@PhatSeeJay: yeah I am only interested to find out how Infinity Ward and the hoard of other Activision devs allegedly working on it make out with this game. I have no desire to play it. Last one I played was MW2 - which I rented, played the 5 hour campaign, and returned - but well we are in the minority alas. It will be a juggernaut again - sigh.

Ah, the yearly tradition of shitting on Call of Duty over the internet, followed by tens of millions of sales.

Gotta love gamers.

After buying the last three CoD's, I gotta say I'm out. Will probably play this when it's like $15 or something, but no more for me.

I have played every COD game except for the original and WaW... and you know what? I really enjoy them. The "It's popular so it sucks" attitude everyone has towards it really grates on my nerves. Basically, I'm a fan of the series.

That all being said, I have absolutely no expectations for this game at all.

No seriously I hope this call of duty fails so we can move onto a new type of game. 

Actually, I just hope BF3 wins the day.

I hope they really up the ante in this one, after playing Black Ops and going back to MW2, MW2 feels really old and obsolete. I've put hundreds of hours into the multi for MW2 and it's just unplayable now after having so much fun with Black Ops.

Also, all the BF3 comments are tired. I freakin' love BFBC2, but the two games aren't really comparable other than being military fps games. BF is semi-realistic, CoD is just pure arcadey fun. It's possible to like and anticipate both games, also know that if you're getting the console version of BF3, PC gamers will shit all over you, there's so much hate when there's so much room for these games to stand side by side.

Bunch of opinionated morons ruining a golden age of FPS action because they're too narrow minded to enjoy different things.

What? No, I think those on forums mostly like shitting on the recent CoD games and actually do avoid them. But gamers are not just those on internet forums who complain about MW3 and evangelise BF3 like it's some sort of religion. Gamers are the masses who buy the CoD games because they enjoy them. They're not fucking idiots because they enjoy something.

Theres nothing here... well apart from the name. What's the point, to confirm the new logo? I guess that and the game confirmation, but really, I think it was inevitable.

I'm intrigued. I haven't played a single CoD game though it's still been entertaining to watch the franchise from a distance unfold, blossom and garnish a never ending flurry of hate . Still very curious to see if all those predictions that this 'may be the one that'll finally mix up their formula' will turn up true.

If you don't have the dignity to demand improved content as the years go by, willing to pay the same full price for the same game being rehashed over and over just because others are doing it, you're an idiot.

if you don't have the brains to notice that the once magical industry of video games where you could find any concept, theme or idea, actually being used and tried in videos games, turn into a generic innovation-less competition fest because COD is having smashing sales, you're an idiot.

look at the world pre-MW :
There was Battlefield 2, considered one of the greatest most sophisticated online FPS games of all time
There was Crysis, a game that went against the current by being a PC exclusive, pushing technology to the limit, and creating a charming living world consisting of a tropical island + big mountain terrains
In addition to many, many games that could actually be distinguished by just gazing at their screenshots

now look what's happening: Crysis 2 crushed the fucking fans of the series by turning into a COD clone. Battlefield 3 went multiplat and is having "we're lowering the threshold" as it's motto, etc..

I'm not a COD hater, COD1 was my very first 'serious' shooter and i loved it, i also enjoyed COD2, and MW and W@W are also both quality products that i enjoyed single and multiplayer
but then i purchased MW2, and i noticed how this series is now designed to shit on us. i paid 60$ for the PC version and all i got was MW1, except it had minor tweaks.. did i just pay full price for those tweaks?

and then i happily pirated Black Ops, and i wasn't mistaken. it was more of the fucking same.

it's time to try and make a fucking stand, because video games as we know them are getting disfigured by the explosive existence of Call of Duty.

Hey, guys. How can you all hate a game based on this tiny teaser? I want Vince Zampella and Jason West to come out on top of Activision in their conflict too, but I would never hope a game fails or is rubbish. Black Ops really wasn't bad without West and Zampella too. Being tired of a style of game doesn't make every game in that style terrible. You know what? Whilst I doubt this will reinvigorate gamers tired of CoD, I'd be willing to put money on this being in the top two critically well received 'modern conflict' games this year.


Also, putting numbers into words sucks, but I doubt the developers did that. This is marketed at the casual audience who maybe like that stuff? Plus, I'm sure a large percent of CoD players have it in their gamer tag/user name.
