Even I, a somewhat serious gaming fanatic, have never finished he campaign of CoD Black Ops and that campaign is supposed to be four hours long. At the same time, many of us bought expensive head sets just for this game (I wasn't serious enough to buy MW3, btw). Communication was a big deal. Community was very important. The size of the screen was VERY important. A bigger screen meant the difference between seeing the enemy or them seeing you. No doubt that the Vita is more than capable of running an adequate CoD. My bigger concern is if it will offer anywhere near the kind of experience CoD players expect. Will we be able to talk and understand what's being said? Will we feel the explosions? Are the Vita analog sticks responsive enough? Are people willing to play the Vita version over Wi-Fi (3G? NO WAY.) when the console version is likely right there? |
I think it definitely has a good chance. VITA comes with a built in mic, it can do Cross game chat and it's capable of cross-platform play online (with PS3). This needs to be a focus point on the marketing for COD on Vita. Most casual gamers (The COD and Madden/FIFA bro type) go into a store and pick them up, all SONY needs to do is get that bitch in stores on PSVITAS so the bros can see it on that sexy OLED screen and play it for themselves.
2-3 million maximum, unless it's well-designed to provide something distinct from the console experience that is also compelling

You've got to predict the answers to those questions in order to get your answer :P
I think it's pretty much guaranteed that this will be either a brand new CoD only for Vita, or something with full cross-play with PS3- the developers are very excited about it.

~~~~ Mario Kart 8 drove far past my expectations! Never again will I doubt the wheels of a Monster Franchise! :0 ~~~~
they only way this will have a real big impact is if its Black Ops 2.. ONLY on Vita. while everything else gets a different new cod game..
that isn't going to happen
but il say it will sell 2.5mil
I dunno...CoD was on the DS and it didn't really sell that well. If this is a 1:1 port of its PS3 brother then yeah I can see it selling in the millions. But I mean absolute 1:1 no features omitted unlike with MLB The Show, Modnations and Fifa Soccer.
Even though its too early to say, my guess is that if they release it this year then I'd expect 1~2m
Next year could be 2~3m
if it comes this fall it may be tied to this years console COD release.
if the Vita version supports online play vs console this could sell very well.
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
- George Orwell, ‘1984’
Portable vs. Console mode should just be called "Rape the guy using the Vita" mode. No L3/R3 and no second set of shoulder buttons AND a much smaller screen?
