Lol what? They purchased them because all the bad shit that was happening at ActiBlizz drove the price down and when the transaction is complete the ActiBlizz leadership will be shown the door. This is an opportunity for cooler heads to come in an clean house. There is likely a transition period where Kotick is required to stick around and bring new leadership up to speed before he exits, that’s how most purchases of large companies go. The small private company I worked for was purchased by a much larger public company, a contractual part of the purchase was that our original private owners needed to stay on the payroll for two years to transition leadership to the new owners. They were let go 2 years and 1 day after the purchase. It’s completely normal.

Post about the meetup in June, I wanna be there for that. EDIT: I scheduled an appointment to get a tattoo a handful of days before Ryan passed. I had a plan for it but changed it completely. I didn't want to copy him directly, felt weird, but I did want to immortalize him in my own way, this is my sons initials.

The reason that GameStop didn't sell the game on Tuesday was because everyone that bought the game on Tuesday morning could not retrieve the full property at the time of sale. Sony didn't add the download for the games that need to be downloaded off PSN before Tuesday and Gamestop has a company policy that if a person cannot walk out of the store with 100% of their purchase or 100% access to their purchase then they can't sell it. Not to protect or make you happy, just an "In case someone tries to sue us" type thing. So since the download for the games not on discs didn't go up till PSN updated (11ish) on Tuesday you could not access your full purchase and Gamestop held all sales until the following day when everything was ready. The Gamestop employee didn't lie, the original email set to every Gamestop was that the game was delayed indefinitely, sony gave them the information on when the downloads would be available and they reissued an email saying the game was delayed 1 day to Wednesday (7/10/13) when the download and therefore the whole purchase was accessible. As an example of a reason Gamestop did this, if they sold the game on Tuesday and PSN goes down for a month like it did last year you would have a portion of your purchase that you have no access to, Gamestop doesn't want to deal with the hassle of you coming back pissed because you can't get your game, so they don't sell it till it's all ready to go at the time of sale.

oh god, someone tell his parents that sending around pictures of him nude as a child is probably not a good idea, I think technically that could be construed as child porn... I didn't tweet them, they don't know me I don't want to be a bother...

I wrote a big huge thing and deleted it, I love you guys even though we never met, I'm going to miss Ryan and I can't wait to see you all come back bigger, stronger, and more badass just like Ryan would have wanted. Drew,Dave, Alexis, Matt, and Alex aren't pictured but the crew wouldn't exist without you awesome guys and anyone else I forgot or never knew about.

Uncomfortable in that if I was wearing that shirt I would spend my whole day pulling on the sleeves to try and get them to cover more... He looks like he gets cold armpits... Maybe it doesn't get cold in Cali so he doesn't have problems... I dunno...
