thats why i dont buy acitivision published games or developed games. i never bought a game published or developed by activision and i never will.

They haven't always been an evil, money-grabbing corporation, you know. That only started around three years ago.

lol until they start publishing qaulity games i will keep what i think of. ps isnt MW2 identical to MW in singleplayer and multiplayer.

Are you implying that the early Call of Duties and Tony Hawk games weren't quality?

And no, MW2 is not identical to MW, any more than Uncharted 2 is identical to Uncharted, Gears 2 is identical to Gears, and ANYTHING 2 is related to THE ORIGINAL.

The word evil and corporation don't blend very well. All corporations are going to try and sap as much as money as they can from their consumers, that's their goal. It's really the consumers' fault for being such zombies. If nobody buys their products, they're definitely going to think twice about their strategies.

Activision takes it to a new level. They avoid games that won't sell like the plague (Bobby Kotick probably killed someone after Prototype's sales came in), Kotick has openly said he wants to take all fun and originality out of game development, and turn all series into over-milked franchises with iterations every year which sell millions.

He is a monster. I hope Gabe Newell eats him.

Yeah, but why do people buy these games still? Any company that sees the weak points of consumers are going to exploit it to the max. You really can't blame anyone but the ignorant consumers.

 

Edit: Bear in mind I don't agree with what they're doing either, and I would love to see Kotick get dethroned, but at the same time, you gotta realize they're a business, and they'll do anything to earn money.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

THIS IS SHOCKING NEWS!

How do you know that?

Besides, Halo Reach isn't a sequel, it's a spin-off.

All sequels are similar to the original, or they fail at being sequels.

It's not a spin-off, it's a prequel.

how do i know?

from screen shots and info they have given us. screen shots indicate a new health system perks like camo different weaponary and different story. from info is that its using a new engine built from scratch up :P. ps I never heard of a spinoff that has been in developement for 3 years, spinoffs ussaully dont sell very well so your saying that it will sell alot less than halo 3.

Spinoff isn't the word. But it's not Halo 4. It isn't a sequel to Halo 3.

I suppose if you never buy sequels that are similar to the original, you've never bought some of the best games of all time. Pity.

My favourite game is a sequel, actually (God of War II). My favourite game this gen, Uncharted 2, is also a sequel.

What would you have them do to Modern Warfare 2 to stop it being "the same as" CoD4?

the problem is that there is no improvement that the cod before it. i heard people say the multiplayer felt the same as the one in mw and same goes to single player they do not inovate or improve. all they improve is graphics and fix bugs. take halo reach, fans asked for the old halo 1 life system so they reinvented the life system etc.... and that doesn't stop halo reach from having an epic single player and multiplayer. Improve cod4 not only in graphics. does it improve destruction of buildings etc...... and i think the answer is no or slight improvement.
