People shit on the COD series for milking that franchise as much Activision does but Nintendo do the exact same thing and people love them. I mean nintendo has been releasing the same 5 games since the 80s and 90s and people just love them for it. For both the COD series and most if not all of the nintendo series if you've played one then you've played them all. Its just something I dont get and why people have to be hypocrites with their likes and dislikes for franchises/companies is something I also dont get.
Lets not generalize here...Mario and Kirby have been milked a ton. Zelda not so much, each one of those games have been unique and incredible, bringing new ideas and fresh stories along each and EVERY time. Sure there's the occasional remake, but that's no reason to get mad at a company. Smash Bros has really changed it up between games; maybe not to the common eye, but to a loyal follower, there have been major changes across the board. And if you dig deeper into other franchises like Fire Emblem, Pokemon, Animal Crossing and Metroid, you'll know that the developers have been working a hell of a lot harder than anyone at Activision.
On a side note: I'm pumped for Smash Bros.
mmmm nope, zelda has been pretty much the same thing everytime. just because you add 1 new item/gimmick doesnt make it a whole new interesting game.
all of those other IPs have been around for at least 10 years and haven't really changed besides

Look at the difference between the newest one (between two worlds) and ocarina, and skyward sword, and mm. Those games are so different if Link wasn't in them you'd call them a different game. Look at the difference between CODBO, and CODMW2, and there isnt one. You just get dropped into the middle of a war, handed an AK (I'm looking at you airport scene), and just gun down a few hundred people. the end.
