IGN: Call of Duty 4 Stats In-Depth

In January, Infinity Ward community manager Robert Bowling dropped some stat bombs on the Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare community that made IGN spill their caramel soy macchiatos. On his blog, IAMfourzerotwo, Bowling let the gaming world know that more than 14 million unique players had played CoD4 on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 while connected to the Internet since the game launched in November 2007, 10 million of them on Xbox 360. That's a lot of headshots.

So what makes Call of Duty 4 so popular with such a wide audience of hardcore gamers, casual shooter fans and probably your parents? IGN recently reached out to Bowling to talk in more depth about CoD4's broad appeal and what gives the game such staying power.

Will be interesting to see what sort of numbers GP users draw in come tomorrow. It is believed that this is one many have been waiting for.

Darth,

That is not accurate; this game is old, and most people who want it have already bought it. You might get a small number of subs, but we will mostly see a good influx of players(not new subs) from people with Game Pass who will try it, which is what happened with D4.

CoD: BO 6 will be the test for actual sub numbers.

darthv72341d ago

That's fair... seeing as many have been saying they want CoD in GP. My comment was more of , now that its here... what can it do. Im sure there will be other titles in the franchise that will either entice or turn off different users.

No one's buying a console and signing up for a monthly bill just to get this game to avoid buying it. That's ridiculous. Besides everyone bagged the crap out of this on release for the 4 hour campaign.

Sweet. Never got round to it on release. I'll give the campaign a go

Severly underrated game. Big improvement over 2.

MW was an excellent videogame. They messed up Spec Ops big time, but aside from this it was a huge step in the right direction initially. Most notably, at launch it seemed to come from a very cohesive creative vision that was felt across gameplay, to story to art style/visual direction. It was also very notably written by prominent ex-Naughty Dog guys that quit almost immediately before release.

That COMPLETELY dissolved through post-launch content and the full pivot to a "cross-mode" narrative that completely obliterated the cohesion in overall story direction. Warzone then "became" the new face of Call of Duty and the franchise completely removed itself from anything remotely creatively "good". It is a pure money machine, so I kinda get why they're doing it....but I personally completely lost interest.

I would love to see Infinity Ward move off CoD and get to make their own product with full control. They clearly have some massive talent in their ranks but it's perverted by Activision's corporate interests.
