I don't see what the problem is. Don't want a GH or CoD every year? Don't buy it. Why waste vital emotional energy hating a corporation of all things. Just don't support them. They say the opposite of love isn't hate, it's indifference, or feeling nothing for the subject. Let go of your anger young padawans it only hurts you, not Activision.

[QUOTE="Wasdie"][QUOTE="IronBass"]Yeah, let's hate a company for wanting to make money. :|

Its not wanting to make money, its their ways of doing it. I mean in the end it comes down to the stupid consumers who buy the 50 guitar hero games and all of the mappacks for CoD WaW and the upcoming CoD MW2.

They are buying it because they want it. I have no problem with a company who is making product that the masses want.

Seriously, what gives us the right to dictate how any company makes money. If it was really wrong or bad, it would be illegal. People act like these companies don't have overhead, or staff to pay every two weeks. Yeah, Activision stop what your doing so when you need to lay hard working families off, the unemployment rate goes up, but we get games every 2-3 years and feel like there was more artistic merit in them. Get a grip folks, it's not all about you.

[QUOTE="doobie1975"][QUOTE="GodofBigMacs"]*Signs* for the same reason. They did the same with CoD. GodofBigMacs

its no more milked that the MSG franchise

Yeah, because a new MGS comes out every year.... :roll:

So it is ok for EA to release new Sports games every year (and they have ALOT of them) but Activision, who only releases Yearly renditions of CoD (most of which are marked improvements over previous iterations, CoD 2 over CoD 1, CoD 4 over CoD 3. As a matter of fact, I would say that Every infinity ward developed CoD has to this date been a breath of fresh air to the FPS genre. What Treyarch has done with the series is more of a retail expansion with a full length campaign and online maps) and GH on a yearly basis is evil?

Why would anyone hate Activision for doing what most companies do? You know what the biggest problem is this gen? The complaining. Nobody does anything about the problem they just run to message boards and complain, but will still spend the money anyway.

After all, how could you miss out on Call of Guitar Hero on Duty 11 with the Tank peripheral?

Don't waste your energy hating Activision, just don't buy their products when they offend your sensiblities.They run a business. They are supposed to try and make money off of you.

I will admit though, Bobby K. is a bit of a: fill in deragatory term here.

ActicEdge

speak for yourself.I refuse to buy any of activisions garbage while evryone is playing their trash.I'm doing my part so dont you even tell me im not doing anything about it.but the thing is activision laughs at me because whats one person not buying their "insert" titles as apposed to a whole herd of fanoys/sheep thay love anything that comes out of their mouth?

So then save your money and move on. If what you are essentially saying is that the people who buy Activisions products are thick or inferior to yourself than you have much to learn. People want it, they provide it period. If you don't like that, sucks to be you.

what do you mean so?they are driving the music game franchise to the ground...and I dont know about you or anyone else, but rock band doesnt deserve an untimely death becasue of Activisions inability to produce music titles at a fair rate

How is CoD crap? And How is GH worse than Rockband? Can anyone seriously give a VALID argument as to why Activision is crap now without mentioning Koticks name? Or is this hatred simply because you hate a guy who thinks that Video game development is to expensive and games as a result should be more money, or thinks that the PS3 doesn't deserve their support because of weaker than expected sales due to its high price?

Nor do the human beings that don't agree with you deserve to be insulted because they buy Activision games. Hey you believe in this crusade against Activision, fine. But why insult others for wanting to enjoy what they enjoy just because you don't enjoy it? Step off the pedestal, bro.

You all gotta remember that Activision is at the end only a publisher. They're doing what they're supposed to be doing at the end. Sure, their methods on making the money are pretty unacceptable to gamers, but they're making the money at the end.

It matters becasue we're hating on a company who's doing what they're supposed to be doing, and they're doing it by any means. The gaming industry at the end is no more than just a form of business.

I hate them because they are greedy. Now I understand that companies want to make money, that is perfectly normal. The problem is that Activision are exploiting gamers and pretty much outright insulting their intelligence. GH extreme milkage, CoD:MW2 pricing game, lack of respect; they threaten Sony about the PS3's pricing only to later say they wish they could raise the price of games to ridiculous amounts, all while generating tons of profit.

activision makes fine games plenty of people enjoy. why all yall have to keep guzzling that haterade about things like 'guitar hero being too mainstream' is some serious lol material. news flash; guitar hero was NEVER 'underground'. my momma was playing guitar hero before half of the people on this board had probably played it, saw cooler people playing it, and decided they hate it.

yeah the 'new game every year per franchise' thing is kinda odd, but give the people what they want, right? obviously crap like madworld, pathologic and psychonauts are not what most people want. they're only doing what makes sense.

Maybe they don't want to dig in to find out what those games are like. Or maybe they only listen to marketing. Sales =/= quality, sales=/= what people want >.>

The games aren't even half bad, it's the ideas behind them. We can take the long dreadful road leading to activisions decline because they are not understanding the industry nor valueing the customers at all, taking a few good developers like double fine with them. Or we could make this as short and painless as possible by not buying into activisions plans.

You don't just pay for the games. You pay them for the games...

...Why on earth are you comparing it to MGS?

Anyway, *signs* I don't see why COD is so important and those dum devs want to make UK games cost £55, or possibly more. I think they are going to do that with MW2, and they are still selling cod4 £40, and it's nearly 2 years old.

ps3wizard45

I hate ACTIVISION. So far this year I have not bought ONE of their games NEW.

Far too many reason's why I hate ACTIVISION but I will post a few :

--------

ACTIVISION's KOTICK doesn't like NEW IP's,

Acti asks retailers to stop selling Rockband, Singstar, etc.

Guitar Hero 6 expansions in one year MILKING a series which has resulted in poor DLC content for my purchased copies...

Star Craft LAN,
Starcraft Pieces,

$60 MW2 PC,

Day one COD DLC,

ACTI suing Brutal Legend,

ACTI stealing-DJ Hero Lawsuit,

MW2 European Price Hike,

ACTI Rockband - Guitar Hero instruments,

Guitar Hero Smash Hits Overpriced,

Tony Hawk Milkage,

ACTI steals EA's RTS talent

Band Hero :roll: Nuff said,

PS3 threats for Price Drop,

ETC.

--------

This is off the top of my head without looking anything up...There's plenty more, but I'm done.

This is why I have hate and disgust for activision: When black ops 2 came out I complained about the probation for leaving matches early and told activision that I would not buy the DLC maps unless they withdrew probation. Probation went away for months, so I bought the DLC maps, now probation is back and I feel deceived, seems like shady business and I feel like you stole $50 from me. It is my XBOX360 and LIVE account, my internet connection and my game disc; I'll leave when and how I want and activision feels they need to punish me for it by putting me on probation when I log back on. What they really need to do is stop using customers connections for lobby hosting and improve their lobby process completely.

I don't *hate* activision, honestly if it wasn't for COD i actually would kind of like them. Hell even with COD, if they just released a game once every two years rather than every year i'd be okay with them. I think if they took some risks with the game it would be kind of nice (strike force missions were a good start imo).

I don't like them because instead of taking risks and making something awesome,they just churn out the same thing over and over and over and over. They did it with GH, COD and now they have all those skylanders which is a HUGE money grab.

I don't hate them... they really havn't done nothing wrong.

 

The only bad thing i can say is they sell as many companys then 99% of games dream of in a week.  They can litlerly put in more content into the cod and still make a profit. EASY but, they put in has much work as any other game

 

the other crap i hear on these forums about cod hate is a complete joke...
