Activision has just announced that a new Call of Duty game will be released this fall. That’s right. This very fall season Treyarch’s Call of Duty game will be unleashed upon the wallets of holiday shoppers. Treyarch developed Call of Duty World at War. There is also word that another Call of Duty game is in development by Sledge for release next year.
Hope you like Call of Duty.
With this seemingly shovelware like release schedule its not a matter of IF but WHEN and how long it will take for the masses to burn out on the Call of Duty franchise. This whole mess makes me think of the Madden games and how the yearly releases dampened the excitement for the franchise because the new Madden release was always around the corner and each release was only marginally better if better at all.
With Halo Reach, and Killzone 3 around the corner this should be great news for those studios. I personally welcome those releases. Call of Duty seems to be headed the way of Hip-Hop. A slow and painful death because of corporate muckity mucks.
