We have tragic news to report from the world of gaming today.
Vincent Zampella — the tech executive who was best known as one of the architects behind the Call of Duty franchise — has passed away.
He was just 55 years old.
News of Zampella’s death comes courtesy of Los Angeles NBC affiliate NBC4.
According to early reports, Zampella was killed in a single-car accident on Southern California’s Angeles Crest Highway.
The head of Respawn Entertainment and the former CEO of Infinity Ward was driving his Ferrari when he suddenly lost control and struck a concrete barrier.
According to the California Highway Patrol, one passenger was ejected and later died at an area hospital.
The driver died at the scene after being trapped inside the vehicle, which was engulfed in flames.
“For unknown reasons, the vehicle veered off the roadway, struck a concrete barrier, and became fully engulfed,” said the California Highway Patrol in a statement issued Monday (via Deadline).
“The passenger was ejected from the vehicle and the driver remained trapped. Both parties succumbed to their injuries. It is currently unknown whether alcohol and/or drugs were a factor in this crash.”
Zampella co-founded Respawn Entertainment in 2010. The studio was acquired by EA in 2017.
Respawn is best known for the video games Titanfall, Titanfall 2, Apex Legends, and STAR WARS Jedi: Fallen Order.
Zampella was widely regarded as one of the gaming industry’s greatest success stories.
Across social media today, fans from around the globe are paying tribute to his beloved body of work.
“Vince Zampella had one of the most legendary runs in video games. Anything he touched turned into gold. His loss will be felt deeply in this industry,” wrote one X user on Monday.
“Nah, man. Not Vince Zampella. We lost a fucking LEGEND. Shocked ain’t even the word,” another added.

Barry Manilow is opening up about his diagnosis.
After a recent bout of illness, the music legend underwent further testing.
Doctors discovered that he has cancer.
There is both good news and bad news, Manilow told his fans and followers.
Music legend Barry Manilow is sharing his cancer diagnosis
On Monday, December 22, legendary musician Barry Manilow marked the second day of winter by sharing some rough news on Instagram.
“We just finished five great Christmas concerts at the McCallum Theatre in Palm Desert,” he began.
The 82-year-old acknowledged: “This marks the seventh time we have done these charity concerts and raised millions for nonprofit organizations throughout the Coachella Valley.”
Manilow then wrote: “As many of you know I recently went through six weeks of bronchitis followed by a relapse of another five weeks.”
He continued: “Even though I was over the bronchitis and back on stage at the Westgate Las Vegas, my wonderful doctor ordered an MRI to make sure that everything was OK.”
“The MRI discovered a cancerous spot on my left lung that needs to be removed,” Manilow revealed.
“It’s pure luck (and a great doctor) that it was found so early,” he acknowledged.
Manilow then affirmed: “That’s the good news.” Unfortunately, that is not the end of it.
“The bad news is that now that the Christmas A Gift Of Love concerts are over,” he continued, “I’m going into surgery to have the spot removed.”
Manilow shared further good news: “The doctors do not believe it was spread and I’m taking tests to confirm their diagnosis.”
He is hoping for an easy recovery
“So, that’s it,” Barry Manilow announced. “No chemo. No radiation. Just chicken soup and I Love Lucy reruns.”
He was a kid when I Love Lucy first premiered. Many people find that their “comfort shows” stem from childhood.
“The only follow-up is a month to recover,” Manilow revealed.
“And,” he explained, “that means we have to reschedule the January arena concerts.”
His post includes a lot of information on the rescheduling.
“I’m very sorry that you have to change your plans,” Manilow expressed.
“Just like you,” he assured, “we were all looking forward to the January shows.”
Manilow continued: “And hate having to move everything around.”
These rescheduled dates include stops in places like Orlando, Tampa, and even Columbus.
Those who are already ticket-holders will be able to repurpose those January tickets for the new dates.
Catching cancer in stage 1 is a best-case scenario
Cancer is never good news.
But catching cancer in stage one and having the financial means to undergo life-saving surgery before it spreads or causes any detectable pain or symptoms?
That is about as good as cancer news can get.
Barrow Manilow is a living treasure and a cultural icon.
We wish him an uneventful surgery and an easy recovery.

Welp. That was awkward.
On the latest episode of Sister Wives, Kody Brown somehow thought it was a good idea to revisit the past and apologize to ex-spouse Christine… while sitting with both her and her husband, David Woolley.
At one point, Kody told the couple that he’s sorry he ever acted like a victim and sorry he ever claimed he didn’t love her.
Again, Woolley were there at the time. It was very strange.
Amid the awkward conversation, David asked at one point if he could perhaps offer the father of 18 some words of wisdom.
“Can I give you a little bit of advice? Just a little bit? Start with your kids,” Woolley, who has eight children of his own, suggested. “Show that part. Because the women have moved on.”
David went on to tells Kody “your kids still need to heal and that’s the part that you need [to work on],” adding that despite “butting heads” with his own sons and daughters as part of his own healing journey with them, they came through it stronger on the other side.
Just a few weeks ago, Kody admitted he’s been an absentee father.
The guy barely has any relationship with his adult kids… but he took extreme exception Sunday night to Woolley bringing them up in the context of his mea culpa.
“I’ve set a boundary with my kids and I’m setting that boundary with David and Christine,” he vented via confessional. “My whole purpose here is to apologize to Christine. Not to David. Not to anybody else.”
The reality star continued as follows:
“I don’t care what you think. I’m here to apologize and I don’t even want to be reminded of that because it will bring me back to an angry place.”
During the actual back-and-forth, Kody handled things in a far more gentle fashion.
When it comes to repairing things with his children, the polarizing former polygamist told Woolley: “There’s an effort I’m already making and reaching out.”
Kody also made a point to defend himself and blame his kids for their estrangement from him, as he has in the past.
“Those deteriorations happened as a party, not as an individual,” Kody told David. “My bad experience with my children and their pain comes from an experience that we were in together, not that they or I did something wrong and offensive.”
The narcissist emphasized that he remains open to reconciliation — or at least communication of some kind.
“I’m willing to have the conversation. I’m willing to hold space. ‘Dad, you did this, you did this, you did this.’ I’m willing to hold that space,” he said.
For her part, Christine very much wants the six children she and Kody share to know they can rely on both their parents.
“They need to know that it’s completely fine to hang out with him,” Christine explained the camera, hoping to encourage their children to work toward genuine reconciliation and growth in their relationships with their father.
“They need to go have fun with their dad and not just sit and have a meal and have a conversation.”
