Call Of Duty, In Need Of Help?


Submitted by UnashamedVandal; December 10, 2012
Within the first 15 days on sale, Call of Duty: Black Ops II created revenue of $1 billion worldwide and looked to be in full control of the gaming market. Despite these impressive figures, the title is said to have dropped as much as 20% on day one sales compared to Modern Warfare 3, which to this day is the world’s fastest selling game.

 

 

Regardless of the data released by Activision about their great sales early on, many gamers are beginning to wonder whether or not the franchise has already reached its peak and is on a slippery slope. In my opinion, I’d suggest that the game has a lot of life left in it, unfortunately the title is starting to feel slightly recycled and could use something new and innovative to get people talking about it all over again. Perhaps it could use with a slight re-invention, maybe replace the Black Ops or Modern Warfare section and bring in something new.

 

What do you guys think? Let me know your thoughts.

Most of the times i have finished the COD game's before they are official released :-* .
Black ops II, i don't like it that much, specially the command and conquer strategy like level in India.
I think Activison has the same idea, because you can skip this level if you have failed it.

If you want a real good shooter, take a look at Medal of Honor, it's that much better.

i think instead of black ops 2 they should have went with what hey were going to name it (iron wolf) so that all games made by treyarch would have changing names and infinity ward would keep the same name and just keep adding numbers
