Call of Duty development offer declined by Gearbox
During an interview several months ago with the German site KGN, Randy Pitchford stated that Gearbox only develops a game "when we can contribute to an existing brand something new - a kind of unique perspective and a new approach."
Mr. Pitchford does not feel that opportunity is present with the Call of Duty series.
Seeing how important the Call of Duty series is to Activision, and how dominant the game is due to a set formula the previous developers have followed each year, Pitchford went on to question just how much flexibility his studio would even have if they were to pursue the next Call of Duty.
Pitchford stated, "You have to play by the rules of the series." He then stated, "You have to do what is expected of a Call of Duty. In this I see but no real challenge for us. It would not strengthen our reputation as a studio, it would not be really motivating for our team."

TranzitTranzit I left this site months ago only to return to look for tranzit easter egg lobby and I have to say all of you are a bunch of little kid fan boys. The admins on this site are a bunch of ******* and the amount of love for a title such as call of booty black ops warefare III is just dumb. I hope all of you kids grow up and realise dropping 60 on a piece of **** video game is worthless when you can buy a bj for 30.
Cry me a river Nancy.

Personally, I think the Call of Duty series needs to end there is no where to go with it; they have done as much as they could of and people can tell that. Gamers are starting to get bored with the same fundamental stuff in Call of Duty. Activision needs to move on to bigger and better things. Dont get me wrong, The series was great but now I think it needs to end.

darkowl1991LuckyOtTer I like how you all thing just because it's gearbox they would have to have the same graphics as another game they made. Gearbox has made other games that look nothing like borderlands they even participated in Halo 1. I just don't understand how people can play the exact same game year after year.
Exactly they have made a lot more games then just borderlands. And in my opinion Brothers in arms is a better series then COD.
Brothers in arms is no where near as good as call of duty.
