Treyarch “didn’t really get the credit” it deserved for work on MW2 multiplayer tech, says Kotick

With the ongoing legal battle between Activision, Infinity Ward, and former employees of the firm, neither side can really discuss anything in great detail regarding the drama which ensued earlier this year.

However, with the amount of folks exiting Infinity Ward in the first month or so, it had the gaming public wondering if Activision could recover from the loss of talent.

Treyarch is talent right there!

I didnt like any of infinity's work, like call of duty 1,2,4, and especially 6.

I personally like treyarchs games, like 3,5, and 7.

nickjkl4912d ago

5 and 7 wtf when did those come out

all i see are world at war and black ops

Motorola4912d ago

You didnt like Call of duty 4...yet you like World at war.....and you didnt like COD2...yet you like 3...? No one liked 3...you cant be serious

El_Colombiano4911d ago

I enjoyed World at War more than Modern Warfare.

Bull5hifT4912d ago

I never played call of duty 2 but i remember it got much praise back then, but i enjoyed call of duty 4 alot, my setup was g36 silencer red dot scope smoke or flash grenades, claymores, deeper penatration, fast running, and like slight of hand i think or something where i was super quiet........ I love black ops so far, even though its a bit way over exagerated for 1960-70's technology.... Soo far using decoys and setting up claymores get me a gauranteed kill, dumbasses running to the red dot, i enjoyed MW2 alot at first then something just didnt hold my intrest, i hated WAW storyline, felt like more work than fun, the zombie mode and co-op was cool,, i Really enjoyed playing those Co-Op missions in MW2 it felt great when we survived alk that bullshit, i wanna be a jauggerknaught

JLeVRT4912d ago

(Im gonna get some disagrees)
Infinity Ward is the better company. I do have to admit. They dropped the ball with MW2 and Activision overpriced those map packs... not IW. Dont hate on IW... please... they made CoD4. They created CoD and theyre the reason alot of people play CoD today (CoD4)

You mean like interrogating the employees and promising them money that they wouldn't give?

Just keep trolling Bobby... You'll get whats coming to ya eventually.

scar204912d ago

You mean like losing the lawsuit against vince and jason.

RIPSKATEDESTROY4912d ago (Edited 4912d ago )

or did you mean a house made out of money?

AKA4912d ago

mw2 lags is worse then SOCOM CONFRONTATION but reviews give one 6's and the other one 9's and 10's why?

socomnick4912d ago

mw2 lags more than socom you must be smoking crack.

Motorola4912d ago

thats exactly what he said ^

isa_scout4912d ago

i agree with all the above comments, and even though bobby IS a complete ass i still think black ops is a far better game than MW2. is it as good as MW1?no, but will any COD be that good again? i highly doubt it

Look, to be honest the FTC should just stop.

MS has A/B and nothing has really changed yet...if you are worried about 5-10 years from now...just drop it cause the future is unpredictable.

Take this week's news, that 4 Xbox exclusive are going Multiplatform.

Yeah man I think Microsoft here getting to probe is kinda wrong unless you only have accessed to necessary information not complete access imo.

Abriael79d ago

Obviously they aren't giving them the password to Sony's computers and telling them "help yourself."

Eonjay78d ago

"Microsoft allowed to probe Sony and Ubisoft"

Sounds hot...

ApocalypseShadow79d ago (Edited 79d ago )

Maybe Microsoft should also talk and get help from their "congressional influencers" at The Capital. They had plenty to say on the matter before the acquisition. They are mighty quiet after the purchase went through. Almost as if they had a stake in the matter.

Abriael79d ago

Could you perhaps explain how this is related? I'm honestly curious since you seem to bring it up rather often.

S2Killinit78d ago

He is pointing out how corrupt MS is, and how money talks. I think.

KwietStorm_BLM78d ago

I would say read between the lines but it's pretty damn clear as it is.

Bathyj78d ago

You should be careful upsetting Sony too much Microsoft.
You might need them to sell your subpar games soon.

TornRaptor78d ago

The games will become the best things ever all of a sudden.

Bathyj78d ago

Yeah I really doubt that.
I'm struggling to think of one I really cared about missing.

Hofstaderman78d ago

Bwhahahaha. Ain't that the truth.

Mr_cheese78d ago

The only exclusive im personally interested in from Microsoft is Elderscrolls and that's not even got s release date.

Everything else is genuinely of none interest.

OtterX78d ago

Microsoft never waits for the probing to be consensual.

derek78d ago

This isn't a major victory. They're essentially being allowed to call witnesses in regards to agreements they reached with Sony and Ubisoft which was initially blocked because Microsoft didn't make the request through the proper channels. This case is dead, there is no way the ftc will be allowed to unwind this acquisition.

Sephiroushin78d ago

they probably know case is death but want some proof to sue them for a few millions regarding other stuff, the ftc loves to sue everyone, be sure that as soon as all this end they will just go sue MS and end in a settlement.
