The criticism that annually released games are just '$70 reskins' or 'glorified DLC' is often pretty valid - as a long-time FIFA (now EA FC) player, it's a debate I've heard countless times now. However, in the past, I always felt that criticism was slightly unfair when targeted at Call of Duty. Sure, it's a similar formula each time, but there was always enough variation in characters, setting, weaponry, maps, and modes that the next game never felt totally rehashed. In recent times, though, I find myself struggling to defend CoD on that topic. The series' decision to do back-to-back Modern Warfare games and then consecutive Black Ops games over the last four years has been a questionable one. Now, with Black Ops 7 clearly struggling and falling below expectations, it's deciding to scrap that plan for the future.Read the full story on PCGamesN: Following Black Ops 7 woes, Call of Duty finally sees sense and says no more back-to-back series releases
