Gamertag Radio: "Take Two Interactive is getting sued by QA Tester. Read the full letter.
Take-Two has hired Perfect Dark studio head Darrell Gallagher and creative director Brian Horton to start a new studio under 2K.
Fired Rockstar Games staff have protested outside the UK offices of parent company Take-Two and developer Rockstar North today, denying accusations of leaking company secrets and calling for their reinstatement.
The fired Rock Star Games staff were likely at-will employees, which means they could be terminated by the employer for almost any reason. Doesn't make it right, but it is what is.
There is no such thing as this in the UK. You can never just fire someone for no reason.
The GTA maker claims its former employees had been "distributing and discussing confidential information in a public forum."
Keep in mind, designers like Jaffe started as QA Testers. These guys deserve proper treatment by developers and publishers.
T2 should be ashamed.They should be able pay a $9 /hr job without taking any lawsuit from that guy. Cheap Ass Mutha Fudger.
Think twice if you want to be a tester. I do this for a living right now and its not as fun as you would think. Try doing a progression test on an educational game for kids between the age of 4 to 7 for a week. If you don't drink, Oh boy! You'll start :P Thank god my company treats us well :)
Get that paper.
