Examiner:
"Zombies, love them or hate them, their heads are designed to explode. Speaking exclusively with Examiner, Jason Blundell, Director of Campaign and Zombies on Call of Duty Black Ops 3 and the new story-included zombie mode, Shadows of Evil, told us how you’ll explode more heads faster."
Call of Duty Black Ops 3 has a new paintball mod in the works which aims to restore classic CoD multiplayer, if you’re tired of Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2
Deviation Games Co-Studio Head Jason Blundell has departed the studio. Dave Anthony continues to be CEO and has also adopted the role of Game Director. Louis Castle, a co-founder of Westwood Studios has joined the studio.
Already? Blundell only founded the studio two years ago. They haven't even released a game yet.
Honestly I think he left more because of personal issue rather than just leaving
That wouldn't make sense though. One of the walls at Deviation is decorated with large decorative lights in the shape of DualSense controllers. They were even fond enough of PS to enter a publishing partnership. Jason Blundell was also one of the co-founders, so if he didn't want to sell to PS he wouldn't have to.
Acquisitions typically require that the existing leadership team stays on for a certain period of time. Sony would also request that he lets them announce the acquisition before any high level departures.
Highly doubt this is an acquisition.
This seems highly unlikely.
I'm going to assume it's for a personal reason that Blundell doesn't want to be made public. That could mean medical issues or the like or something business-related they want to be gone.
Perhaps split over creative differences. Always difficult having a "co" role. You don't get full say in decisions.
Blundell and Anthony both co-founder of the company knew exactly what type of game they wanted to develop and work on. This feels more like a personal issue especially when a co founder leaves so quickly
The type of game to work on is 1 out of 1000+ decisions that get made. Plenty of room for gripes and split ways of thinking.
Well there is a rumor floating around that Sony might acquire the studio. I don't know why they would do that since deviation games hasn't made one game yet
Oof. Had hopes for blundell as I loved his work on zombies. Very unfortunate as it seems he may be too ambitious and high of standards for teams with too much of difference in opinions. Well...guess I'll keep an eye out but my expectations are a bit down now. These guys still need to prove themselves.
Marvel’s Avengers, Horizon Zero Dawn, and Bloodborne earn top spots across PS5, PS4, and PC.
Too bad God of War isn't on PSNow. It would've slaughtered the Avengers and Aloy!!
Yea, I can't find any. Not even the digital versions, Facebook has them going $400 over retail.
I need to cancel my subscription, there’s rarely anything I like that I don’t already have
I read it and I'm still not sure just what Blundell said - he never just explains something - it's always one riddle after another.
Love them or hate them. Its so simple: everybody loves shoting into zombies! But i dont if this is too much zombies in CoD. It might be a sign of this series, but is it good enough? Last wasnt too good. Treyarch have a credit so we will see if the made a good use of it. On the other hand i've a very good looking game called Sniper Ghost Warrior 3, which is very promissing game. Non linear scenario and lack of zombies mixed up with challenging weather conditions makes this game worth of waiting:)
