	GeekStreak - Spark Unlimited Sues Activision (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		In March, independent studio Spark Unlimited, developers of Call of Duty: Finest Hour, announced that it was splitting ways with long-time publisher Activision, and had signed a deal with Atari to develop games on the next-gen consoles.
		Rumors abound as to why Spark and Activision parted ways, but now it's pretty clear that the relationship was ugly as hell: Sparks attorney's filed a lawsuit against Activision seeking $10 million in damages and compensation, as well as an injunction preventing the sale of Call of Duty: Big Red One.
		Spark also claims that Acclaim charged Spark $1,882,920.97 for Finest Hour's multiplayer implementation, rather than provide the necessary funding, which was deducted from the first Finest Hour royalty payment in March 2005.

		Dame Muriel Spark, mistress of ambivalent irony, thrilled her fans with a rare public appearance at the book festival in Edinburgh, the city she still calls home, despite having lived in Italy for years.
