Couldn't have said it better myself. COD4 was the last original COD IMO.

The most surprising thing for me is that so many people bought it for the full price. I was one of the few that looked up on Ebay for it and got it for half price. Honestly, what happened to the smart consumer?

WaW and Blops weren't bad ideas. Treyarch is just a very bad studio.

Well..I suppose Activision got what they wanted.

Why do you care?

Because this proves people are prepared to pay good money repeatedly for a reskinned game.

Makes me wonder... I should paint something and sell it for 60 bucks. See what happens.

Everything's worth exactly what somebody's willing to pay.



Unfortunately, with most art, that means you have to die first.

This, although I'd add that it was never a good game in the first place anyway :P

COD4 was a landmark in FPS history. It's sent the industry standard.
