They are confused because they keep naming the game the same stupid ass shit. Just call it COD and the fucking year like sports games.
The new MW3 steam reviews are locked until its official release, as is always the case. People are venting where it is both possible and making some sense.
The author likely is aware of this and just likes to poke fun at angry CoD fans.
Since it launches through Call of Duty HQ on Steam, I'm surprised there isn't more review bombing there
Is this really not that obvious? Giving already used names like that is just bound to create confusion.
They're out of ideas, sad.
You don't need ideas to count up.
I'd like you to meet Windows. And Office. And XBox. Microsoft doesn't understand counting.
And yet, it will be the most successful Call of Duty once again until people stop buying this shit every year.
I really wonder about the marketing departments of these things. Why repeat names, if the names already have numbers anyway???
Need for Speed does the same shit. And even Doom (2016) is called the same as Doom (1993)
Because it confuses the customer into thinking its a remake, when really they’re just capitalizing on the nostalgia of the name to sell copies
To be fair, the original Call of Duty 3 wasn't that great. Serious step down from Call of Duty 2, cause Treyarch was garbage back then.
I still chuckle when I recall that the Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare credits saying, "This is the third installment, Infinity Ward shit!"
Right, but they're review bombing Modern Warfare 3, not CoD3.
Oh, well then fuck those idiots. Storming through the stock exchange was awesome.
Treyarch wasn’t garbage, they had very little time to make it, also having to contend with three new consoles
No, no, it's not possible that my college fanboy brain was limited in its understanding of the world. Unfathomable.
Cracking me up, this shit is funny.
It's OK, the original MW3 is in need of a review bombing, that was just a blatant mw2 with new maps...
That tells me all I need to know about the cod fanbase
I stop caring about modern warfare about 5 years ago when it became apparent that they had even less artistic integrity than the FIFA games, so I haven't really been keeping track.
So what's this new game actually called is it literally just called Modern Warfare 3, again? Because if that's the case it's 100%, their fault.
I played COD in their latest deployment, I had fun and I was shocked at how the game pushed so much BS on others. One guy I played with said he dropped 1k on skins and weapons. In his defense, they are making it pay to win with some bundles. I never bought shit, just earned some skins and didn't care.
