Re: No More "CoD"? - Modern Warfare 2 Official Press Release

Hey it could of been worse, they could of started with Modern Warfares 4, 5 and 6, and then made Modern Warfare, 2 and 3.

Re: No More "CoD"? - Modern Warfare 2 Official Press Release

I believe it should be CoD: MW2, but if maybe they're taking the sour grapes rationalization and since they can't have CoD all to themselves, they won't have it at all. :p

yepp, i agree :thumbsup: because tbh, everyone who is going to get it, will most probably know what CoD and MW stand for..

Re: No More "CoD"? - Modern Warfare 2 Official Press Release

I really hope you aren't one of those IW fanboys that think World at War wasn't a real CoD title, because it didn't have the number 5 in it, so it wasn't the 5th major installment of the game which would make IW's next CoD title be the 5th major CoD title.

I got the 5 and 6 thing wrong, so sue me. :p

Thing is though, by simply removing "Call of Duty" from the name of this game, sales may be lost. I know some people who simply buy Call of Duty just because it is Call of Duty.

Re: No More "CoD"? - Modern Warfare 2 Official Press Release

Why does the 2 in Modern Warfare 2 look very similar to the 2 in Battlefield 2?

Re: No More "CoD"? - Modern Warfare 2 Official Press Release

Does it really matter? still going to be the same game.

Re: No More "CoD"? - Modern Warfare 2 Official Press Release

At this point it does not matter what they call it, the series is screwed up.

CoD3 never got released on PC, and CoD1, UO, did not get released on 360.

Basically it's everything a collector who likes chronological orders hates.

Re: No More "CoD"? - Modern Warfare 2 Official Press Release

so this begs the question, since TGN has a CoD site - does this game still fall under that umbrella?

i assume so but I thought i'd ask.

Re: No More "CoD"? - Modern Warfare 2 Official Press Release

Someone posted on the Network somewhere, something along along the lines of outlining that when people hear Call of Duty, they think of WWII, but when they hear Modern Warfare, they think of CoD4.
So basically questioning whether it will really affect anything at all. It only really needs Modern Warfare..

Re: No More "CoD"? - Modern Warfare 2 Official Press Release

I think it should stick to CoD background.. but who cares

Long-term, I think it's too early to tell (depending on how different the IW and Treyarch products become)...but for now I'd say they should probably be kept together in the same COD section.

It will be interesting to see if Activision even keeps the COD brand going for the WWII game, or if that is dropped and gets re-branded completely as well as just "World at War 2".

Re: No More "CoD"? - Modern Warfare 2 Official Press Release

How can you drop the CoD name completely? (ohno) MoH needs to drop the MoH b/c they're just blaspheming it's glorious past!

What would we call this site....Total War Games? lol Although, we could always adapt, it's part of technology nowadays, gotta keep moving.

Think if we did a Total War site for that game. Total Total War, lol!

Re: No More "CoD"? - Modern Warfare 2 Official Press Release

Total Win?

[CptainCrunch]

Re: No More "CoD"? - Modern Warfare 2 Official Press Release

But there is the RTS game Rome:Total War, Empire Total War, etc...

It would be total confusion
