It's impossible for them to ignore the success of MW2 and the demand for MW3, MW3 in 2011 for sure.

Well MW3 of course, followed by MW4 and 5. As long as Kotick is CEO, COD will continue being pumped out year after year.

This isn't a diss or a fanboy comment but I thk IWs next project may be a PS3 exclusive. Thk about it. How much more juice do ya thk they can squeeze out of the 360? With the exception of Guerilla Games, no one can touch IW as far as the best developers for shooters. If IW wants to compete with Killzone 3, I thk it may be best to use the Cell and the Cell only.

When Bad Company 2 comes out, EVERYONE will have to step up their game. For me Bad Company 2 will do for FPS what Uncharted 2 has done for TPSs.

@1.1: It's more likely that November 2010 will see a Treyarch release. Either World at War 2 or they go down the futuristic route. I guess we'll find out around March time.

I really do hope this game becomes reality. It would be great if they made a 3rd mw, made it a trilogy, then left it alone. For one I would hate to see them ruin such a great franchise by producing it WAY to much, secondly some of the greatest entertainment things have been trilogies, the original halos, lord of the rings, the matrix, ect. So a third and final mw would be really nice.

Why would it be innovative? Following the formula means going the madden approach and just updating perks.Cod is now just a casual fps that satisfies the pub scrubs.

"well if they can innovate in modern warfare 3, then why not."

To be honest, I don't think there's that much more innovation to be had in Modern Day Military shooters this gen. At the moment, I think there's a greater possibility for innovation in a Futuristic Call of Duty game that's set like 10 or 20 Years into the Future.

My idea for the next COD game would be: Call of Duty: World War 3 :)

Sure, there's no such thing as WW3, but Infinity Ward could create their own vision of WW3.

7.1 - Exactly
But frankly, I don't think they can fix the damage done with 2. Their best bet is to milk this franchise dry before people become clever and stop buying their rehashed games.

I think MW3 will feature "dial-up" style online and 2 vs 2 players. It'll cost 99,99$ and will have a free sticker in the case (well, it'll be missing from most cases, but hey, only those who'll call will actually receive it).

Also, it'll be pay2play.

because IW said that the reason they didn't make another WW2 shooter was because they didn't feel like they could put something that hasn't been seen before.

halo 3 and GTA4 ring a bell?

and i do agree with you. when these very average games sell the way they do, it just paves the way for these devs to continue the mediocrity (as in MW2).........and in activisions case - to charge MORE for it because they know the sheep will pay.

16 - this becoming gamefaqs here
Its all well and good that some people don't feel the game is worth the money because they are rehashes. This is something thats happening with all types of entertainment. Movies,TV and yes games and there will always be people that cannot get enough of there favorite entertainment. That being said MW2 did improve on somethings and thats all you can really ask for in a sequel make it better than the last one.

edit: http://oxcgn.com/2009/11/12... good read on what direction we are pushing games.
