The expectation for Call of Duty Black Ops 2 collapses - GamerZona (blog)

The survey carried out by the CVG website reveals that the new Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 does not create the same excitement that made the previous entries, not into the list of the 10 most anticipated games. It is simply a survey, but it may be a telling sign.

With Modern Warfare 3 not yet released, many users and any other analyst claimed that the Call of Duty franchise had reached its peak, and that were already the first signs of which to this day remains the most successful signing of the video game industry. Many blamed this apparent crisis to a lack of major news title after title. However, AC was responsible for demonstrating that the franchise by much criticism received, was still able to beat its own records of sale.

But one thing were the results in the market and another sensation that was giving the franchise. And this idea of a certain crisis or deadlock was still present, since, despite their tremendous success, Modern Warfare 3 failed to conquer the heart of many of its users.

Now it is the turn of Black Ops 2, which created a great expectation in the moments that began talking about the new Call of Duty. An expectation that was in crescendo with its official announcement.

However, by one hand, once shown videos, screenshots and new details on a title that promise great innovations, the interest of the public seems to have not reached the dimensions in which we were exactly a year ago, with the release of AC to view.

Now, the recent survey carried out by the CVG portal among its readers, seems to confirm that kind of stagnation in the expectation raised by Call of Duty. And it is that, as it can be seen in the outcome on the most anticipated games that are to come, Black Ops 2 is not listed among the top ten, declining even as 15th.

The list, as we said, is led by the new GTA V, that consolidates as well as the title of the most anticipated, exceeding a certain margin to the recently presented Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes. Thirdly, the new great jewel of Naughty Dog, The Last of Us, sharing with Assassin's Creed IIIscore. Closes this privileged list expected BioShock: Infinite.

It is true that it is a simple survey carried out by a portal, but could be considered perfectly as an indication that he would support the thesis of the Call of Duty franchise is showing signs of fatigue, and it does not generate the interest that does well little caused.
