I love Call of Duty and I will be buying this on day one. Wonder why this game will sell so much? Just look at the amount of comments on this video.

The Call of Duty franchise has been incredibly successful commercially and critically with a very active and large player base that spans over several demographics. It is currently the biggest name in the video game industry.

You don't have to like it, but fucking deal with it. Stop judging people because they like a goddamn video game.

Infinity Ward with the MW2 teaser and now with this have provided video games what they so sorely lacked, an answer to movie's words flying at the screen trailers.

Protecting Washington DC kind of seems like the top so going back to protect AM3RICA seems weird. Although I guess with the 10th anniversary of 9/11 coming up, protecting New York from terrorists will probably be a popular thing or at least get media coverage.

So now there are 3. Am3rica, 3ngland, and now G3rmany. 


The marketing behind this is smarter than I thought.

The only inference to be made at this juncture is that MW3 will not be an Infinity Ward joint.

I agree, people haven't capitalized on 9/11 as much as I'd expect. This might be Kotick making up for that accidental gesture of human decency.

You might not be far off. Going by the Russian at the end.

"One, Destroy the enemy's hope of victory" (Am3rica)  
"Two, Use everything to your advantage." (3ngland)
"Four, Attack them from an unexpected side." (G3rmany)

I have to assume that there will be one that ends with Three.

In another two years we'll see a return to 4MERIC4.


Lets be honest, this franchise is going to keep selling. There will always be a new group of 13 year olds who beg their moms to buy them the newest Call of Duty game. Guitar Hero got old, CoD won't. Although I'm not really looking forward to MW3, the MW games have been the innovative games in the franchise, and if IW announce something new and game changing, I might be in for another installment.

The only thing worse than fratboys are people who judge and are generally hostile to those that like a particular video game.

I have truly enjoyed Black Ops but I'm ready to step off this bandwagon. Hopeful BF3 is fresh and a different experience.

it's just MW2 teaser replaeced by a 3.....seriously, not looking forward to what Activition is going to do with this title...IW is gone, I am losing faith that Activition will come up with something good, instead i think they will just use existing things to make another game without any improvement.


P.S. the story is gonna be lame...

Hmmm, so let me get this straight.  People are hating because, the game sells well, it is yet another game in the series, the use of the 3 in America, and a Teaser, yes a teaser teased the game?  I really see no hate for the game itself...

did this trailer do nothing for anyone else?

I mean I personally loved modern warfare (the first one)  and did alot of positive/revolutionary things for the FPS genre on consoles in general... But damn really?

I dont know what there gonna do for this game? I mean what else can they do in this same damn setting  atleast for the online portion i think MW2 did what the majority of what you could get out of for a sequel for this without making the same damn game (i did not like MW 2 that much alot of its balance and the whole killstreak creator almost ruined it for me)...

I mean i dont even know what guns they could add at this point or perks, ETC.

And im not really rooting for BF3 either i saw that game and to me its just BF with preety graphics meh

i think people are hating because the teaser feels downright lazy i mean if your gonna even copy your big reveal from your last game thats spouse to invoke hype and get people pumped for your next game i mean its sorta just downhill from there...

(I do not hate MW hell i loved the shit out of the first game (second was mixed)  )

LOL, COD fanboys are hilarious. It's like listening to a religious fundamentalist try to defend themselves from being labeled batshit insane.  If it hurts your feelings that your taste in games is questioned because you've bought for and paid full price for the past 2 rehashes of this franchise, deal.  Your taste do suck and you're free to buy and enjoy the game.  Just don't be butt hurt that people who aren't sold on the bandwagon hype of 'oMGz best G4M3 EV4R! AM3RICA F'Yeah!' point out that it's recycled shit. Playable shit, but still a turd-fest.

Heh...marketing... Oh yeah Activision made sure their name was on it too. Nowhere do I see ANY of the developers logos.... I'm voting with my money this time. I've skipped out on Black Ops and sad to say even though I might want to see how this game ends myself (despite reading the spoilers), I think it's high time that I stick with my guns and NOT buy this game, too. 

I want Battlefield 3 to come out now. DICE you have not failed me before so you guys better make the game play as awesome as your visuals.

Huh, didn't expect a trailer this early. I guess Activision feels pretty confident that the Respawn lawsuit won't take the Modern Warfare brand from them.

Here we go again. 


Also I don't see why people have to bitch and whine so much, no one's forcing you to buy them. Obviously people still buy the games and for most hardcore CoD players a new game with a few tweaks and a bunch of new weapons and maps is enough. 

Me though, I'm sticking with the Battlefield series.

I think I'm done with Call of Duty type shooters...I'm bored to death with them.  I'm gonna go play Half Life 2 again and enjoy a great shooter I've played through a dozen times.

People need to stop being little whiney baby's when COD comes out. Yeah, it's getting a little bit tiering, but I don't see where the lack of quality is? People just love to hate on what is popular I guess.
