No, these are 2 totally different games! Call of duty World at war does not have the number 5 in the name thus it is not cod5. Some people may think that since it came after cod4 it must be called cod5, WRONG! In between the first call of duty and cod waw there has been more than 5 games out for the series thus once again showing proof that cod waw is not cod5.

Please post what you guys think about this.

It's tough to decide but to me personally it is CoD5, just due to the amount of acknowledgement it's achieved and the detail that the game includes. The only mainstream CoD games that do not have a number in their title is United Offensive (which was a expansion so doesn't count), and CoD The Big Red One. Both these games do not come anywhere near close the achievement of CoD WaW and therefore IMO it is entitled to be the next main CoD game. Furthermore the multiplatform format also helps it achieve the title of CoD5.

I think COD series will have different names and numerations from here on. the latest ones were COD4: Modern Warfare, COD: WaW... see? There's no 5 in it, but the next COD game will be COD: MW 2. It's a mess if you ask me :p

Yes, it can be called CoD 5 just as MW2 can also be called CoD 6. I know, there were a bunch of older CoD games that don't have numbers but they are all either expansion packs or console versions of CoD 1 & 2. Either way, I don't think we will see a return to an old numbering scheme as Infinity Ward bought the rights to the franchise so they will probably do MW2 (and possibly 3 who knows), then start something else with a new numbering system.

I agree with RebornInFlames, it might not be called COD 5, but considering it came out after 4 and 6 is coming out later this year (hopefully-can't wait) I think it doesnt matter, besides all my friends call it call of duty 5

It's Call of Duty 5 for me. And Call of Duty: MW2 will be Call of Duty 6, even if they - most likely - won't mention it. By now Activision must have dropped the initial numbers entirely.

It annoys me so much when people call it CoD 5 because theres no 5, glad you made this thread. At the same time I think they should have put a 5 or else this wouldn't of happened.

Technically it's not Call of Duty 5 it's Call of Duty: World at War but everyone calls it CoD5.

Just because it comes after the 4th one, people think that it's CoD5.

They haven't made a CoD5 but when they do, THAT will be CoD5 not World at War.

When Activision made the official announcement of Modern Warfare 2, they referred to WaW as CoD5 and MW2 as CoD6. http://www.joystiq.com/2008/09/16/infinity-wards-call-of-duty-6-aiming-for-2009-release/

Not even close.

WWII games should be dead, and WaW cannot be described as a proper sequel to CoD4

No it is not, duh. Do you see a five at the end of the name? No. And before you even try it there have been way more than five Call of Duty games so far. So no, it is not the fifth Call of Duty. Something more like the eleventh. If they wanted it to be Call of Duty 5, they;d have put the five in the name some where.

Well I'm sure people will call MW:2 the 6th CoD and no one will complain, its just because the people that hate WaW are trying to find a reason to seperate it from CoD4 MW.

It's CoD 5 in the sense that it's the fifth major release in the Call of Duty series. But as for people calling CoD:WaW "CoD 5" just because it came out after CoD 4: yeah I suppose they're somewhat wrong for doing that. But I don't really care.

I agree.

Yes, it can be called CoD5 because it is the 5th game in the main series. Activision just decided to drop the numbering scheme in the game titles now because by 2013 everyone will notice how badly they are milking the **** out of the franchise every year when CoD10 comes out.

I thought World at War was 5 too, but I read up on some stuff a few days ago saying that the next Installment after Call of Duty : Modern Warfare 2(which is coming out sometime this year) is going to be Call of Duty 5:Future War. But i don't know the entire story just yet.

Lol, there are already more than five Call of Duty games. Completely different situation. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Sand Andreas were major GTA releases. Does that mean Vice City should be GTA IV, San Andreas should be GTA V and GTA IV should be GTA VI?
