I enjoy Call of Duty, but I can still see the problem with it, a problem that Activision is pretty damn vocal about: it's all about the money. The CEO of Activision pretty much said that he wanted to turn it into a yearly franchise because people will buy it. They also do it with all their other titles and eventually killed them.
Do I enjoy CoD? Yes. But you know what, I'd probably enjoy it for another year or two if they didn't release another version with updates that could have been done via patches. See, the problem is is that they will release a new version. Everyone goes "OGMOMFGOMFGOMFG" and go buy it, and the people who are aware of what's going on end up either being left behind(all your friends have MW3 now, enjoy Black Ops by your lonesome) or getting it. It's a ****ing harsh circle that is now happening on a yearly schedule.

I agree, if they put out another CoD next year they're going to overkill the series.
Activision is going to kill off another series...guess they haven't yet learned from what they did to Tony Hawk and Guitar Hero.
They've covered all war settings past and present, unless they do something like GRAW or BF: 2142 I don't see how they can refresh the series without killing it.
