Forums - Gaming Discussion - Sledgehammer-CoD is not CoD8, two CoDs in 2011

http://computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=237449

The just-announced Call of Duty spin-off by Activision startup, Sledgehammer is not the series entry announced for release next year.

Clarifying yesterday's CoD-ageddon - in which Infinity Wards bosses got the sack - an internal Activision memo (obtained by G4TV) stated that this year's Call of Duty will be made by Treyarch and next year's by someone else (possibly Infinity Ward). Sledgehammer CoD game is something else entirely.

"2010 is expected to be another big year for Call of Duty," said CEO Mike Griffith in the memo. "With Treyarch developing a new title for fall release, Infinity Ward's downloadable content for Modern Warfare 2 in the works now, and a new Call of Duty title expected to be released in 2011."

"In addition," he added, making the distinction between the two games clear, "Sledgehammer Games is in development on a Call of Duty title in the action-adventure genre. It's an exciting time and it's the right time to ensure the appropriate resources are there to support Call of Duty's growth."

There you are then, hopefully that clears everything up.

Okay, Activision have officially gone mad. They stated in their recent financial report that screwing up any of their big income-generators could hurt their business, and now they are milking Call of Duty.

>_<

2010: Treyarch is making COD (Wii-make of COD:MW2?) + IW is making DLC for COD:MW2

2011: IW is making new COD (apparently, COD:MW3) as well + Sledgehammer is making COD action-adventure spin-off

Did I get it right? ^_^

So impatient you are, Activision are probably busy creating more Guitar Hero games and trying to figure out how WoW is actually risky.

Give them some time

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD THINK OF THE COWS!!!!!




(stop milking this franchise already Activision)



Unicorns ARE real - They are just fat, grey and called Rhinos

WoW past it's peak, their only healthy franchise to be milked to death, their other franchises already over-milked and dead, is there anything positive in Activision's future?



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.
