Video game enthusiast Paul Iuzzolino writes on the expected Modern Warfare 3 sales, and how other major titles and the recent hacking with Modern Warfare 2 and Call of Duty Black Ops will have an affect on MW3 sales.
Bowling revealed some interesting details in a recent interview with Pu.nl that might make some fans very happy.

He is the asshole that broke up the great Infinity Ward that made COD 1,2 & 4.
I dislike Robert Bowling as much as the next guy, but he's not at fault for killing Infinity Ward.
Really? I find him to be really honest.
"He is the asshole that broke up the great Infinity Ward that made COD 1,2 & 4."
No one broke up Infinity Ward, West and Zampella were fired and that's how IW broke up
Activision is what broke up IW. They got greedy, didn't pay the royalties due to West and Zampella and fired them.

Soo Bowling might be getting his check raped?
I guess he is not there for the money?
Back to topic: Can't wait to see if they aren't just talking out of their asses and have actually made the game a lot better.
if they get the 3 killstreak system back i might buy at release day.
The gameplay itself will have to be good for me to even consider buying this. If it's another piece of crap with nonexistent hit-reg, 500 grenade launchers per match, maps devoted to campers, and ridiculously broken perks, the game can kiss my ass. Even if they fix it all I probably won't buy it.
just go back to cod 4 and do 3,5,7 none of this 25 nuke sh*t its pathetic and promotes camping
Isn't their playlists in MW2 to play this way, Barebones classic or something like that.
I never played Barebones so I might be wrong, but I think the only things you could play were Team Deathmatch and Free for All. If you wanted something else, you had to enable killstreaks.
Go back to COD4 style killstreaks PLEASE. Much more enjoyable MP experience. I die more from guided missiles, helicopters, and harriers than I do from gunfire. THATS A BIG DAMN PROBLEM.
Every fall gamers get the gift of new AAA games delivered just before the holidays. These titles usually start arriving in late September, and continue right through to the year’s end. Each year always appears to have "the best fall release schedule ever." This upcoming autumn is no exception, and has a November release schedule that according to Avault's Mark Turcotte, is second to none. The number of AAA titles arriving over a span of mere weeks is staggering. It has left Mark stumped as to why these games would be released in such close proximity, and has him putting money aside to buy them all.

''I was a big Call of Duty fan; the first game in the franchise blew me away with its intense action and focus on set pieces. It had more soul and power to it compared to its then rival Medal of Honour – it also had a more enjoyable single player and multiplayer experience to offer. The expansion pack Untied Offensive is one of my most favored first person shooters, it built upon the foundations laid by Call of Duty and increased the action to a new level. The opening sequence placed players right in the middle of the Battle of the Bulge and was the perfect example of top notch action, fantastic presentation and audio and an odd sense of drama and panic. The multiplayer was improved upon with the addition of vehicles, deployable machine guns and large maps plus a rank system. It was an expansion pack that was full to the brim with improvements and additions and in my eyes is a true classic. Call of Duty 2 took the action from the previous titles and polished it up which resulted in a more intense and gritty experience with a bigger focus on set pieces. While the multiplayer was still solid and played slightly better the overall experience (at least in my opinion) was not as good as United Offensive nor did it feel as deep. Call of Duty 2 was the last great action first person shooter set in World War 2, sure Call of Duty 3 came after it but it tended to feel rather alien from the rest of the franchise, and thus the next logical step was modern day combat.''
Finally somebody who actually knows cod the way i once knew itband feels the sameway.
Not forgetting the rolling credits were they thanks the fallen heros.
Not same game period. Cos it did feel intense it drew you in. It felt like a bloody war game too awsome games.
I loved the B17 bomber level, trying to fend the german fighters off was cool.
Also there were several part in Unitied Offensive where you manned a machine gun and literally panicked because so many soldiers were charging you.
good times, not sure where it went wrong :(
Think its was the devs . New recruits then testing the waters on call of duty 4,
Witch i beleave would of been ok if they didnt have perks.
But once it hit consoles i never had same feel of call of duty.
A lot, but obviously doesn't deserve any. It needs to go on hiatus and rebuild hype amongst the real core gamer that made it successful to start with.
HOPEFULLY Skyrim, Uncharted 3 and Mass Effect 3 will be enough to slow sales down a BIT for this years release.
You guys arent sick of cowadooty yet?
Uncharted 3 for me cod is in the gutter.
its probably going to be the best selling game this year but still wont sell as well as MW2 or Black Ops. The call of duty name sad to say is a gold mine even though there was never a "good" call of duty game since MW1. I already got my sights on BF3 and Uncharted 3 this fall so my needs are going to be taken care of
Call of Duty is going to sell more and more each year until one year there is a massive drop in sales.
