COD2 on the PC was still the best single player experience IMO.

Off course it is. They have been working on this game since 2006. Already my ass :)

No they haven't. They had worked on CoD3 in 06 and were doing work on spider-man3 from late 06 to middle of 07.

Pre-production of CoD5 didn't start until Q3 of 07 with development starting on it late 07.

So you're wrong.

So many people here like you have no belief in the natural principle of edification. COD4 was an awesome game and one of the few games I plan to continue playing until I die, but just because the developers of COD3 Treyarch didn't develop that as well as Infinity Ward did for COD4, that doesn't mean that Treyarch can't adapt to changing software-quality conditions related to those games.

I think I'm probably the only one here who anxiously anticipates COD5.

Maybe its because they are making it for the ps2 and wii? We all know how multi plat games that are on all consoles turn out (unless they use different graphics engines)

like it or not people cod3 was a whole lot of fun online even better then 2 , most of the people here hating on it are the same people that take game score too seriously and have never played the game . Personally in pretty sure there not gonna flush this franchise down the drain like most people are saying and come release day everyone is gonna buy . Just remember kids all it takes to make a good game is a ton of money and not a brand name like infinity ward.

Pumping out a Cod everyyear isn't nessasily a bad idea.

What activision really do is start a new franchise, with Treyarch taking a new name for thier WW2 shooters. Something noble.

Also this game will suck monkey balls due to being a multi-platform game..... Wii and the PS2 will drag down the resources which should be going to the ps3/360.

Sorta of topic, this is why the Force Unleashed won't be GREAT. Pity.

The next COD game should be out in '09, but Activision is seeing so much green from COD4 that they're going to milk to series as much as they can. If that means they have to push out a COD every year then so be it.

Maybe, but Infinity Ward and Activision definitely put a lot more work and support into their game than say... EA?

Well if COD5 does flop, hopefully Activision will come to realize that the sales are in the gameplay and not in the title.

im waiting to see the reviews and the game play, and maybe play it my self before i buy it. wwII is awesome, but they killed it with this modern warfare. i dont see why they should go backwards, i played all the call of duty's since cod1 for pc, and i had enough of wwII it was good to bring it to modern warfare, they should keep it up.

10 - This is
The game that I'll be comparing to R2 and Killzone2. We'll see if Treyarch learned any good lessons, I doubt Activision with it's new merger will allow anything less than stellar. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if we hear down the line that Infinity Ward, is involved with the title in some form or fashion. That would make sense if I were executives at all three companies. COD is just too huge of a property not to get right.

CoD3 I believe averaged 83 on Metacritics.

And as a developer just eyeballing the scores I say they average in the low 80's. with their only 97 score being for a port of Tony Hawk 2 for the dreamcast.

Not to mention their portfolio is alot more diverse than most.

Ya and i mean games quality is soo represented by metacritic average maybe you should stick your head out of your ass.

COD3 was good not ass good as COD2 or COD4 but it was a hole lot of fun and it's way better than nothing.

12.2 - "you guys have no faith in this game. "
No. we have no faith in TREYARCH.
Going back to WW2+developer w/lousy rep=99.99% chance of a sh_t sandwich.
Betcha you're gonna see this game discounted by $10-$25 dollars at BestBuy & CircuitCity one month after it's released.

Before the game starts it should come w/ something like one of those FBI copyright warnings, only it should read:
"WARNING - ANY EXPECTATION OF ANY ENJOYMENT OF THIS PRODUCT IS PURELY COINCINDENTAL & SHOULD NOT BE SEEN AS AN ANY INDICATION OF THE DEVELOPER, TREYARCH ,POSSESSING ANY TALENT WHATSOVER.
FEDERAL LAW PROHIBITS COMPARING THIS GAME TO THE STANDARDS SET BY THE PREVIOUS INSTALLMENT IN THIS SERIES."

*NOTE: Ubisoft also should use that warning on any Splinter Cell games developed by Ubisoft Shanghai.*

COD4 is the best online fps experience so I dont think Activision will stuff up COD5. COD4 Is a AMAZING game so I think COD5 is going to be the BANGER.

20 - its not about the team , its about the money
think about it people , before Bungie the halo franchise they made a game called Oni (back in 2001)and it was one of the worst games ever (did i mention that the game was published by Rockstar ???)
Seriously people none of you know if the game is gonna be anygood , its not the studio that counts its the team at that current moment , the money put into it and the time Vs size of team .what infinity ward did with 4 wasnt some sort of magic tied to there name , there where good conditions for a good game to be made and it was made

Look at other big name games that sucked...They sold great and got their scores nicely boosted when they shouldn't have.
