It's not as much eye candy as you'd think. The graphics are on par with Vanguard with character texturing. The building graphics are just below that of AOC. The world itself is gigantic, and what especially makes the world graphics look so good is the color pallette. They use very vivid colors but manage to keep it away from looking cartoony.

Here is more cannon fodder on why the Activision CEO is your typical MBA ass pirate. Honestly, this isn't the crap they teach in Business School, its not all about profits, its just that the turds always seem to float to the top because they are the ones willing to do whatever it takes to climb the Corp. ladder.

Those of us with actual ethics and apply them everyday suffer under the control of shit heels like this guy. The CEO at Boeing is a year away from being fired once his contract is up because he has the same "Employees are disposable commodities to be used until there no longer needed to drive profit margins" mentality.

You can thank that fuckwad Jack Welch from GE for most of the problems in Executive Officer ethics today. He is the poster child for Executive Officers who crap all over their employees in the name of profit.

You know...the first couple paragraphs showed some great ingenuity and innovation. Then I read the following statement:

Quote:

Kotick "pointed to changes he implemented in the past as being particularly beneficial, such as designing the employee incentive program so it 'really rewards profit and nothing else.'"


Everything after that makes it really hard to not want to shove a BFH down that guy's throat.

Apparently the guy doesn't understand the human spirit. When pinned down for too long, and absolutely dreading to go to your job...eventually you won't. You'll find a job with similar $$ or LESS, just so long as you don't want to kill someone or yourself by the end of the day.

Kotick probably doesn't care though--in fact, he probably wants that to happen. Then he can just hire some new, unweary schmucks for less, and continue the cycle. Going to such a job must be like playing a heavily-itemcentric MMO: You're absolutely hooked, can't remember why you enter "that world"; all you know is you must get the next larger hunk of cheese so that you can enter the even bigger maze, defeat the Rat inside, so that you can have .01% chance of receiving a wheel of cheese...
