Treyarch has Zombies over IW. I know some people don't really care about that, but it is incredibly popular. As a progression I feel like Trey has gotten better whereas IW has been pretty stagnant. This release should be the determiner of how the two shape up. We should all hope BO2 is incredible though. Competition between the companies will only give us a better franchise.

Oh sure, zombies is a great game mode. I was talking about multiplayer.

Re: CoD: Black OPs 2
I agree that BO was better than MW3. I also agree with every gripe above about BO. But I had more fun for more time with that game than any other in my life, so they must have done something right.
MW3 can be very fun, but it's often a chore to play. As far as support, IW is good this time around because the bar was set so low from MW2, imo.
I'm curious, though. If MW3 came out instead of MW2 back in 2009 when everything was still fresh, would we have enjoyed it as much as MW2 before the exploits took over?

It's hard to call these two companies competitors since they're both owned by the same company.

Wholly Owned Subsidiary
Also, from Wiki: "The parent and the subsidiary do not necessarily have to operate in the same locations, or operate the same businesses, but it is also possible that they could conceivably be competitors in the marketplace. Also, because a parent company and a subsidiary are separate entities, it is entirely possible for one of them to be involved in legal proceedings, bankruptcy, tax delinquency, indictment and/or under investigation, while the other is not."

You'd be crazy to think the two aren't competitive with each other. Every COD title breaks or attempts to break records and is insanely popular. You don't think IW/Treyarch both want to be ones to say they sold more copies than the other?

Re: CoD: Black OPs 2
I think Black Ops 2 will be terrible.
That said I will buy it and attempt to win prizes via ELITE. This saddens me.
