Call of Duty Black Ops 4 replacing COD WW2 with MW2 Remastered but Switch in question

Call Of Duty Black Ops 4 will be replacing COD WW2 in 2018, while MW2 Remastered is also being primed for launch, but it appears a Nintendo Switch port may not be in the works.

?? the last line of the description and the actual article conflict themselves. The title makes it seem like a Switch port is not happening, but then in the article they outline several rumours and indicators that it is in fact happening. Journalism 101 I guess..

PoSTedUP2366d ago (Edited 2366d ago )

'its not happening... ..maayybbee :D.' is what i got out of it.

letsa_go2366d ago

It is just a stupid headline in general. Just because you can form words into a sentence doesn't automatically mean you are a journalist! How is MW2 remastered replacing WW2? Will I be unable to play WW2 anymore once MW2 is out? The worst part is the writer is probably being paid for this crap. I need to start writing clickbait articles, for real.

fathertime44642366d ago

More than likely refering to modern warfare bundle

Kumakai2365d ago

I’d be surprised if it happened honestly. COD is a 60fps twitch shooter. I own a Switch and I don’t see how even if they got it to run, any self respecting COD player would opt for that version.

I agree with your comments on the article. Super weird. It seems a number of articles that get posted are written by tweens and middle schoolers.

Neonridr2365d ago

I guess it depends on what they would have to sacrifice. I agree with your sentiments about the frame rate though. And while it might be able to hit that while docked, in handheld mode I am unsure. But Destiny proves that 30fps works just fine. So who knows.

Spoticle2366d ago

Not really a great article IMO only because it seems like this is all pure speculation without real hard official facts on top of a very odd title, WW2 already came out so what's the deal with saying BO4 is its replacement?

bamillington2366d ago

good i wouldnt soil my switch with that muck

TheDreamCorridor2366d ago

“I want less games on my console.”

What’re you, fucking stupid?

Teflon022365d ago

Lmfao this actually made me laugh. Great response

RosweeSon2365d ago

No just has a good taste in games. Call of duty is great in small doses every other year not every single year and play it all day every day, nah.

marloc_x2366d ago

I would like a little junk food on my Switch

 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Sirk7x2365d ago (Edited 2365d ago )

I would buy a new CoD game on the Switch in a heartbeat, even just to support it. WWII wasn't bad at all, and I've hated the series since Ghosts released.
Also, Black Ops 2 on Wii U was awesome with wiimote controls.

Kabaneri2366d ago

MW2 multiplayer on Switch would be so rad.

PhantomS422365d ago

Then you could shoot up an airport inside an airport!

Blu3_Berry2366d ago

I don't even care about Call of Duty at this point. It's just gone hill due to over-saturation by releasing every year. I'm glad that we are no longer in that time where everything must be multiplayer-focused like it was in the 360/Ps3 era.

Cancelled Call of Duty Game "NX1" Gameplay Footage, Black Ops 4 "War" Mode" Surface

A cancelled Call of Duty game titled "NX1" had footage surface online, along with a Black Ops 4 unreleased mode called "War."

RaidenBlack238d ago

looks like the OG Infinite Warfare

Profchaos238d ago

Yeah it does look good wonder why it was canned

EvertonFC238d ago

Probably a proper game with no MT and they didn't see any profits 😂🤣

Name Last Name238d ago

That Neversoft logo took me back to Tony Hawk days. Sad to see this cancellation led to the studio closure.

Juancho51238d ago

It’s always sad to see great concepts destroyed so deep into development. They obviously had a lot of ideas and aren’t happy about it. Now withe layoffs even more videos like this will surface soon.

Xbox Fans Call Out 'Activision's Greed' Over Call Of Duty Digital Prices

This week's Deals with Gold selection on Xbox has rubbed certain Xbox fans the wrong way, as several Call of Duty titles are still ludicrously priced - despite being discounted by up to 67% off over the next few days.

How is 20 dollars for X360 call of duty games "ludicrously" overpriced?

And with Activision's lawer bills skyrocketing at the moment you are not going to be seeing deep discounts for a bit.

Chevalier1115d ago

Pretty sure that's the sale off that's 60% off. After the sale ends that 360 game is still listed at $49.99, right not its $19.99 because the 60% off.

VersusDMC1115d ago

I guess they can wait for the next sale then.

SullysCigar1115d ago

It's nice to see the Xbox community stand up for themselves though. That's been needed for a long time.

InUrFoxHole1114d ago

For a long time? Its the reason xbox is killing it this gen.

senorfartcushion1115d ago

Lawsuits don’t cost billions, they’re ALWAYS going to be fine for money.

They could stack their bills on the ground and fill half the continent of Africa at this point.

RaiderNation1115d ago

Because Xbox fans are so used to playing games on the Xbox EBT subscription service, the idea of paying anything for a game seems ludicrous to them.

MadLad1115d ago (Edited 1115d ago )

You pay for the service.

Do you have Amazon Video?
Hulu?
Netflix?

It's a subscription service. Not a charity. You're literally going at people over the idea of using a pro consumer service, and that's the real joke here.

thorstein1115d ago

When records were sold, they were eventually replaced by tapes, which cost less to manufacture, but more to buy. Then CDs came along and were cheaper to manufacture, but cost more at retail. Digital, of course, is the cheapest yet, but billion dollar corporations want to charge the same.

And no, that money is not going to the person sitting in the chair actually making the game.

It is pure and utter greed from people who don't need any more money.

InUrFoxHole1114d ago

Lol calm down Bobby. You crapped on thus franchise.

"Many have also noted how the multiplayer in several of these titles is either dead or filled with hackers, meaning players are paying a hefty sum for a short campaign and potentially some zombie modes."

With these clear truths the decades older COD games should be permanently 19.99 regular price and sale prices 7.99 minimum

autobotdan1115d ago

Typo sale prices 2.99 minimum and 9.99 maximum. Older COD tiles seven years old or older should never be over 20 dollars regular price

senorfartcushion1115d ago

I have paid less than 3 dollars for some AAA PS4 games, old 360 CoD games should not be $20

FanboysKiller1115d ago

Any fps game runs by the quirk engine follows this logic
Eat
Sleep
Die instantly
Repeat
As if the main purpose of the game more of "repeat" than the actual gameplay experience , any noob in this game will tell you his mind stucked in repeating the sequence number of deaths than the gameplay itself , what a complete pile of #.

EvertonFC1115d ago

It's why I don't play cod anymore, my 45yr old hands can't compete with these kids 😂 🤣
1 kill to every 10 deaths is not fun

John_McClane1115d ago

Don't let that stop you if you enjoy the game, it's actually pretty good for hand/eye coordination.

lipton1011115d ago

Try Escape from Tarkov. It forces you to slow down and think. I’m not a fan of the ADD speed of CoD

Father__Merrin1115d ago

All the back compat titles are cheap listing when you scroll through them u till you come to black ops it's a complete rip off

Rhythmattic1115d ago (Edited 1115d ago )

Well... Don't buy it..... Is it really that hard to comprehend?
Everything else you choose to purchase with your hard earned cash , so should games be held to the same reasoning....
Just don't give em the cash....

Entitlement that's bizarre, from the publisher and from the consumer.... Thats pretty fkd up if you think about it...

GhostofHorizon1115d ago

It's hilarious that some people don't see this as an option.

MadLad1115d ago

Bananas now cost $30 a pound. There's no good reason for it, but if you want bananas, there you go.

You don't have to buy them.

It's about their constant greed when handling the franchise. Nobody has to buy anything, but when a company doesn't follow corporate norms when selling their product; overpricing their old wares just because they can, the consumer is allowed to call that out.

GhostofHorizon1115d ago

Consumer can call them out, but I think they are going about it the wrong way.

The reason they get away with everything they do is simply because they can. They can charge $20 for a skin pack because people will gladly buy it. There is plenty of competition for FPS games, it's not like it's a niche market.

I know it's easier to blame and demand better from Activision than people that keep buying these overpriced items. If they weren't being bought, Activision would lower the price though. People like to pretend to take the high road but wouldn't you rather sell the banana for $30 than $3 if people are willing to buy it?

franwex1115d ago

@therealtedcruz

I think there’s a virus destroying the banana and may even go extinct. So maybe that’s why.

I think it’s happen before too.

MadLad1114d ago

A small subset buys those skins and whatnot. Most players don't. The "whale" mindset is pretty accurate across the board, where there's a small handful who buy a lot, and most who don't buy any. Either way, that means they're imposed on the majority either way.

That's different from overpricing your game though. Activision easily makes their money off every release, then milks it until the next release, then throws it away. They never put significant sales on even a release from several cycles ago. Whether it sells or not.

And I mean, yeah; if I were a business, I'd probably want to make as much money as possible.
But I'm not a business; I'm a consumer, thus I find many businesses to be complete assholes.

Rhythmattic1109d ago

And people are still blaming the high prices but suggest they're still wiling to buy it... Not too smart are you peoples....

Its a non regulated pricing structure, sure , many play by the status-quo , but to actually complain by complaining, instead of standing your ground and not buying it, by buying it , you are the reason its happening....

Idiots, Idiots everywhere.... What? So those that are complaining don't want to pay the money, but cant do without it?

FFS. Entitlement level 5000...
Drink some cement and harden the Fk up!

Sitdown1115d ago

The article and title isn't saying that people are buying it, its simply saying that they are calling them out for greed. I guess you had a problem with people calling out Microsoft for trying to increase the price of Live, and don't understand how voicing concern led to them backing away from the decision.

Teflon021114d ago

People need to put that energy into Nintendo's Pricing over Activisions tbh. They're focused on the wrong things

Rhythmattic1109d ago (Edited 1109d ago )

Greed? Ok... Dont buy it and prove that by being greedy , they got it wrong... Not that hard to understand is it?
To Add... I haven't bought Cod since MW2.... Because of these exact practices.... Fact.
