Activision: Modern Warfare 2 was always ready for the 'Call of Duty'

14
The fact that "Call of Duty" branding was conspicuously absent from Modern Warfare 2's debut trailer and all subsequent promotional materials about the game seemed to declare clearly enough that the title had left the franchise's well-fortified nest. A fact that Activision seemed to acknowledge by telling us it "has taken on such a life of its own."

1.1 - I agree about Activition
But I really want this game to own IW deserves it and Iwant to play an other great game.

The only thing I don't like about Activition is their CEO, who Howard Stringer (Sony Corp. CEO) basically laughed off the other day. With him gone, I think it would be a better company.

They should put one of the Blizzard guys in charge.

I'd rather have a new Call of Duty than a new Jesus Christ. A new Call of Duty wouldn't go about the middle east stirring sh!t up.

More like "Always ready" when they found out no one had a flying clue what the hell Modern Warfare was.

Call it what you wanna call it, just fix those annoying mistakes from COD4 and give me longer campaign, and I'm buying.

bollocks they only added the cod name when they realised or surveyed that a lot of more casual gamers know the call of duty name but would get confused if it was just called modern warfare2 and they dont want to leave anything to chance as it will probably be this years biggest selling game by far
