That's a great question. No, I don't think so. You throw a rock and talk to a developer. You throw a rock at GDC right now, you'll hit three people who worked on Call of Duty. We had people here yesterday making indie games that have obviously nothing to do with Call of Duty or first-person shooting, and they worked on Call of Duty at some point.

And I'd imagine that that gives you such a great working relationship with teams and a project that big to then take the, the hope would be, of course, at least for me and all the studios we've seen fail, is that you've been a part of a giant team before.
