Ok, and I thought GH5 was enough. Seriously now if people actually buy the next GH game something is truly wrong. How many GH games can one person buy!? GH5's improvements were so little I thought GH5 would be the last

LOL, and people will buy it all over again. U guys call it milking, I call it being smart. Why would Activision NOT produce more if they KNOW it'll sell like hotcakes? People who buy COD and GH over and over again are raping THEMSELVES. Activision doesn't put a gun to ANYONE's head, they just make the product available.

Activision is a business FIRST, remember that and ull understand why Activision isn't at fault here. If u guys wanna point fingers, point them at the gamers who make the choice to keep buying milked franchises cause in the end, there WILLINGLY doing the buying.

Ever heard the phrase "Give the people what they want." Thats all that Activision is doing. Seeing as how Modern Warfare 2 is the most pre-ordered game in Gamestop history, it seems that the vast MAJORITY of gamers don't mind what Activision is doing. I pre-ordered Bad Company 2 today after hearing about the beta and the Gamestop guy was shocked that I had no interest in pre-ordering Modern Warfare 2. So yea lol, milking or not, MW2 will be huge.

Anything shocking, quite the opposite, all of us know this always happen and is proportional to the franchise sales and overhype

So, the more people buy COD, the more the franchise is milking and the less of quality is get in the process of develop It

"I call it being smart. "

I call it short term investment. Both franchises are gonna fail miserably in the coming years. Once that happens Blizzard games will be next.

They are effectively showing business students how not to run a company.

And people will still keep buying it every single year.

Jesus Christ man. Can't we all just grow a backbone and not buy their stuff? Are we as a community that weak?

Let's just hope the natural progression of these things is they slowly get better and release a new risky IP and a great survival horror game. Kinda like EA.

God, I don't even think EA was this bad though...

kikicub - 54 days 7 hours ago

11.1 - actually...

I think Treyarch has done a better job than the guys at Infinite Warts....I mean, they added some variation, just a little. I still hate the floating feel of it.

Personally, I would love to see what Treyarch can do with the modern twist. [EDIT] Especially if they get to keep a console, dedicated servers, lean, etc. on PC[/EDIT]

[EDIT 2]I don't know where to click to agree AND disagree with you. My original comment is a disagree about Treyarch. I agree on screwing Activision. I have never played any of the Guitar Hero games and was planning on getting the latest one for christmas. Guess what? I think I'll be getting Rock Band 2 instead...[/EDIT 2]

dear god...like honestly...why is activision allowed to do this? Why do idiot gamers continue to fuel their half-assed attempts at making games, by FREAKING BUYING THEM? I honestly wasn't expecting another call of duty for at least 2 years, but dear god... I'm willing to bet good money the graphics in the new call of duty will be the same as it was in 2007. Unbelievable

because whenever people raise the issue and want to do something about it... You have clowns posting comments about how it does not matter, we ( the ones who want to make a difference and a stand ) are in the minority and they ( the masses of lemmings feeding this crap ) are still going to buy the crap regardless.

As long as they keep buying... activision will keep throwing this crap at us !

Anyway, I am not supporting activision anymore, I am not contributing to this crap.

Well, with the CoD Series..

I know people don't like buying almost the same game every year..

But, when it comes to Call of Duty..

If Treyarch and IW are switching off on CoD games..

Then that's a 2 year dev. cycle for each game.. It isn't like they are taking 1 year to throw out a similiar game.
