The name CoD6 more popular than MW2

Posted by herald On June - 27 - 2009

OTX reveals that Modern Warfare 2 without the tag of Call of Duty is less popular in the US market. OTX says this from its survey.

It said that the awareness of MW2 there has dropped from 40 percent points to 20 percent points without the name of Call of Duty in it.

Nick Williams of the GamePlan Insights division for OTX said, “Up until the beginning of May, OTX had been tracking the title as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. More specifically, we asked a representative group of gamers in the U.S. whether or not they had heard of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. At that time, approximately 40 percent of all gamers in the U.S. claimed that they had heard of this title.”

He also further said, “However, once it became clear that Activision was positioning the title as Modern Warfare 2, OTX removed ‘Call of Duty’ from the consumer survey, and the awareness levels dropped to 20 percent. In other words, the Call of Duty brand association essentially doubles the awareness for the game. That is quite a remarkable statistic.”

Earlier this month the OTX had found through their survey that consumers’ purchase intent for MW2 ranked high. It further reveals that it was still behind games including Bungie’s Halo 3: ODST, Nintendo’s New Super Mario Bros., Sony’s God of War 3, Square Enix’s Final Fantasy XIII and Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed 2.

  11. OH MY C.O.D Said,

    I think cod6 is gunna be gay if it doesnt have any of the old character in except from soap cos u really get to see the characters personality and then they just chuck away the great old one’s and plonk in some new ones because the characters can be funny and the characters make the game wicked

    so if they h ave tonnes of new ones i dont think it will be the same cod theme

    Seriously, OH MY COD, get a fucking life-there not bringing back the characters and you would now that if could actually beat the game. COD 6 looks very similar to COD 4 and I think thats good as the system and gameplay was great. And just becuase you get different charecters doesn’t mean it’s the end of the world. I hope this email doesn’t upset anyone (excpet OH MY COD becuase he’s an oversensitive douchebag)

This October comes the challenge of Modern Warfare and Battlefield: Bad Company. Medal of Honor of Electronic Arts is being released on October 12 and it will challenge both the games for the top spot in the FPS genre.

Last week at E3 gaming event the stills and multi-player footage were released. The footage bound to bring comparison with the MW2 and BBC2.

The styles of the game is similar to the MW2 and BBC2, but MoH appears to concentrate on points and not focus on kills as MW2 does.

Below is the footage of Medal of Honor:
