Modern Warfare 2 reacquires 'Call of Duty' branding?

Nobody seems sure what's going on with Modern Warfare 2's title. First, everyone assumed that the game would be named 'Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2,' but then we received word that the game was dropping 'Call of Duty' from its name. Now, however, VG247 reports that Activision referred to the game as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 during its quarterly earnings call.
Activision, please just settle on a title. That way, we wouldn't have to keep changing it in our database.
With or without 'Call of Duty,' Modern Warfare 2 will arrive later this year.

I dont care about the name as long as it is better than CoD4.

Yeah they need to make up their mind. Maybe when the numbers were released that showed how well World at War's map pack 1 was selling, they realized that dropping the franchise tag wasn't such a great idea. Hardcore fans will always know what's what, but there are many casual fans who may not buy it if it doesn't say Call of Duty.
The whole thing is confusing though. They argue over whether or not World at War is part 5... I think they should always use the call of duty name in the title, but just drop the numbers. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is fine. But Call of Duty 6: Modern Warfare 2 would be dumb.

See what I'm saying? I only mentioned the World at War/5 thing and already people here are getting defensive. Haha! It's ridiculous. The correct answer of course is this: Who gives a crap? Drop the numbers after Call of Duty and just give future games a secondary title like World at War or Modern Warfare.
