Well everyone,
After plenty of coronas, tortilla chips, and of course… scotch :-) I'm back from my unannounced trip to Treyarch Studios this past Thursday & Friday in Santa Monica, California.
A couple of things first, special thanks goes out to JD 2020 (Community Manager, Treyarch Studios) as he was the one who made it all happen, as well as the rest of the team at Treyarch who participated in the event (most notably: Robert (PR), Rich (Design Head/Guru), and Mark (Studio Head = The Man)). Once I have the full roster including titles, I will make note in a subsequent post.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.
2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.
A very devoted fan of Call of Duty: World at War racks up incredible in-game stats while playing regularly for the past 15 years.
Of course you will hit a ridiculous stat after 15 of anything.
My main character for Everquest had over 500 days played in the first 6 years of the game. I was young then and had a lot of time on my hands. I don’t think I could duplicate that again until I retire and not sure I could match it if I tried.
Gamespot : Call of Duty: Vanguard launches with 20 multiplayer maps, three of which are actually remakes from 2008's Call of Duty: World at War. Let's take a look at how the maps have changed with this side-by-side comparison.
people should keep an open mind with this game
People need to stop hatin' on this game because it isn't developed by Infinity Ward. Atleast you guys are positive which is a breath of fresh air, everyone else is complaining about this game.
To the complainers: You haven't played the beta, demo OR EVEN SEEN A TRAILER YET, and you still continue to bash it. Give Treyarch a chance. You all make Call of Duty 3 to be the worst game ever, when it was far from it. It was the weakest entry in the series but a good game, none-the-less.
I agree with Rich1631, Call of Duty 3 was NOT a bad game, it just wasn't up to the same standard as the others in the series.
I suspect that Call of Duty 5 will be a very good game. If it turns out to be a "great" game, than all the better.
No wonder CoD 3 wasn't up to CoD 2 standards...it was developed in 8-9 months!
I must say that is quite impressive, but now they have 2 years with CoD 5.
Perhaps I need to open my mind even more.
I think I can handle one more WWII game ;)
