EA COO Peter Moore announced that the Medal of Honor franchise has been put "out of the rotation".
"The game was solid, but the focus on combat authenticity did not resonate with consumers," EA COO Peter Moore said. "Critics were polarized and gave the game scores which were, frankly, lower than it deserved. This one is behind us now. We are taking Medal of Honor out of the rotation and have a plan to bring year-over-year continuity to our shooter offerings."
EA Labels president Frank Gibeau said EA missed the mark, and the marketplace, with Medal of Honor: "We're in a hit-driven business where it's about what you can build in a certain period of time and really deliver for the marketplace, and frankly we missed on Medal of Honor. And we take responsibility for that."
Well, at least that's one less modern gritty brown FPS on the market. I hope this doesn't mean yearly Battlefield releases, unless they get working on a new Bad Company. Although, I guess whatever Respawn is working on is going to replace MoH.
