I don't put any faith in VGC pre-order numbers. They are almost always wrong.

I will wait for real world results before I make any judgment on the franchise dying. Should only be a couple more months.

Even Activision confirmed that COD pre orders are down:

They also say it is still on track to sell as well as past top performing titles. I wouldn't read too much into it just yet.
