it will sell more...much more

why though? people are realizing it's the same reprated stuff, whats so new about this than the previous games, bar the short story which could be done in a day ?

i know, but people will but it because it's CoD the "harcore game for harcore gamers..." I'll just post the same thing I said in another thread:

the PS3 and 360 sales combined increase yearly about 20-24 mil,( really rough estimate) now when a person buys a system they usually ask their friend for recommendations, now COD being the huge franchise/seller it is, the chances of that person having atleast one copy will suggest it or it's latest coming title, thus the chance for the franchise growing.(assuming previous owners buy along with new coming owners)

this idea hit me as I was in gamestop and a bunch teens walked in talking to one of they're friends(who seem to recently have bought a 360) to get call of duty: black ops, and also talked him into pre-ordering MW3
