@OP For now.
So why do you not think that the next Call of Duty won't be World War II?

Wasn't it announced it would be in Vietnam, or was that just a rumour?
| Mr Khan said: We need a world war II game where you can pick a country, and a theatre if that country was involved in multiple theatres, and fight your way through it. America, Britain, Soviet Union, China, Germany, Japan, Italy, even Vichy France (they had troops fighting for the Axis all over the world too) America in Western Europe, which has been done to death, but could be an option, America pacific, America Mediterranean. Vichy France in colonial Africa, Japan in China, or China in China. Still FPS gameplay, but embrace all the multiple angles at once. |
If I win the lottery, I'll hire you as the creative mind behind such a game.

You know what, WW 2 and MW 2 games are WAY to modern, for a REAL all out war FPS, we need to go further back than WW I. That's right the American Civil War, nuff said.
OT: I think it's about time they gave WW II games a rest, I mean in the past decade how many WW II games have come out? I think we should let them sit back for a good three to five years and pick em up again if the demand is still there.

This article from today is still assuming it's WWII.
That's why it's usually a good idea when you make crazy statements like the OP did...
WWII will be back. It's a fantastic setting. I, for one, never got tired of it. And looking at the sales of CoD:WaW, I'm not the only person.

COD classic just got released on xbox live and Im sure more will follow.
Americans will have a hard time making no WW2 games... Like Yatzee said, its the last time they fought in a meaningful war and did some good.
Wait a minute Disolitude are you suggesting game companies are xenophobic in their views on the wars? I find this a ridiculous notion.

No, I think he's suggesting that game companies want to sell a lot of games in the world's biggest market.
