Poor David Kim. What? You don't know who he is, and why you should feel sorry for him? He's the man who has apparently revealed to the world that Call of Duty 7 is in development, which means his head is probably rolling around on Treyarch's carpet right now.

"I am currently on my second title as a senior animator in the games industry with Activision / Treyarch on Call Of Duty 7", Kim's LinkdIn profile reportedly told the world.
