Treyarch's Call of Duty: World at War hasn't even stormed the beaches yet, but Activision is already talking about the next full installment in the series. In a half-day analysts' presentation yesterday, Activision Publishing president and CEO Mike Griffith confirmed that franchise creator Infinity Ward would be returning to develop the next Call of Duty game, which he referred to as Call of Duty 6 and pegged as a 2009 release.

As for World at War, Griffith talked about Activision's efforts to monetize the franchise's online play. Specifically, he said that the Treyarch game would have three times the downloadable content as Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, and mentioned "Day One Advantage" premium content. Later in the presentation, the Day One Advantage was explained as "the ability to accelerate your experience points when you play online."

Griffith said that the publisher was looking hard at additional ways of expanding the game's business model, and noted there was "tremendous opportunity" to bring the series to new "theaters, game designs, and plotlines" in the future.

Mega Man - A series with 500000000000000 rehashes. First through fourth game in a new series will all be great, then it gets old with occasional splashes of greatness.

Madden - A Series with 50000000000 rehashes. All are the same game.

Call of Duty - A series with 4 rehashes only one of them good.

Activision isnt even involved in COD:WaW... I Love COD4 and I look forward to what activision plan on bringing to the table for COD6. I dont think COD5 will be as popular as COD4 as it took a step away from WW2 game like 98% of other FPS games

Activision is involved.  Infinity Ward isn't.
