I dunno, there are ways to look at it:

- Yes, I agree, they were bringing in huge money and should have been coddled, but at the same time they were employees. Any employee hanging up the phone on their boss is going to be in a world of hurt
- The E3 demo was a contractual thing with Microsoft. Missing that would jeopardize millions of dollars Microsoft was paying towards the development. I'd say yes, if you promise a 3rd party you'd have an E3 demo ready for them in exchange for millions of dollars then your game would be worse without it
