:NomNomNom: Activision sucks. See Guitar Hero, etc. Tell me that series isn't a shadow of its former glory.

LOL I'm reminded of that episode of Family Guy where they beat the guy over the head with the picture for trying to be original.

Honestly, I'm ridiculously sick of WWII FPS games. And everyone else is too. It REALLY makes you wonder who they were surveying >.>

I personally like WW2 FPS games (DoD best FPS ever), and think CoD should have remained a WW2 Shooter. I also think that CoD should have been retired after CoD3, so I agree with both sides sorta.

wasn't there this whole hullabaloo about there being a FPS that took place in Iraq? my brother says he met a guy at a retirement home while doing community service (long story) who hates kids nowadays because they play WWII games and think it's kool (the guy fought in WWII). Just saying, I find them a little...distasteful, well...ever since I found out some veterans are really offended by them and I never gave it any thought before I heard about this guy

Depends on the FPS really, but I kinda like WW2 games. Like for example, Wolfenstine: Enemy Territory is uber fun if you get a couple of people together and play.

yep, they were involved in the ones for PS2, that or Agetec had there hands in them. They were good regardless.

But some companies just never want to risk new things, kinda sad and stupid.

Activision is infamous for milking franchises.

True enough. I had a fair amount of fun even just looking around.

On the other hand, they squelch creativity. If the developers didn't have the balls to strike out and find another publisher (in this case, Electronic Arts), then BRÜTAL LEGEND would have never been born. In fact, those cockbites at Activision tried to block the release of the game after qq'ing that they had 'lost significant resources' on its development after they PURGED THE PROJECT from their schedule.
