Yup, why waste money on stuff that won't get you more sales? I still think that CoD looks might impressive given its 60FPS, and at this stage in the generation, I would wait for next gen before a new engine, it just isn't worth it for yearly games |
I completely agree that they should wait for the next generation at this point, but I disagree with your other points. The Black Ops II reveal trailer left a lot to be desired for me. When you have games like Battlefield 3 and MoH Warfighter pushing fantastic new technology, BO2 just looks bland and old.
It doesn't matter financially though. BO2 will sell more than BF3 and MoH:W combined, and Activision will save themselves from truly growing stale by developing a new engine for next gen.
