Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
 
The Black Ops thread is crowded enough as it is, so I'll make a new one for this, since the train is officially rolling now.

Came out today that it'll be getting a "June reveal". No clue if that means E3 or if Activision will have their own thing, or both.

I wish they would just go back to WWII.

But I'll probably end up getting this. I didn't get Black Ops, so my COD quota is a bit low.

I loved the look of MW2 but feel the game play of COD BO is much better. Hopefully there will be a combination of these in the new game.



if the PSN ever fucking works again that is.

This. They need to branch out.

I would pay a disgusting amount of money if they would just remake COD2. With better graphics and small stuff like sprinting, of course.

MW2 was decent. Infinity Ward tried way too hard to make it an action spectacle. The story was weak and multiplayer was unbalanced.

I'm hoping they really listen to the critics (much like Ubisoft did with Assassin's Creed) to make MW3 just right.

But Treyarch really set the COD bar high with Black Ops.

Battlefield 3 will blow it away, obviously not sales wise, but the game itself will be much better.

The problem is, WWII isn't branching out at all. Even if every shooter on the 360/PS3 until the next generation of consoles come out were modern-era shooters, the bulk of shooters on this generation would still end up being WWII titles. Just an ungodly amount of them came out in 2005/2006/2007. I think you'll see the remaining CoD titles on these consoles be Modern, and then in the first 6 months of the new consoles, you'll get a WWII CoD from one of the major three studios (IW/Treyarch/Sledgehammer).

On PC definitely, on console, probably not by much at all.

I see what you mean, I just want them to release a WW2 era one now because they've really maximized the xbox/ps3's potential. Compare a game now to one from 05 or 06 and it doesn't compare in quality at all.

Right, definitely. Just saying that with good shooters being on, at minimum, a 2 year development cycle, they would've started back in early 2009/late 2008, which is right about when the WWII fatigue started wearing off.

So I think it's possible to start seeing them pop up soon, but like I said: if the consoles are right around the corner, they might time a great, genre-defining WWII game for a launch tie-in. So Infinity Ward/Sledgehammer/Raven Studios are doing MW3 this fall, and Treyarch will almost certainly have something fall 2012. But it's entirely possible that MW3 finishes off the MW storyarch, and then IW's November 2013 release is free to be whatever, and they could do a WWII game, especially if Microsoft's new console out fall 2013. It would hypothetically launch on the Xbox 3, Xbox 360, PS3, PC, and Nintendo's new console.

MW2 was good until christmas then the 12 year olds got it and exploited it and the fact that it was so unbalanced and IW didn't give two shits about fixing it makes it last.
4 was magical

On the fun scale:

CoD 1: October 29th, 2003
Finest Hour: November 16th, 2004
CoD 2: October 25th, 2005
CoD 3: November 7th, 2006
CoD 4: November 7th, 2007
World at War: November 11th, 2008
Modern Warfare 2: November 10th, 2009
Black Ops: November 9th, 2009

Really? What could possibly make you think Q4? :lol

Also, without looking it up, CoD4 through Black Ops were all announced in May/June, although I think one was April.

Obviously the 2nd Tuesday in November is their favorite date. However, the 2nd Tuesday of November this year is already the release date for Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, and Battlefield 3 appears to be coming out a week before. Modern Warfare is a huge franchise for Activision, but after the IW shakeup, and the lack of support MW2 got, they've set themselves up to be the weak dog in the pack. Which is weird to say about the highest selling franchise ever, but it's the reality. The brand is down a lot right now, especially with it being well known that IW had been solely developing MW3, but then Sledgehammer and Raven had to come in to finish it.

The PS2 for me was so durable. Everyone i knew had one and they usuallly lasted for ever. SOCOM 2 was fucking intense. People were amazing had it

PS2 actually had a remarkable failure rate. Not as high as the first two generations of the 360, but yeah, it either lasted forever or died in the first few months. Really weird console.

Black Ops campaign stinks, love the multiplayer though.

I'll probably end up buying this. Just because I'm a sucker for it.
