I’ve read that World at War used the same engine as Call of Duty 4, but it’s hard to believe: the fourth game’s videos were always sexy and impressive, whereas this one is a great step back.
It’s making it harder to believe that Call of Duty 3, by the same developer, was a semi-failure only because they didn’t have time to polish it; with one more year, and a proven engine, they’re not doing something too exciting either, it seems.
Even though it’s obviously too early to have a definitive opinion, this video does confirm my instincts: this idea of alternating a same franchise between two separate development studios, so that you get a game each year, is completely stupid.
