More news from Activision’s calendar year end earning call, and this time it’s good!

Activision says new Call of Duty looks “fantastic,” full of innovation

 - February 10th, 2012
With two sets of developers working pretty much all the time, there’s a new Call of Duty every year. It makes sense for publisher Activision to do this; every year, the new Call of Duty ends up decimating the previous year’s sales tally.

Activision on why COD Elite was so “unprepared”

 - November 14th, 2011
We’ve had some vigorous debate on COD over the last week, with both camps arguing for and against the franchise.
