a tad short.
But to consider the positives, There's a picture of the event, you'll not get one of a ninja dinosaur, let alone one of said ninja dinosaur punching the christian deity in his dude piston.
Rhino's are like dinosaurs that forgot to die so they're real angry about it.
The dude is ripped (no homo) and playing what looks to be a les paul studio at fret -1. Awesome to the extent he made a nuclear explosion with his dick kicking rock.
The picture is awesome. Around 2000 awesomes in fact. But the act itself would be very close to the top of the scale to my mind with close to 8000 awesomes.
Kotick: 70% Of Profit "Non-Console" Fuck Kotick, behold the Awesome!
