World of Duty!


Activision is considering a MMO Fps for the the next Call of Duty!

"The head cheese at Activation, Bobby Kotick, recently made headlines for his assertion that, in order to compete properly with World of Warcraft, publishers may need to invest nearly a billion dollars in such a venture"

A billion dollars! Are you kidding me? How the heck do you make money off creating a game that cost you a billion dollars. Well they might try some in game advertisement which would suck but would easily be better than a monthly fee.

"Kotick parlayed that into a thought on in-game advertising, in which he
pointed to Starcraft as a model for short-session, ladder tournament play that
can easily support ad spots."

Most people don't think that it's gonna come out. Personally I'd love it! Maybe you would be part of the us army or terrorists and wouldtravel around the middle east or some other place filling out the orders of your superiors. Gun customization would be pushed to the limit as well!

If I heard that a movie cost a billion dollars to make, I know there would be no way for them to get that money back.

With the gaming industry worth more than Hollywood, I wouldn't question a game that cost a billion dollars making its money back.

Word of Warcraft has over 8.5 million subscribers at $14.99US per months, it takes about 9 months to earn a billion dollars. That's excluding the initial amounts many of those users paid for the software initially.

Could happen.
