Surprise! Pair of Midway execs leaving
A pair of high profile executives at beleagured video game publisher Midway has announced plans to jump ship, just a few weeks after Shari Redstone – daughter of super-mega-rich Sumner Redstone, the largest shareholder of Midway – took over as Chair of the Board. Thomas E. "Triple Threat" Powell, executive veep, CFO, and treasurer, has left Midway to take a job with another company (Atari?) while Steve Allison, senior veep of marketing and chief marketing officer, will be leaving but will remain with the company in an advisory role until March 31, 2008. Our advice: sell more games.

Maybe they're leaving because they're not selling many games. But even though Area 51 didn't sell well, at least they have unreal tournament 3.
Hopefully they don't join atari the company's near death.
