sure...

 

Anyway on topic:

This news doesn't surprise me at all. You might need to take a look on this:

Call of Duty 3 - developed by Treyarch - released on Wii

Call of Duty 4 MW - developed by Infinity Ward - not released on Wii

Call of Duty WaW - devloped by Treyarch - released on Wii

Call of Duty MW2 - under developement by Infinity Ward - no release on Wii

 

For all those who are dissapointed from that move, here's a thought of mine:

Call of Duty 7 - under devlopement by Treyarch - release on Wii        !!!!!

 

I wonder why Activision seems to only trust Treyarch with Wii development...

It has absolutely nothing to do with Activision. Treyarch has no problem with developing for the Wii, Infinity Ward is a bunch of arrogant cocks and they won't do it. Activision just doesn't care enough either way. Simple as that.

To this day I have not been able to find one negative comment towards Wii from IW.  I don't know why so many have the idea that IW doesn't like Wii.

And from those at IW I have spoken with they like the Wii quite a lot.

 

As for which consoles get the game, that is purely and completely, 100% the decision of Activision.

I agree.

Call of Duty: World at War was only a crappy port and it still sold over 1 million copies.  I think a quality non-port of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 could sell over 2-3 million copies.

@Lordtheknight: I'm not assuming anything, so go ahead and think whatever you want. Some people were 100% sure it was coming despite no one ever saying that, so it's their disappointment for believing in things that are highly improbable from the get go. I wasnt pessimistic I was just realistic.

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

I agree.

Call of Duty: World at War was only a crappy Multiplatform release and it still sold over 1 million copies.  I think a quality non-port of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 could sell over 2-3 million copies.

Fixed. You don't have to like the game, but it was not a port.

I didn't have full context, so it just looked like that to me.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

@trestres

After a game sells over 1 million copies, you expect a sequel. Thats realistic expectations.




trestres on 16 July 2009

Yes, but E3 passed and not even a hint. So it was unreal to expect it after E3 was over.

So does this mean 360 exclusive, as Activision is talking about dropping PS3 support?
