"Hey Ricky, what are you downloading?"
"Oh, what's up, Mitch? Check it out, I found a place on the 360 Dashboard where you can get the Resurgence Pack for $4!"
"Wow, that's a pretty great deal!"
"Yeah, the only catch is they're only releasing one pair of maps per week for $0.99 a piece."
"...But that equals eight maps. I thought they were only adding five maps to Modern Warfare 2."
"Well, the other only catch is that they don't work with Modern Warfare 2, because they're actually maps for Defense Grid that just happen to -- purely by coincidence, I'm sure -- be called the Resurgence packs."
"... I don't even know you any more."

A great game, in case anyone was unfamiliar with this. Plays a lot better with a controller than I would've guessed, since I already had purchased it off Steam.

It's funny, I can see from your point of view that the "coincidence" would be considered a good thing, but when we named it Resurgence last September we had no idea that any game, much less MW2 would also use that name. If we had our preference we would have changed to go with something else, but all the ratings work, artwork and everything was set when we learned about MW. It's a coincidence we actually didn't want. The same goes for for Awakening (Dragon Age) & Borderlands (Borderlands) which were named almost 2 years ago when we were under development. I think we are just (un)lucky in picking names that we think will be unique. Oh well, I think we do better on the game content, hope you enjoy!
