EA have announced the opening of a new studio. Respawn Entertainment will be opening for business soon, being helmed by Jason West and Vince Zampella (the duo currently taking Activision to court over unpaid royalties after their rather public dismissal from Infinity Ward). Currently they are pulling together a new team to work with them, But already the studio is building a fan-base over the belief that these two will bring about more games of the Modern Warfare 2 calibre. My only thought here is that Modern Warfare 2 was more than the work of JUST these two. There was a whole team of people working and it seems ridiculous to believe that the games entire success is due to the work of these two. Regardless, I'm sure Respawn Entertainment will push to have a product available ASAP, So we'll find out what their new team is capable of then.
[UPDATE] Sidenote: Activision have claimed the lawsuit with West and Zampella is "delaying pre-production of Modern Warfare 3"... that'll tend to happen when you're being sued for control of the brand.
