'''The entire CoD series revolved around WWII. Notice that only after they changed it is when it started getting all the hate.'''

But what would be the point in making games about WWII all the time? It'd be like, say, if the Resident Evil series stayed in the same way it was when it was created in 1996. People would just get tired of it.

'''Additionally, CoD has been using this "Formula" since before CoD4. I remember the controls where almost exactly the same in CoD3, the only difference being the grenade button.'''

I'm talking about the Multiplayer (y'know, the only reason CoD sells this much). Perks, killstreaks, Create-a-Class, etc.

In my opinion, CoD should have just stuck to what they are good at, and after a few games, end the series.

You have to look at it from Activision's perspective. They're a corporation, so they need to make money. So, they revamped the series and made it into the mega money-maker it is now.
