Kotick ‘bluffing’ on billion dollar WoW claim, says former EA man

March 1st, 2008 @ 22:33

Lars Buttler, formerly the VP of for global online at EA and currently the CEO and co-founder of Trion World Network, has called out Activision boss Bobby Kotick on his assertion this week that it’d take a billion dollars to compete with WoW.

“Nice try Mr. Kotick. We understand that Activision has to defend its merger and scare competition - but I have to call his bluff,” Buttler said. We couldn’t be more impressed with what Blizzard has started but WoW is just the beginning; it’s pretty wild to suggest that there’s only one team that could ever realize the potential of the connected era - and that there’s no one out there that can deliver, no matter what the investment.”

Words of Warcraft. We kill ourselves. Really.
