Call of Duty: Ghosts tracking to be 'most pre-ordered' game of year
"Call of Duty is an entertainment juggernaut and cultural phenomenon. We are excited for the upcoming release of the new installment of this blockbuster franchise, Call of Duty: Ghosts," said Gamestop exec. Bob Puzon. "We look forward to celebrating the worldwide November launch of this great game that is on track to be the most pre-ordered title of the year."
The statement by the mega retailer comes as a slight surprise, given the annualized release of the series had yet to show fatigue, especially in the face of next week's Grand Theft Auto 5 launch.
Last month, Activision Publishing CEO Eric Hirshberg was quite clear that pre-orders for Ghosts were "well below the record-setting pace set by Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 last year."
"Our quantitative consumer research indicates that hesitation amongst past COD pre-orderers is primarily due to not knowing which platform they will be playing on, which is natural at this time in the console transition," said Hirshberg recently, referring to the imminent launches of PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

This isn't a surprise to me. Cod is just a huge series and it's so hard for other companies to compete.

Just because you don't like it does not mean it is garbage. It is one of the most bought series ever...

I'm not sure, I love the way GTA V looks, but Ghosts looks stunning to be honest.

I think it is, GTA V is probably right behind it with pre-orders, but CoD looks honestly great this year.

2014CommonSenselolohnoeszszCommonSense Only children call people tryhards. And by tryhard you mean they don't **** around and actually try to win. Phuck them for trying to win, right?1. i'm no child and children don't call others tryhards. 2. tryhards are your taking it too seriously and by way too much. not going into massive detail but you get the picture.
You sound like the type of person who makes fun of people for doing their homework.
For someone whose name is Common Sense can you please use it and realize that not all CoD players are children or tryhards
How ironic. You should take your own advice. When did he say any of those things?
