The Lead Editor of GameObserver.com gives us his wish list for 2011 - what games he would like to see this year, which games he wants to see less of, what trends he would like to see changed, etc. He pulls no punches by throwing a few jabs at companies he feels are polluting our industry.

No more Call of Duties

For the love of God, Activision, just call it something else. Most COD games have little-to-no resemblance to one another. They are just shooters with extravagant set pieces and an over-exaggerated appetite for glorifying war. It first started as a pretender to the WW2 throne trying to capitalize on the success of Medal of Honor, then “it” jumped on the modern warfare bandwagon popularized by Battlefield. Now we have Black Ops. What’s next in this call for profit? COD: SWAT? COD: Submariner? COD: Aircraft Carrier Controller? Just stop. Call it whatever you want, but get the COD out.
