Modern Warfare 3 is not going to be able to replicate the brilliance of the first two games. The King of the FPS is going to fall. Here is why.
Former CEO describes lawsuit filed by Swedish pension fund as a "collateral attack" on Activision Blizzard.
Kotick Made $155 million from MS in the buyout, the little b*tch needs to stop whining. Thanks to this Microslop deal and massive industry consolidation thousands upon thousands of devs and other workers lost their livelihoods. This greedy piggie pervert needs shut up and f-off.
Windows Central: "The money may keep rolling in, but Microsoft is the custodian of one of the biggest selling video game series in history. If something doesn't change, I fear we'll reach a breaking point and irreparable damage will have been done."
In my view, they should probably merge MP with Warzone and essentially make it free to play like Halo Infinite. The campaign/zombies mode can be $30 yearly DLC. I know this would be insanity as most COD players essentially pay the full price of the game simply for the MP. However-with a shrinking player base they may have to consider it. Making it free would bring in a ton of players.
To late MW3 should have been a lesson but here we are two years later with a steaming pile a shite called blops7
Nothing lasts forever, eventually something will come along to make people forget about COD

Halo killer once arrived and technically call of duty killer also arrived, its name is Fortnite
Call of Duty was riding the revenue horse and charts for ~20 years. Whether undeserved or deserved.
But I endorse everyone to remind you that Microsoft could have decided differently when they took it over.
The money was certainly there, and they could have taken their time revamping the franchise:
Current-gen tech, manageable microtransactions, not imitating Fortnite and returning to core values of the franchise's origin.
They didn't.
Let's see next year. Hopefully without the then 13 years old PS4 and One hardware.
Sledgehammer's first game was killed so Modern Warfare 3 could be finished.
I adored Battlefield Bad Company 2's Vietnam expansion. Sucks to hear this was scrapped for CoD. I haven't touched CoD since Modern Warfare 2 came out. (The original one.) I would have definitely checked that out though.
No such thing as horror when equipped with the type of weaponry in a COD game. 😂
I wish Activision pushed Singularity as much as they do COD. Singularity was an ACE fps. And COD isnt doomed to die, just slap a Moidern Warfare title on any half-assed FPS games followed by the number 3, and the zombie masses will buy it like their life depends on it.
lol so true
It won't be doomed, just boring.
The mp is crack though
"...currently ho-humming its way around Metacritic with a score of 77"
This quote shows everything that's wrong with video game reviews. The scores are way too inflated. Since when is a 7.7/10 "ho-hum"? Compare with Imdb. A 7.7/10 is a good score. An 8.0/10 gets you into the Top 250 movies of all time.
There are only TWO movies with an average score of more than 9/10. Which makes sense, considering 10/10 equals perfection. And nothing is perfect.
But video game reviews are different. Very different. AAA exclusives get 9/10 by default. Anything below 7/10 supposedly completely sucks etc.
Maybe this is what the franchise needs. A little reality check for the devs. You can't just screw around and release a crappy product just cause you know people will eat it up.
