Having been shown the door last year, Jason West and Vincent Zampella, co-founders of Infinity Ward have had a court date of May 7th 2012 set for their royalty claim against Activision.

The pair were acrimoniously dismissed amid allegations they were in illegal contact with EA, so along with the plaintiffs claim for $125m (£80m) in Modern Warfare 2 royalties, their former employers have counter-sued Zampella, West & EA for $400m (£250m) claiming that EA attempted to poach the pair.

While we hope the little guy wins, we don’t rate their chances against the throbbing multidimensional behemoth that rules from beyond the ultraworld. Ian
