Call of Duty: World at War will beat Gears of War and Resistance 2, insists developer.
Activision-owned developer Treyarch feels its latest Call of Duty title will top the likes of Gears of War, Far Cry and Resistance 2 to become the must-have shooter of Christmas.
World at War is the sequel to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, which topped the Christmas charts last year and is still the most played game on Xbox Live. And Treyarch's senior producer Noah Heller insists that fans of that game will not be disappointed with the follow-up.
"There's a lot of competition this year, but I feel very strongly we have the best shooter this Christmas," he explained. "There is a lot of people new to the Call of Duty franchise following COD4, and they won't be disappointed.
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.
sounds like Treyarch are scared for low sales. I dont think COD5 will sell more than 3 million when we have FC2, Gears2, Res2.
you dont i am in the beta on the 360 its a slower paced call of duty 4 with boring weapons the color palette will hurt you eyes after playing this then playing the resistance 2 beta im definitely getting resistance2, this game dosent hold a candle to gears2 or resistance 2 or far cry 2 for that matter
Not if Resistance 2 has something to say about that
ign RFOM 2 95 % GEOW 2 easy get in the mid 90's
whos hyped for this ??
sony fan boys, will all get RFOM 2, and xbox boys GEOW 2.
If this was Infinaty Ward, maybe be hyped for it.
sorry this is not one of the big games this christmas.
Fable 2, GEOW 2, RFOM 2, LBP, Dead Space, prince of Persia, Fallout 3, Far Cry 2 and Mirror Edge all the games this fall that most are hyped for.
COD5 not a true successor, to COD4 not till COD6 comes out then where talk.
Nathan Hale and Marcus Fenix says Hi to generic unknown main character:P
Joke's apart I doubt it will sell as well as COD4. COD4 set the standard for multiplayer shooters. You can't argue with that and COD5 is just kind of an expansion pack to that. WWII weapons killed this game for me. After playing COD4 i just can't go back to WWII weapons. Plus with multiplayer shooters like FarCry2, R2, Gears 2, Socom and online games like LBP. I doubt anyone will have time to play this game like people play COD4. R2 will be the most played game on PSN until Killzone 2 comes out and same is the case with XBL which will be ruled by Gears 2 until Halo Recon comes out.
