This success would ultimately lead to an uncomfortable parting of the ways. The show will be written by Tim Bissell, who has scribed video games in the Gears of War, Uncharted and Battlefield franchises. The Masters of Doom TV adaptation is part of the USA Network's upcoming thematic season, which will look at various Americans who succeeded in making it big within their chosen industries.
