I AGREE, thank you finally see's CoD the way I see it. overused,overrated and overplayed

This is pathetic, its gunna turn into the SIMS where a new game comes out every 2 months.

 

[Jaggededge]

yes i agree their are a mass number of cod games comming...nothing will beat cod4 though

A new Sims game doesn't come out every two months, those are low-price expansion packs that add new features to the core game. Sims 3 only came out not too long ago.

A better analogy would be closer to the huge dump of Guitar Hero games that come out seemingly back-to-back.

EDIT: Fun fact, Guitar Hero is also owned by Activision.

I don't really see what the big deal is.

Cod games have been coming out every November since 2004, it seems to be a pattern. Therefore, MW3 would release November 2011 (most likely).

The games are addicting, fun, and most of the time (depending on what servers) are full of great people. But, everyone is entitled to their opinions.

I don't think COD is overrated. Until people stop buying it and making activision even more richer then they actually are that's the day they will stop making COD games. It's exciting that there bringing out new COD games. I loved the cod4 and mw2 campaign alot and im really excited on how they carry it onto number 3. Although i think early 2011 is kinda to close to Black ops.

Hm. What other series are owned by Activision? I'm starting to see a pattern with them...

COD is a bit over rated, but still pretty good. But, I'll just wait to see how this does before getting it. I think I'll like Black Ops better.

 

[featherfoot07]

I'm looking forward to Black Ops, This is a title that many of us Long time CoDers have been waiting for. Now, MW3 will be a deciding factor for me. I loved Modern Warfare, the second had a great campaign. The MP for the second one got old -- quickly. I get tired of twelve year olds yelling r*pe and PWN every five seconds. Or loud rediculus arguments.

We'll see....

Has no one mentioned Battlefield?

1942
Vietnam
2
2142
1943
Heros
BC1
BC2

And yet CoD is 6 released games, but yet theres too many some say... As long as the campaign and multiplayer is good most people will continue to buy them...

EA Games and Activision have 2 things in common, they both own a huge titled series, BF/CoD... and they both want money, so if the games are selling then make more...

As to CoD MW3, I want it for the storyline... they still never captured that Russian guy that shot you after the airport level...

**SPOILERS*** SPOILERS***




The Russian guy is with the general that you kill at the end of the game.
So im guessing mw3 will be finding him and killing him.

It's not about how many games there are, just the quality of those games and the timeframe in which they are released. Atm cod is heading in churning out a game a year, which really dosen't leave much development time..

 

[PewPewBangBang]

one game a year is about average for a game like call of duty.......Halo has had about one game a year.....gears of war is about a game a year

A lot of the new games that are bound to have sequels come out about every year

Anyways......COD is overrated, COD 4 was good but it wasn't that good....airstrikes every 2 seconds was annoying as crap.....modern warfare 2 was completely overrated. The game was fun for like less than a month, then it just became like crap and dumb to play, received a much higher review score than it deserved i think.

Battlefied Bad Company 2 is much better IMO....game is amazing, some of the previous games were pretty bad though.

Anyways, COD black ops could be a hit or miss.......treyarch isn't terrible but they aren't great either and black ops will either be amazing or bad. We'll have to wait and see.

Lots of amazing games coming out this september/october etc.....halo reach (looks amazing), COD black ops, Gran turismo 5, etc...

oh boy. seeing this thread was a bad idea for me, because i am a CoD fanboy.

The CoD series went downhill seriously fast after CoD4. Despite what anyone will say, World at War was created with the express purpose of making Activision and Treyarch more money. In an interview, a head Treyach exec said (in paraphrase) "we made WaW b/c demographically, WWII FPS games make the most money." As a result, it was terrible. No disrespect meant to the WaW part of the CoD division, but that game is just plain bad.

Then MW2 came. I thought "oh good, IW is back on the scene. hopefully they fixed all the parts about CoD4 that were broken."

Nope. They masked them with a more arcade-style gameplay and an even more broken game. I own every CoD game, going back to the original CoD on the PC. I have CoD2, CoD4, WaW, and MW2 for the xbox 360 and CoD, UO, CoD2, and CoD4 on the PC (i no longer own CoD3 because it was physically painful to be in the same room as that game, especially after the awesomeness of CoD2, my all-time favorite FPS). I will never play any CoD game other than CoD2 or CoD4 because MW2 and WaW have ruined it for me. As a result, my xbox has not been on in about 3 or 4 months. I refuse to play broken games made by once-great, now-ruined developers for the express purpose of making more money. I really hope the guys fired from IW because of pressure from Activision (big surprise, they didn't like the direction the CoD series had taken either) create a new game developer company, because no game with the CoD/IW label will be the same, at least to me.

Well, it felt good to get that off my chest. I won't be getting MW3. I have no interest in it anymore.

 

[Neurofo]

I'm in the exact same boat as you are in gingertonic. I just don't own any of the console games, except CoD3...and I feel the exact same way about it.

I really, REALLY want MW3 to be good, I just can't see it being that.

I love CoD, easily may favorite game franchise. But I think with the MW, MW2, and MW3, they need to move onto something else, with a much better story line. Action and adventure... You've got to be kidding me, that's worse then WaW if this is true.
