This is odd.

I guess they're milking COD to make up for less Guitar Hero games this year.

My head is exploding right now.

So, an action game with more cutscenes?
 
If it ain't got puzzles, it's no adventure.

wow this franchise is getting raped.

wonder what the new CoD game will be?

noooooooooo

I don't care

COD is now forever ruined

So I guess they're not even trying to hide the fact that they're milking the Call of Duty name for all it's worth? That would almost be refreshingly honest if it weren't so damned reprehensible.
 
Interesting times, people. Interesting times.

Ok. great. :|

Activision is dead to me.

Nooooo, it burns us!

My fellow video game players, please remember this when you're thinking about dropping another $60 on a game just because it has that "Call of Duty" name attached to it.

they are getting into a really bad trend...

Seriously?  I'd like to have heard the business meeting where that idea came up.  What kinds of idiotic yes-men are they looking for at this point?

I don't want anymore call of duty, ok?  Stop making them.

Yay! Greed in America!!

The next COD game will be titled:  Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Adventures in the Land of Nyroth: 3.

Action-adventure COD...uhh.. what..?

I'm just waiting for the subscription supported World of Warfare next.

Hmm, i don't like where things are going with this really.

I'm not even surprised.

Well, the Bombcast will be extra entertaining tonight...

Wow, this is big news right? 
Whats going to happen to the Call of duty franchise now...

Pro Tip for developers: Do not sign with Activision.

Sounds like Activision are doing what a publisher does, trying to market a highly popular brand in as many ways possible to ensure maximum profits. Simple business.

You know what?
 
This is good news.
 
Activision blew it with Guitar Hero.
 
Activision is in the process of fucking up Call of Duty. 
 
Activision is just going down a death spiral.
 
The question is, are they going to drag Blizzard down with them?

LOL.  That's all just LOL.

I hope we get Modern Warcraft too.

internet agrivations aside.....you know this game will sell, the general public soesn't give a shit what a developer or publisher does, most people think WaW and Modernwarfare two are made by the same people. People like us will no that these games will suck but the general public will be like "i like call of duty why not by these other game that has call of duty on it" its sad but they will continue to do stuff like this because it makes money.

Thank you so much Activision for ruining an awesome franchise....

i think this is looking like call of duty over kill and nobody really cares about COD if  infinity ward isn't making it . Also i think they are blind with money that this is going to bite them on the ass , when people get tired of modern warfare what else does activision  have other than what blizzard  is doing . 
 
 
GOD THEY ARE IDIOTS

Goddamn it Activision: stop being so greedy. You are going to kill the videogame industry. Stop flooding the market with a million iterations of the same franchise! You should have learned your lesson from Guitar Hero.

They can suck my tiny, hairless peepee if they think they're going to do to me with Call of Duty what they did with Guitar Hero. They'll be bleeding this dry, milking the Call of Duty cash cow's udders until they erode away. They can fuck off, honestly. We aren't stupid. By getting rid of these two head honchos (which we still don't know 100% why, so I'm still on the fence about it) and announcing all these new games and genres for the CoD franchise at the same time has left me with a sour taste in my mouth. 
 
I'd buy a map pack or two, aye, but: 
 
- A new game developed by Treyarch? No. 
- A new game developed by Sledgehammer Games? No. 
- Paying per month for online play (which has been touted before, and this 'new business model' reeks of that)? No. 
 
Activision: piss off.

I don't really mind this. I think I've played enough Call of Duty so I don't mind skipping the next one.
 
It sucks that the heads of IW got fired though, wanted to see what that studio would do when they weren't making COD games.

" @baconbits33: Wrong Company. We're talking about Activision. "

Uh oh. Looks like Call of Duty is going down the same path that Guitar Hero and Halo went through once the suits got their hands on the license instead of the original developer.

" You know what?  This is good news.  Activision blew it with Guitar Hero.  Activision is in the process of fucking up Call of Duty.   Activision is just going down a death spiral.  The question is, are they going to drag Blizzard down with them? "

point and click please

All I want is friggin Call of Duty: Zombies. Treyarch, DO IT!!!! Cause it looks like this is your last chance.

Christ, that's right, Blizzard is tied to these lunatics. WHAT IS GOING ON!?

WTF is activision thinking o god cod getting more over saturated every minute
