Modern Warfare 3 will keep selling like this until the next COD game arrives.

moho-foe4543d ago

They sell so much because they count the Wii, DS, PC, Xbox, and PS3.

IMO the DS and Wii don't even count...

StanLee4543d ago

How does that make any sense when consumers are spending money on those titles? Of course it counts. It counts to those consumers, and it counts to Activision.

@StanLee

Guess you didn't see his "in my opinion".

GraveLord4543d ago

The Wii and DS sales make up less than 1% of the sales. They are really really low. Not counting Wii and DS doesn't make a difference.

Justsayin4543d ago

It may keep selling but the last time i saw user scores on it, IT WAS ALSO PUTTING THE GAMING INDUSTRY TO SHAME!!!

Call Of Duty games are on a gaining trend. I am surprised by how many people I come across online that haven't played any other COD games in the past, you can tell because it lists all prestige's on your profile.

So that means even more people are getting in on the good times that are to be had by playing Call Of Duty. I personally only play the Modern Warfare titles, which means I only buy them every other year, same with Uncharted, Gears, Forza ect.... I prefer an on again, off again type of cycle.

CoD is the Justin Bieber of videogames. If you think sales = quality then that's pretty sad.

El_Barto4543d ago

Not exactly, Bieber doesn't get stellar reviews and thrives on tween girls for sales. Call Of Duty gets sales and great reviews and is one of the most competitive games around.

It's an MLG game, people play it to earn money, people play it for fun as well. If your trying to say Call Of Duty, especially the Modern Warfare labeled games lack quality, then I'd hate to see what you actually think is a quality game.

2pacalypsenow4543d ago

The Reviews are because of the Title 'Call of duty' its the same every year but reviewers say it good bam 9/10 but other games that don't change much they say o its the same thing bamm 7/10

El_Barto4543d ago

@2pacalypsenow

Don't hand me that old line, Call Of Duty has two very different developers, Modern Warfare feels so different then the Treyarch titles.

Modern Warfare is on a two year cycle, just like a lot of games, so please do a little research before you talk out of your butt.

Peace.

2pacalypsenow4543d ago

funny cuz black ops and Mw3 feel like the same game.....

Jobesy4543d ago (Edited 4543d ago )

Unless Justin Bieber is breaking every sales record while getting great reviews I don't see your point.

Btw, how do you measure quality? Sales? Check. Great reviews? Check. Repeat buyers? Check. Growing fanbase? Check. # of players online? Check.

Hicken4543d ago

Whatever happened to judging quality based on... you know, QUALITY?

Not saying CoD is a BAD game, but anybody with a brain knows it could and SHOULD be better.

Morons that allow themselves to be milked continuously by this company is the definition of irony.
Spend more $$ and you'll end up In easier lobbies so you win both ways when ya spend that cash

melons34d ago

Controversy in the COD community feels like it happens within an alternate timeline. Activision will take the piss with something, there will be a momentary fuss about it, and then they will forget about it and carry on anyway. Repeat this cycle literally every year for the rest of time.

Gridknac34d ago

They call that a crack head! Thats what this is really about, its an addiction. People who dont smoke cigarettes look and laugh at the addicts that spend $8-$10 a pack, but they cant help themselves, they are addicted. That same analogy applies perfectly to the whole MT industry. Only an addict that was not thinking clearly would spend this kind of money on something so frivolous. A round of multiplayer provides the same high a person gets from scratching a lotto ticket, or putting money on a sports bet. MT in general need to really be regulated because you have a generation of kids becoming adults who grew up only knowing the MT era of gaming. Its normal to them and they will in turn teach their kids the same by just being a gaming parent and getting their kids involved with them in gaming. Thats why no matter how ridiculous the headlines keep getting out of the MT industry, it never seems to fade or go away.

X-2333d ago

I'm so tired of hearing about what they're doing with this game, its never going to change and it's never going to value the consumer over money, furthermore the people who engage so heavily in the microtransactions I guess allegedly are having a blast and can't wait to do it some more this year when the new version of the game drops.

Cheech And Chong Are Coming To Call Of Duty Because Everything Must Be Consumed

The famous comedy duo is the latest example of pop culture becoming one big grey blob

Christopher49d ago

Certain to have some sort of reference to their online store for CBD/THC chews, which is advertising heavily online the last month or two.

Sciurus_vulgaris49d ago

The randomness of the multiplayer characters is one of reason I quit playing COD after briefly returning in 2022. We got Space Marines, rappers, tree monsters etc. all in a series called “ Modern Warfare”.

OtterX48d ago (Edited 48d ago )

I think if there was ever a time for a competitor to rise up and take away some of Call of Duty's thunder, the time would be now. A military shooter that takes itself seriously, not sold out to Fortnitism. Easier said than done, I know... but the time is ripe.

I can't stand this stuff either.

Palitera48d ago

There are tons of MP shooters that make no profit, if you're looking for one of those

fsfsxii48d ago

You guys have been saying this shit since 2009. Fortunately, nobody’s bringing down cod anytime soon, if ever.

crazyCoconuts48d ago

I agree. I really didn't like how the silliness takes away the gritty origins. That and all the crazy effects... dunno. I'm still playing it but I'd love for someone to steal their cheese and cater to grittier players

OtterX48d ago

@fsfsxii It's not so much wanting COD itself to die as it is wanting this silliness to die. Like CrazyCoconuts said, it takes from the grittiness. Many OG COD players want a straightup Military shooter experience, not silly costume time at Carnival.

is this what the kids want these days a pair of iconic stoners who were big in the 70s and have kind of held on I enjoyed their movies decades ago but I never recall the movie where cheech infiltrates a enemy base while chong snipes for support guess I must of missed that one

Man I'm getting to old for this

Knightofelemia48d ago (Edited 48d ago )

Cheech just looks so wrong in the picture.

Profchaos48d ago

Why just why. cod up in smoke

anast48d ago

They charge too much for a game that is kitsch.
