Will Activision's famous World War II shooter be making its way to the Revolution's launch?
When the Revolution controller was unveiled, one of the genres it seemed best tailored for was First Person Shooters, and there's certainly been no shortage of speculation on what famous franchises might be Revolutionized in the coming years. The latest rumor on the subject comes via Got-Next, who claim that their "spy pirates" have confirmed a new iteration of Activision's Call of Duty series for Nintendo's newest console at launch and that it'll make special use of the innovative controller.
Spy pirates? Who hires pirates when ninjas are so much better for covert operations?
PGC contacted Activision, who had no comment on the matter, but we believe there's a strong possibility that, even if Call of Duty isn't a launch title, it'll show up sooner or later. Activision has already solidified its support for Revolution, and since Finest Hour and Big Red One appeared on the GameCube, there's not much of a reason for this new game to snub Nintendo.
But seriously, pirates? What were they thinking? They’re scurvy dogs!
If Got-Next's report is correct, though, the game will be handled by EXAKT Entertainment, the same developer that ported True Crime: Streets of LA and Finest Hour to the GameCube. Based on the company's history, this sounds reasonable, but we won't know for sure until E3 or whenenever launch titles are revealed.
