Making more games is NOT tantamount to being a BETTER developer. Going by this logic Treyarch blows studios Valve, Bungie, and Insomniac out of the water.

They do not.

MARKED! CoD4 came out 2 years after CoD2, so I don't see why CoD5 won't come out by late 2009 at the latest.

Treyarch isn't sub-par (they're better than the majority of developers if you really think about it), only not as good as IW.

I'm not saying it won't be fun (hell, I bought the last 3 CoDs so I'll probably buy this one, too) only that Modern Warfare spoiled me on the possibilities of what battle in the near future can be like, and it's just aesthetically and viscerally more interesting. Not bashing the mechanics (CoD's is amongst the best) only displaying my disappointment that I have to wait an extra year before I can fight in the present again. I mean really, Band of Brothers is gonna sweep the WWII shooters this fall and I have a feeling Treyarch might not be able to match it.

Is seeing and playing the game gonna make the it NOT another damned WWII game?

No, it won't, and thus the justifiable bashing of taking the series back a step instead of forward.

No, because it'd be boring as hell sitting in the trenches and moving a total of 20 feet forward by the end of the game.

Anyone notice how they've refrained from actually putting a "5" in the title?

Plus, anyone else offended that they're referring to Asian's as "seemingly alien"?

The problem with CoD3 was that it wasn't as good as CoD2, which is a bad thing for a sequel to be. The reason IW's so beloved is that they made a huge leap forward every CoD game they've developed while Treyarch just took a sidestep to the left and one back.

It seems they're doing the same thing again here.

I buy stuff out of me friend Bovice's trunk. If he doesn't have what I want I beat him down, then go to Wal-Mart.

And it's being funny how you're being "critical" of GTAIV while bitching about critics.

Pot calling the kettle black.
