^I don't even need a trailer. I would just like to see some new screens and i don't think that can be too hard for them to do. Something to convince me this isn't just a cheap cash in on an excellent game.

How about it can't be, because ports are not cheap. You have to do the entire ******* game code over again for the new system.

Now it is for the money, this is Activision that owns the series of course, but it's not going to be cheap.

I'm aware of how a port works and i was using cheap in the figurative rather than the literal sense. Nonetheless there is a continuum of quality even for a port where additional time and money spent on programmers, assets and the like can improve the final quality of the game.  COD:MW is a big name and thus this game should sell ok regardless of the quality so there could be the temptation for Activision to do this game 'on the cheap', so to speak.

We know that this game should look at least as good as WAW and until such time as i see screens that demonstrate that level of quality I am going to question the extent of Activision's investment in the Wii version of this game.  There are just too many questions surrounding the announcement, release and initial media for this game to allow me to get excited just yet.
