    Adam Orth no longer with Microsoft

    http://m.neogaf.com/showthread.php?t=538053

    Game Informer has learned from sources close to the matter that Orth is no longer with Microsoft. A call to Microsoft's main switchboard confirmed this fact. Our sources, who wish to remain anonymous, suggest that Orth resigned in the wake of last week's events. We haven't been able to confirm whether this was a voluntary or forced resignation.
    I'd say its something to do with him breaking his NDA - in grand fashion may I add.

    People seem to forget that EVERYBODY can read everything you put up on twitter and facebook.

    He tweeted a few stupid things, but he stood by them 100%. He enjoyed telling people off about that stuff, knowing it would piss the general public off. In my opinion, he completely deserved this.

    I would agree with you if he had tweeted some stupid tweets about his personal life. However, he essentially released a press release that went against his company's policy and plans. Then on top of that, he acted like a total ******. He doesn't deserve to work there anymore with that lack of professionalism.

    It seems people have a way of filtering themselves out of the industry.
