Sledgehammer CEO: PS3 is NOT holding back Call of Duty

Sledgehammer Games' CEO Glen Schofield has clarified recent reports suggesting that the 'aging architecture' of current-generation consoles is holding back Call of Duty, saying that his comments were taken "completely out of context".

Weird. It seems it's always 360 is holding back or current gen consoles are holding PC back. Regardless, Looking at BF3, Gears 3, UC3 and looking at MW3 I have to ask what the hell is this guy on. MW3 has the same graphics, voices, sounds from MW2. MW3 is literally just a copy and paste job.

so sad that people will buy MW2 volume 2 for 60$ and pay for the CoD elite fee :(

we GAMERS must go against lazy developers and greedy publishers before it's too late.

If gears 3 can be done on a 360 and skyrim can fit on one disc, then the 360 isnt holding back as much as people think.

NukaCola4606d ago (Edited 4606d ago )

Who would think the PS3 is holding anything back? What is going to happen when the next COD runs on an engine that will consume more than 7gigs of information? Like Castlevania, Mass Effect, Rage, Battlefield 3, are on 360. I think the issue is Activision and it's developers give too sh*ts about the PS3 version, which is sad since the PS3 version of Blops was almost the exact same as the 360 version in sales, and the PS3 COD crowd is the fastest growing crowd. You'd think they would treat everyone equally, but sadly they don't.

Ohhh.. Didn't hear those shenannigans.

Some media outlets reported that the PS3 was holding back Call of Duty a couple of weeks ago.

If anything 360 is holding games back. Lost planet 2 had tons of content cut on the PS3 version because of the 360 version not being able to fit on 1 dvd.

Call of Duty Players Disappointed by $80 B.E.A.S.T. Glove Bundle Deal

Recently, players of Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone were met with a new bundle featuring the B.E.A.S.T. Glove, inspired by King Kong's armament in the Godzilla x Kong movie. However, the $80 price tag attached to this themed accessory left many Call of Duty fans feeling underwhelmed.

Morons that allow themselves to be milked continuously by this company is the definition of irony.
Spend more $$ and you'll end up In easier lobbies so you win both ways when ya spend that cash

Controversy in the COD community feels like it happens within an alternate timeline. Activision will take the piss with something, there will be a momentary fuss about it, and then they will forget about it and carry on anyway. Repeat this cycle literally every year for the rest of time.

They call that a crack head! Thats what this is really about, its an addiction. People who dont smoke cigarettes look and laugh at the addicts that spend $8-$10 a pack, but they cant help themselves, they are addicted. That same analogy applies perfectly to the whole MT industry. Only an addict that was not thinking clearly would spend this kind of money on something so frivolous. A round of multiplayer provides the same high a person gets from scratching a lotto ticket, or putting money on a sports bet. MT in general need to really be regulated because you have a generation of kids becoming adults who grew up only knowing the MT era of gaming. Its normal to them and they will in turn teach their kids the same by just being a gaming parent and getting their kids involved with them in gaming. Thats why no matter how ridiculous the headlines keep getting out of the MT industry, it never seems to fade or go away.

I'm so tired of hearing about what they're doing with this game, its never going to change and it's never going to value the consumer over money, furthermore the people who engage so heavily in the microtransactions I guess allegedly are having a blast and can't wait to do it some more this year when the new version of the game drops.

Cheech And Chong Are Coming To Call Of Duty Because Everything Must Be Consumed

The famous comedy duo is the latest example of pop culture becoming one big grey blob

Christopher19d ago

Certain to have some sort of reference to their online store for CBD/THC chews, which is advertising heavily online the last month or two.

Sciurus_vulgaris19d ago

The randomness of the multiplayer characters is one of reason I quit playing COD after briefly returning in 2022. We got Space Marines, rappers, tree monsters etc. all in a series called “ Modern Warfare”.

OtterX19d ago (Edited 19d ago )

I think if there was ever a time for a competitor to rise up and take away some of Call of Duty's thunder, the time would be now. A military shooter that takes itself seriously, not sold out to Fortnitism. Easier said than done, I know... but the time is ripe.

I can't stand this stuff either.

Palitera18d ago

There are tons of MP shooters that make no profit, if you're looking for one of those

fsfsxii18d ago

You guys have been saying this shit since 2009. Fortunately, nobody’s bringing down cod anytime soon, if ever.

crazyCoconuts18d ago

I agree. I really didn't like how the silliness takes away the gritty origins. That and all the crazy effects... dunno. I'm still playing it but I'd love for someone to steal their cheese and cater to grittier players

OtterX18d ago

@fsfsxii It's not so much wanting COD itself to die as it is wanting this silliness to die. Like CrazyCoconuts said, it takes from the grittiness. Many OG COD players want a straightup Military shooter experience, not silly costume time at Carnival.

is this what the kids want these days a pair of iconic stoners who were big in the 70s and have kind of held on I enjoyed their movies decades ago but I never recall the movie where cheech infiltrates a enemy base while chong snipes for support guess I must of missed that one

Man I'm getting to old for this

Knightofelemia19d ago (Edited 19d ago )

Cheech just looks so wrong in the picture.

Profchaos18d ago

Why just why. cod up in smoke

anast18d ago

They charge too much for a game that is kitsch.

MW3 missed its easiest opportunity to give us some of the best Call of Duty maps ever made

From Bootleg to Black Box, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 made a heartbreaking mistake by not remastering the bizarrely forgotten maps from its namesake.
