bigpoint talks with activision.. tries to poison the apple "of duty"

bigpoint studio's is most well known for.. ...........game that suck and their CEO who talks alot of smack for no particular reason.

today mr smacks alot and few of his buisness cohorts are trying to steal away the call of duty licensce for themselves. they want to steal it out from under treyarch's nose.. they hope to turn the franchise into a browser based experience.. speaking personnally id like to walk in their and make some of my own "calls of duty" with a round upside the face but it appears activision is actually buying big point's sob story. we may yet see call of duty cut down by a bad buisness move.

I wouldn't be surprised if Activision gets a company to develop a CoD browser based game but I doubt it will replace the main series. Kinda like BF Heroes...

"It helps that console games introduce game mechanics to players, but we can teach the other side of the industry how to monetise its players better."

Right on! That's what it's all about!

It doesn't even matter if the game would be any good. It just needs to have "Call Of Duty" stamp on it. Ofcourse Bigpoint want's a cut from that massive cake...

more money = good business move. they don't care if it means cutting down the game to it's bones, but i too think that this has no effect on the main series.

Activision are interested in this opportunity because they can then act on their comments about using a subscription based payment model to charge for multiplayer.

It`s becoming lucrative. EA acquired Playfish and implemented a dependency of their browser game for Dragon age 2. Looks like another way of implementing content keys, because a wast majority of gamers would never never play browser games.
