Quotes
"Still, whatever Activision does tomorrow, and however irrelevant it might be today, its legacy was etched in alabaster over two and a half decades ago. Activision will always be the first third-party company, it will always have started the movement for individual recognition, it will always have been on the forefront of the argument for games as human expression. That it never got to complete its mission, and that it's taken twenty years for us to find our way back, is beside the point. In the end, its founding principles will outlive even the company itself."—Edge, 2006Edge: A Short History Of Activision (August 24, 2006) -
