[QUOTE=Melnek;22218090]So what?
The Half Life series also had a bunch of games. Does that mean they're milking the cash cow too? Just because they don't switch titles or make games with new concepts doesn't mean they're milking anything. They know what they're best at and they're going to continue making games, and people are going to buy them. Weather you like it or not.[/QUOTE]
Let's look at every Half-Life game, period:
Half-Life, PC
Opposing Force, PC
Blue Shift, PC, Dreamcast (cancelled)
HL1 + Decay, PS2
Half-Life 2, PC, XBox, 360, PS3
HL2E1, PC, 360, PS3
HL2E2, PC, 360, PS3
Half-Life Deathmatch, PC (free with HL)
Half-Life Source, PC (free with later editions of HL2)
Half-Life Deathmatch Source, PC (free with later editions of HL2)
Half-Life 2 Deathmatch, PC, free with HL2
Half-Life 2 Lost Coast, PC, free tech demo
Half-Life 2 Survivor, Arcade
And if you want to be really picky, the demo Uplink has original content, and Portal is technically in the HL canon. Upcoming is one game, Episode 3. That's 13 games, 17 if you count everything possible.
Now, let's look at the Call of Duty games:
Call of Duty
Call of Duty: United Offensive
Call of Duty: Finest Hour
Call of Duty 2
Call of Duty 2: Big Red One
Call of Duty 3
Call of Duty: Roads to Victory
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Reflex
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (DS Tie-in)
Call of Duty: World at War
Call of Duty: World at War: Final Fronts
Call of Duty: World at War (DS Tie-in)
Call of Duty: World at War: Zombies
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Mobilized
Upcoming are three games, one untitled, Black Ops, and Modern Warfare 3. That's 16 games, 19 if you count everything possible.
That's a difference, but not too much. Now look at the time scales. Valve made 13 Half-Life games in twelve years, or just over 1 game a year. The CoD franchise got 16 installments in 7 years, over two games a year. Even if you consider Modern Warfare a separate series, that's 11 games in 7 years and 5 games in 3 years, still more than Half-Life.
Arguments about multiple developers are invalid, as Half-Life involved Valve, Gearbox and Taito.

I used to get decent looking girls before, then I bought this long sleeve men's t-shirt. Let me tell you, the quality is great, but the effects of the fashion statement the shirt sent to women after was even better. I've never gotten so much pussy in my entire life![/quote]

[QUOTE=z0nk3d;22218458]I never said that CoD was the only game getting milked, and I never said HL wasn't getting milked too.

HL2 is a series game, CoD is a game with multiple series.
