But... why... CoD is Activision's 2nd biggest brand (after WoW). They could go REALLY BIG with it on handhelds. It makes 0 sense to me. Are they afraid people will buy the Vita game instead of BLOPS2?
Because it fucking sucks and they want a cash in.
They don't want anything shown probably because the game is so bad.

LMAO, they know that the handheld sales will be like 2% of total sales, so they frankly don't give a shit and don't want to waste resources on a product that will generate so little revenue.

Are you being serious right now?
They're not showing anything because the game is a steaming pile of shit and they're hoping people will buy it on name alone without seeing the finished product..... Because the finished product is ass.

Worst Tweet?
"Activision pushed for that, to their credit."
That's some passive aggressive responding!
Is this the most secretive game release of 2012?

Ok guys I think I get it now. I was not following the game very well (WHERE to follow it, lol). Now I kind of understand why Activision is playing it low with it.

That sure is a lot of apologizing for a game that isn't even out yet? Anyone wanna predict some Meta scores with me? I'll go with 53.
Considering how reviewers review Vita games. They're going to give it a low score for not having all the things the console versions have.

Yet, liek stated 100x over Sony doesn't seem to give a $hit about the VITA right now and this could be the biggest seller to date, but in print it sucks, from what we've seen it sucks, both Sony and Activision are giving it the Sloth from Goonies treatment, so WTF is the problem here, it doesn't make sense at all that they wouldn't time time and resources into it....

I'm not going to guess a score (since i have no idea
), but i think it will be low mainly because many of the reviews will have focus on comparing to a console version.Entire campaign's been uploaded online. The guy who uploaded it beat it in approx 5 hours.
Spoilers, obviously.

Despise all the issues it has, i really loved burning skies, i wanted to try declassified too, but man, the price is just too much...
Well, just like the Vita-trolls on GAF, sales numbers are far more important right now to Sony/Activision than actual quality.
This game was probably given a minimal budget, but will still turn into Vita's biggest seller to date since it's clear it had a drop-dead finish date to be met before Black Friday.

Seriously, should I cancel my pre-order and pick up AC Liberation and or NFS instead? Amyone have any info on this game? I just wanted another FPS after playing Resistance and enjoying it for the most part.
It's probably safe to say that if you enjoyed Burning Skies, you'll enjoy this. Re-skinned game and all. Joking.
Kind of.

yer got me excited too
I was more surprised about the campaign at all =) Since i've heard that the single player part is onlu survival/horde mode. EDIT: I forgot that there is suppose to be Spec Ops like missions.
There hasnt been much information about the game, so it will probably go under the radar.
fabricated backlash

Did they actually tweet things like 'No Ladders'?
Sounds like they hate that they were given the game more than anyone else
I think they hate the fact that they've been caught in the middle between Sony just caring about the COD brand on the Vita, and Activision not willing to commit resources or time to help them with the game.
From the dev. Comments it's pretty clear that Nihilistic was shafted when it came to funding, proper dev. time and support.

Considering they basically charge console prices for Vita games, that seems fair. I guess if the game costs 33% less, it should have 33% less content. Blops 2 is going to be comprised of Single Player, Multiplayer and Zombie mode, right? From the getgo they are ditching zombie mode for Declassified (ie. 33% of the game), so for the price to be justified it should logically have an equally large single player campaign and the full multiplayer suite available in Blops 2, right? Or would you settle for less if it was your money?
I don't really care how it reviews. As a Vita owner, I would love for this to be a great game, but I can't say I have a ton of faith in Nihilistic, having played one of their previous games, and that is moreso what I was basing my score "prediction" on.
I'm not the biggest COD fan but I have both Black Ops 2 and Declassified preordered this year. I couldn't pass up the $39.98 Walmart.ca E3 deal or the $35 Futureshop deal. Looking forward to blowing the dust off my Vita actually. Wonder if the Canadian version comes with the code for the PSP COD?
Fuck, the graphics are amazing. Nihilistic redeemed.

I hope you don't really think you were just watching Declassified. That was clearly an A button prompt and I'm pretty sure the Vita doesn't have an A button.
Was planning on doing a "late OT" (as in the same day of release, after having the game) kinda like the one I did for Modern Warfare 3 on Wii last year. Since bothwere on a similar position (MW3 on Wii was kidna worse, as no pictures or videos were released of it).
Oh well.
At least there is one. XD

Yep, that's how I feel about it as well.
Hey man arnt they basicly nearly the same game?
I'm not sure actually as I've not read much on either. All I know is the PS3 version will have Zombies but the Vita doesn't not and I can play the Vita version while having a shit.
