Call of Duty made bonkers bucks this generation by being an annualized series developed alternately by two studios: Treyarch and Infinity Ward (and later Sledgehammer with Raven helping out).
Could Battlefield do the same, an analyst asked EA?
NO. I like it when a franchise gives us breathing room and a chance to miss it. It also gives the development team time to respond to what worked and didn't.
Honestly the only annual game I haven' got tired of is Assassins Creed. Which is kind of odd, because the sword-play is still the same as it was 3 titles ago. I was actually going to skip IV because I felt a little burnt out by the end of 3. I'm glad I didn't though, Black Flag is fantastic.
while cod sells like it does wont not? if i can do the same thing every year and make money i'd do it, cod is also good for the share holders to get they're money so why not? for us gamers it sucks but if u dont like cod i suppose u can just.....and this is revolutionary thinking here.....not buy it
here here even sports games. whats wrong with charging say $15 for yearly updates of players and tranfers instead of half arsed sequels fifa 11 is still my fav footie game no need 4 12,13 and 14
what a stupid article... no where in this did this guy say anything about "mulling" over making this an annual release. This was just to stir up an antbed and get views... but for the record, CoD SHOULDNT BE ANNUALIZED EITHER...

NO
If this involves bring back Bad Company then yes.....
