I'm probably one of the few people who legitimately likes Call of Duty. I'm looking forward to this, maybe it's more stealth oriented since I'm assuming that's a sort of Ghost Op squad. I'd really like more melee kills. Like actual kill animations, not just swiping a knife and making the guy fall over.
COD ghosts sales are gonna smash through the roof at the speed of light flying fast past black ops 2, mw 3 and battlefield 3, with it coming out for pc, the 360, the ps3, the Infinity, the pS4, maybe the WiiU and mobile devices.
I see the game making billions surpassing black ops 2 which made $500 million in 24 hrs, selling 11 million copies it's first week and a billion dollars in the first 15 days. I see Ghosts making that much in half the time at most and reach around 3 billion in sales in 2013.

I gave up on it after MW2. This has done nothing to regain my excitement. CoD4:MW had the perfect balance between level size, number of players, areas which could be tactically defended, sniping sight lines, close combat, kill streak rewards etc. Every game since has been increasingly poor. I ended up borrowing mw3 and haven't even bothered with black ops 2.
Now they're touting the ability to customise what your character looks like as a great feature of an FPS. When only other people looking at your character will actually get to see what he looks like while you're playing unless you play in the shitty 3rd person view in which case you're a moron anyway.
Not much. The biggest changes are a couple new perks/care packages, a couple new guns maybe a diff story line and a slight graphics polish with the same engine. It's still arcade. Still fun. Gameplay mechanics and everything else has still been the same since. And why change it if it's been working. Sure there're complaints but the game, despite not changing much then game still seems to break the previous installment sales records.

"It turns out that the publisher was telling porkies, as the title will merely be operating on a “significantly upgraded” version of the technology that has powered the previous 357 entries in the series. That probably explains why last week’s debut trailer didn’t look so hot, huh?"
