CALL OF DUTY GETS A MONTLY SUBSCRIPTION

If anyone pays for this they should have all their videogames taken away as punishment.

Exactly. This needs to fail hard so others companies don't try it. Otherwise, we will begin to see the era of subscription fees for every game....

It's going to be a success. Enough people spend money on Facebook games and other such bullshit for it not to. 

"Don't forget to buy your CoD point card, kiddies, located next to the Mafia Wars cards at your local retailer!"

I'd like to think otherwise, though.

If it's worth it, people will pay for it. COD-obsessed guys (I still find it weird that they exist in 2011, but ok) will pay, but it'll be interesting to see if this generates meaningful revenue for Activision.

With the exception of L4D and Red Faction: Guerrilla, I find most modern competitive multiplayer uninspired. I'll get my angry-letter-writing-pen out when they demand a subscription fee for single player games.

Updated the article with the atrocious trailer.

"It's as if social networking and e-sports had a baby. And then gave it a flamethrower." Me turning off the trailer.

What is it about COD marketing that makes me want to take a shower?

Speaking as someone who has owned the last 3 titles I won't be doing this.

Those that do are dumb.

So this thing includes licensed music to use in fan videos?

This article title scared me. Good damn thing it's for "extras" and not the multiplayer itself, that would have caused riots(and still made a ton of cash).
