There’s really no denying the staying power of Activision’s Call of Duty franchise. Year in and year out, the series continues to be one of the best-selling franchises on any platform, one of the biggest draws for online players, and a fine example of a hardcore gaming series that has successfully been transferred into the pop culture zeitgeist.
Additionally, considering the semirecent, much publicized kerfuffle surrounding Activision and Infinity Ward, all eyes are upon the “other” Call of Duty developer, Treyarch, to really bring their A-game this year with their upcoming entry to the beloved series, Call of Duty: Black Ops.
