    Don't support this guys, come on.  
     
    If you buy this game you are telling activision you enjoy buying small iterations to the same game every year. You enjoy paying $15 every few months for a few maps. You support the idea of a $100 a year for a game you still need to buy every year.

    I'm not going to buy that game but that is just because I don't really like what Activision is doing with the franchise. If you like the series though I'm not going to convince you not to buy it.

    It doesn't matter what a few people do. Millions will buy this game regardless. Even if every member of the GB community boycotted this game its not going to make a significant enough dent in publishers wallet for them to notice.

    Don't worry. I learned my lesson with Black Ops. I will happily rent the game, play for a few hours then move on to the next one.

    I have no problem buying CoD games and enjoying them for what they are. If you don't like them, you're right, don't buy them. Why would you?

    I don't think that the Giantbomb community or any other internet gaming community for that matter will change the fact that it'll sell just as much or more then Black Ops.

    I refuse to treat CoD like some social or political war among gaming fans.  It's ridiculous.  I will rent it for a run through of the single player like I always do.

    For many reasons. I have bought games simply because my friends bought them and I wanted to play with them. I have bought games to support a certain developer. I have bought a game simply to see why a certain franchise is so popular. There is many reasons to buy a game other then the fact you enjoy the game.

    Screw you. I enjoy the games and I'll buy it if I want to. 
     
    You know, I feel like WoW is a big waste of cash for all those who play it but I'm not trying to constantly act like a Jehova's witness or something and preach about the dangers of continuing a WoW subscription like so many are trying to do with MW3.

    Why haven't you made the same thread for Halo? Or Killzone? How are those games any different than CoD when it comes to iterations?

    Ok, fair enough. It still not like you accidentally bought a game though. People already vote with their dollars. If they want the game for whatever reason they will buy it. If they don't, they won't. Who are you trying to convince?

    Not sure really, you ever get really frustrated with people or the masses, and there is just no way to unleash it? I guess venting on forums is a bad, but effective way of releasing frustration.

    It still blows my mind that $60 once a year is a huge deal- for the people out there that only play these mainstream games, that $60 is going to last them a lot longer than something like LA Noire- and I'm sure that after a full year of the same game a refresh in the maps, weapons and story is nice.

    and Madden, and Guitar Hero, and Tomb Raider...and a million other titles. CoD is the biggest fish in the pond because everyone buys it, because everyone plays it. Just like Madden, just like the Wii (circa 2007) things are popular, things sell a lot. Deal.

    Not quite, dont you think COD stepped over the line here? Many of the  "features" of the sub are things that have been free for years. The stats tracking? World at war had awesome stat and game tracking online. Free DLC maps? PC games have had free map packs for years. Building groups and clans and ladders online? Again, this has and is being done all the time in many PC games. Maybe there is some more overhead bringing some of these features to console, but what activision is attempting to do is dam arrogance.

    In all honesty it's pretty ignorant to completely disregard a game because it says Call of Duty or Activision on it.

    not what im saying at all. I LOVED MW1 and World at war, I even bought MW2, but I just don't support what there doing to this franchise anymore. Infinity ward didn't support it either.

    Anyways, if they were to put out a map a month or a few at a semi-regular rate, I could see this working. I'm not really a fan of CoD, but it would be neat nonetheless.

    Guitar Hero's DLC is way overpriced...but that is a matter of your opinion. The one thing you are totally missing here is that all your friends are going to buy CoD, even that douchy guy Ted at your office that talks about the Red Sox incessantly is going to buy CoD. Activision knows this and they are selling you it. Kind of like Madden you have to buy the new one to play with your friends. 
    At the end of the day this is a business and Activision is doing a better job than any other publisher out there. You may hate on CoD but whatever game you play sucks in comparison (business-wise).

    @Truant19: It seems prick-ish to hate on someone for succeeding. The CoD games are big sellers well thought of critically and constantly played online. Can't see why you're mad. 
     
    It terms of the subscription thing...be pissed at Microsoft for forcing you to pay $60 just for the opportunity to then pay Activision $100 for a subscription fee. You want to talk about rackets Xbox Live is a racket.

    You are right, people need to show publishers and developers what they want out of video games by only buying games they feel are worth the price tag.
     
    I just don't think we have enough information about this particular game to have good judgement on its potential value.  I think it is just as relevant to tell gamers to be reasonable with their expectations and judgements until enough information is known to render such opinions.

    Remember when we did this last year with Black Ops, and everyone bought it anyway? Yeah, that.

    It doesn't matter what a few people do. Millions will buy this game regardless. Even if every member of the GB community boycotted this game its not going to make a significant enough dent in publishers wallet for them to notice.
    True it will definitely be a big money maker like it is every year, but if for once it doesn't surpass the previous iteration in how much money is made off of it, Activision will take note, and there would be a bigger chance of innovation.
     
    I haven't bought a call of duty since MW2 and I don't plan on buying one again until I see some kind of significant innovation in the series. (I am considering renting just to see the modern warfare story through to the end but that is the farthest I will consider going.)

    I'll stop buying them when they start to degrade in quality.

    its not about enjoying the game its the fact that activision is milking it so hard and running the franchise into the ground.  it'll be another tonyhawk or guitar hero which is sad. 
     
    they need to realize that they cant just rely on a product name and keep selling the same game
