"So with the latest installment in this incredible series coming soon, it made sense to take a stroll through memory lane, and rank the Call of Duty series from best to worst."
GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 leap up due to summer sales
Wow, good games never get old I guess.
CoD will always be a beast of a franchise, and how awesome is it that you can just boot it up or pop it into your Xbox and play, MS BC is really a neat feature.
Many players on social media are now reporting unannounced matchmaking fixes have been put in place by Activision ranging from Call of Duty 3 to Modern Warfare 2 to Black Ops 2, on Xbox 360. Players are reporting that player counts are updating, lobbies forming, and matchmaking times have been reduced. Neither Activision nor Microsoft have commented on the matter when reached out to at this time. This is currently impacting both 360 and BC versions of the games. PS3 is not affected at this time.

Multiple users coming forward saying the games are finally working again after years of server issues. Note that not all issues such as player counts are totally fixed at this time however matchmaking is fully working again. With legacy Call of Duty games releasing on Game Pass within the next 2 years, it does make sense for these servers to eventually be corrected. Good to see the preservation of these legendary games. Hopefully PS3 receives the same treatment for these legacy titles!

Imagine that.
Conspiracy theory: MS have been planning on purchasing ABK for a long time. They let Sony outbid them for having console-exclusive CoD stuff/being first for certain dlc so the PlayStation player base would increase.
Years later, MS buy ABK, with plans to make CoD either exclusive/platform exclusive features etc with the release of a new console (Xbox Series X2?) So the established CoD player base migrates over to their platform, taking a huge percentage off Sony?
Wild theory
Modern Warfare 2 Season 2 is almost here but the latest COD game needs to use this Advanced Warfare map and more in MW2 Season 3, amid calls for map remasters.
If I had to rank my top 5 i'd go:
1)MW2
2)Cod 4
3)Black Ops 2
4)Advanced Warfare
5) Black Ops
The majority of players pick COD 4 because of how innovative and ground breaking it was at the time but i think MW2 hold up superior. To me MW2 was modern warfare + basically refining and expanding on all the ideas of the original. The original MW may be more iconic but I prefer almost everything from a gameplay and mode perspective in MW2
COD 3 was the shat!
Advanced Warfare was and is still fantastic. Best CoD yet in my opinion... Black Ops 2 is a close 2nd, CoD4 is 3rd, original Black Ops is 4th, and WaW was 5th for my top 5. Bottom of the list include CoD3, MW2, and MW3
MW2 is the best. Had a great co-op too
Was a good list but it's missing COD2 for PC. That game would probably be in my top 2.
I camped those sniper servers hard back in the day.
