I don’t care what Activision has been up to lately. This guy was responsible for great games and it’s very sad to see him go specially in such a horrible manner.

A person dying like this regardless of public opinion is still a sad thing. I’m praying for his friends and his family to have the compassion of God poured out upon them.

He was responsible for the childhood of pretty much everyone my age, this is awful, rest in peace. His story is absolutely amazing too, you guys should check it out

The man helped author our adolescent years. Those games can never be topped.
RIP

jfc what a horrific tragedy. I’m so sorry for their families and loved ones. I’m shaken just reading this and I’m just a customer of his projects.
He leaves an enormous legacy of industry defining projects over the years. Including this year’s major quality turnaround of BF6.

I hope the circumstances are investigated.

Damn, loved the hell out of his work. Titanfall 1 & 2?! Jedi Survivor and Fallen Order? Many of the COD classics? Wow.
Tragic end to a great game developer. RIP.

Yo I don’t care who you are, this is a terrible way to go.
Edit: wow someone down-voted me for saying this. Insane

He really had a golden touch with FPS.
Old COD, Titanfall, Apex and most recent BF6.
The Star Wars games were also good

What a loss to the golden days of COD. I have so much time played in MW2 (2009) and despite the most toxic game lobbies, I had a lot of fun with that game.
RIP

RIP a legend. It sounds like it was a high speed crash since the passenger was thrown. Didn’t Vince Z like high end cars?

Drove his 2026 Ferrari 296 GTS off the road.

I attended town halls that had him speaking and he was one of the better ones at EA.
I never worked directly for him, but he came off as a genuinely good guy.

Two Nickelodeon voice actors, Rob Reiner, James Ransone, and now him? Jesus.

The Miyamoto of FPS games. He didn’t invent them, but he perfected the formula.

Darwin Award winner Vince. Speeding incredibly dangerously in a Ferrari on a dangerous highway for internet likes. You’re only supposed to do shit like that on the track. RIP

Don’t drive like a fucking idiot and this wouldn’t have happened. Fuck this guy for putting peoples loves on the road at risk.

I wish the headline was more informative. It should say “Vince Zampella committed a murder suicide while driving like a fucking buffoon”.

Dude was responsible for a lot of if not most of the games I played years ago. Hopefully he wasn’t in pain as he died.

He is the reason Call of Duty blew up with Modern Warfare 1 and 2. Activision since then only recycles

Very sad news. RIP

RIP. Me and my homies spent thousands of hours playing Allied Assault multiplayer back in the day. It was a revolutionary game.
