.....bugger

i dont think Infanty ward are doing COD5

"Speaking in a conference call today, Robert Kotick, chairman and CEO of Activision, said: "You can expect virtually every one of those properties (its 10 multi-million unit-selling franchises) will be exploited on an annual or close to annual basis.""

kissthestick:

Correct, they will continue to alternate the CoD games with Treyarch.

Blizzviz would be better?

cod5, woot I can't wait for that

Please, not fucking Treyarch.

So CoD 5 will have Night Elfs and Orc's in it I'm guessing?

errrr, sky is blue

Any news on FIFA 09 yet

I plan to move to Rock Band before GH4 comes out.

Maybe they'll take inspiration from my "Call of Duty 5: Zombie Warfare" forum thread

I second smoothpete - the last *good* game Treyarch made was Spider-Man 2. Surely Activision must realise the void of difference between CoD3 & CoD4?!

And haven't they learned from the demise of Tony Hawk that churning out yearly updates will kill off even the biggest franchises?

Why keep releasing new GH games instead of updating the ones they already have with more content? That's all people really want, and that's what Rock Band is going for. No thanks, I'm going to stick with Rock Band.

Call of Duty 5: Medieval Warfare

Don't you love gaming execs who refer to games as "franchises to be exploited on an annual basis"? I sure don't.

Infinity Ward will never be able to pump out a CoD game every year, so it makes sense to alternate between two teams.

Likely there will be good ones (IW - CoD 2, Cod 4) and cash-ins (Treyarch - Big Red One, Cod 3). As a PC gamer I'm happy just to get the Infinity Ward games, as seems to happening at the moment.

OMG, I can't think of anything worse! It's like the video gamign equivalent of West Life or the Sice Girls.

Wake up people!

I don't think Treyarch have done a bad job of the fill-in CODs, multiplayer in COD3 was pretty good fun, and the cutdown console versions like big red one were far from poor.

However a return to a more honest naming system might be in order, with only the major releases given the numbers. At this rate its going to start soudning silly soon anyway, Call of Duty 6: Attack of teh Sequels!

Haha... do they need to be confirmed? I mean, will EA be doing a FIFA game next year?

COD? And you're excited? Fancy playing the same FPS with different outfits each time? I guess that's why Halo sells. FTL.

I'm praying for 'Call of Jehuty' - military might vs OTT Japanese fighting robot thingies.

Bring it on!

Wow never saw this coming!

Peej

More of the same then. im getting quite bored tbh. originality is the key, why dont they take risks with new games? its the only forward. nintendo know this.

Pulsar: Way to fail, sir. Try actually playing the games.

Well this business model never did EA any harm. Kills all imagination tho. This industry needs new IPs :P

Its so 'de rigueur' to slag off Treyarch, yet many who do so have no clue as to the situation Treyarch were put in by Activision. They were given an extremely short development time, yet they still managed to create a game that included a class system (with air support, medics and ammo resupply) with in-game upgrades; a new (and popular) gamemode (War); new weapon types (rifle grenades, anti-personnel mines, cooked/sticky frag grenades); vehicles (tanks, bikes and jeep mounted MGs); 24 (yes, 24!!) player MP with little or no lag (something CoD4 cant even do with 12) and well designed maps that could actually cope with that amount; sprinting (try going back from CoD3 to CoD2 and see how much you miss that...so nice they put it in CoD4); online splitscreen; online game selection (not let the game randomly put you in a game..usually half way through as in CoD2/4); Ranked leaderboards....all this on an outdated game engine (and CoD5 will be using the same, all new, engine used in CoD4.

Yeah, this game sucked, and yet it was still being played by massive amounts of people (never had a problem finding a game of any type) more than a year after its released. Oh, yes, I almost forgot...it didnt have the Toys-R-Us sniper rifles of CoD2 and didnt allow you to sit in a corner camping....probably the real reasons why a lot of people didnt like it.

Uninspirefest!

Sometimes I wonder if I’m in the minority when it comes to hating Treyarch. I haven’t been to a COD forum for sometime now, last time I was on one everyone had just found out Treyarch was making COD5 and they were expressing their disgust not only for Treyarch but for WW2 as well. Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 is going to own,simple as that. It was pretty clear the community wanted another modern warfare, I wonder whos idea it was to basically say FU to the community and make another WW2 theme against the majority of our wishes? Modern Warfare ... geez
