Call of Duty 3 Developer Treyarch Likely Developing New COD World War II Title
It is likely Treyarch is working on the next Call of Duty game, be it a main numbered entry or a spinoff. Treyarch has developed Call of Duty: United Offensive (PC) as Gray Matter, which merged into Treyarch; Call of Duty 2: Big Red One (PS2, Xbox, GCN); and Call of Duty 3. All of Treyarch's standalone Call of Duty games have been console-only.
In order to keep the successful series releasing on a yearly basis, publisher Activision juggled entries such that creator Infinity Ward worked on Call of Duty 4: Modern Combat while Treyarch worked on the prior game. Given that setup, it is plausible that Treyarch would now be working on Call of Duty 5 while Infinity Ward moves onto Call of Duty 6.
Given the language of Treyarch's posting, it is almost certain its next game is set during the ubiquitous world War II. Infinity Ward, however, has seen critical and commercial success with its new modern-day game, which may prompt Activision to keep new entries in that vein. In a Shacknews interview this year, lead designer Steve Fukoda said the studio had not decided whether it would retain the setting.

Then I disagree with Remo too :). I think we have to encourage and persuade devs to put out innovative games by supporting those titles with our wallets. But not really at the expense of franchise titles like this. When I worked in a Game I found out how much casual gamers want these sorts of titles. And there's nothing wrong with that in my opinion it creates more gamers and makes more money for the industry.
It's like Pop music for kids, they start off liking Pop and as their tastes mature so does the type of music they're willing to listen to.-
Kids are capable of liking good music, too, though. Why feed them shit made by cunts when they could start on the real stuff? :(
Not that I didn't like crap music when I was very young, but that's all they played on the radio and all I was exposed to. Once I heard better stuff I, still young, liked it a lot more threw away the old stuff.

If they listen to better music then (a) they'll more quickly develop an appreciation of the artform; (b) it might give them something to think about lyrically, and musically if they are that way inclined; and (c) they'll have stuff from their childhood that they can still appreciate years later, which is cool in itself.
Even if you don't value any of those things much, what's the advantage to having them listen to crap?

They'll enjoy both types of music so that isn't an advantage in bad music's favour.
Some pop music is good so don't think I'm saying that only obscure stuff is good or anything like that. I'm just saying, why feed children like Britney Burgers when they could eat a nice, well-cooked steak? They will enjoy both and, in the long term, they'll get more out of the better stuff. Plus we will be rewarding the people who made the best things more than the people who make crap.

Euro Trash is interpreting my opinion in an incorrect way. I'm not sure specifically what he's basing it on. I believe we should encourage the industry by voting with our wallets as well. Good games should be supported, whether they are franchise titles or not. I support titles I find to be innovative because I think there should be more of them. I also recently bought Halo 3, The Orange Box, Super Mario Galaxy, and so on--I've even give all of those glowing Shacknews reviews.
