Nixian Channel Description:
We’re lifelong video game enthusiasts with a passion for showing the world how our favorite hobby has grown with us, from individual series to industry-wide retrospectives.
We put significant time and creative effort into each one of our videos, including research, digging into archives, recording voiceovers, and editing. Every video takes as many as 10 hours to produce, because we strive to give our fans consistent, high-quality content.
Our popular “Evolution of…” series goes far beyond simply presenting gameplay footage. We take the time to show how a video game property — its gameplay, character designs, graphics, sound direction, etc. — have evolved over time. We include unique voiceover work on each video to enhance the viewing experience.
People have been playing video games for decades. In that time, we’ve gone from moving a white line up and down to block a moving pixel, to participating in full-fledged, painstakingly rendered real-time battles with people all over the world. We help older gamers look back on how these experiences have changed throughout their lives, and new gamers to understand the broader context of the series they’re playing for the first time today.
The video game medium never stops growing, and we’ll never stop chronicling its evolution.
Editing and voice-over were made by me.
Call of Duty is now a dead franchise going further beyond 2023, all because Activision didn't quite get the message to stay out of political conflicts and instead took sides with Target and Bud Light, well they can now join the boycott list of companies to not do business with.
You forget call of duty finest hour and call of duty roads to victory
but then before Call of Duty there was Day of Defeat made by Activision & Valve then Soldier of Fortune by Activision & Raven
Black Ops 2 will always be the best
Look at how normal the first games are. They arent lies.Modern COD games are just unreal tournament games with military skins. YOU CAN LITERALLY RUN FASTER THAN VEHICLES and jump while shooting accurately. It's just fornite. Why do people like this stupid game? 🤣😆 It's embarrassing. But i get it……..i mean, there's a reason children dont like games like Arma, or Tarkov, or Original Rainbow or Ready or not…its boring for them, because they are kids, and children are limited in their capacity to understand things. So i guess that's thats the answer. Cheers! 😊
All call of duty games have special place in my heart
After Call of Duty MW2 the franchise was completely shit. Only Call of Duty MW 2019 is even close to a good game, but nothing will ever compare to COD1, COD2, COD 3, COD4 MW, COD WAW, COD MW2 and COD Black Ops 1. Call of Duty Modern Warfare is probably the greatest game ever created in video game history.
Cod 1-3 was the first for me I'm gonna be honest though I never heard of black ops 4
ı am still playing cod 1 cuz my pc laging on other games
also black ops ds, mw2 ds, mw3 ds, finest hour, road to victory, world at war final front, cod mobile, black ops declassified.and a lot more
What evolution?
I hate the "we stopped playing world war games" narrative, gaming companies decided we don't play them anymore cos they can't monetize them.
After MW3, everything else was basically the same with a new coat of paint and some added detail. As a result I went straight on to Battlefield 3 and 4 with bigger maps, more players, vehicles and more importantly destructible environments with fantastic game changing levolution. Battlefield at the time offered so much more than the never ending copy paste formula of COD. I'm so glad I packed COD in when I saw how awful BO2 was.
Edit – But it still doesn't take away the memories of the great times I had playing mainly MW2 and MW3 and how good they were.Ah the nostalgia, never see those times again.

You need another black image alongside the others in the thumbnail with the year 2042 on it, because by that time we have hopefully moved on from this repetitive shit xD

CoD World at War – last good Call of Duty… Mickey Mouse shooters every since…
They need to make a call of duty movie bruh
In recent times, call of duty actually devolved. Losing many features that made call of duty great.
Crazy that they haven't made a good game since 2012
Finest Hour for me was the best for story and campaign. Graphics were not great but what a great game. Big Red One was probably my second favorite. All the others didn’t quite cut it for me.
Man, cod went downhill so fast and so far compared to the older games
Suprised zombies wasn't mentioned. It was a huge deal with WAW and Black ops and probably what a lot of people spent doing on those games. Seriously fun game mode that is seldom seen today.
gg
And xbox is about to own all of them damn
Tea bagging the dead still remains the same 😂
all ps1/2 games were better in quality graphics gameplay storytelling etc. than shit new games
You missed world at war final fronts for the ps2
the last call of duty is cod mw2 (2009) the rest is shit
Real call of duty https://youtu.be/TkhwpOCXx08
when crated games d33ks who never been in army 😂😂😂
Where is ops 2
nice
They got worse each time.
My favorite one is call of duty mobile
2008 looks far older then 2007 modern warfare
Wow all of my child hood game ❤❤❤
By me cod ghosts is one of the beyt cod of call of duty frenchies
I liked ghost recon but our world was destroyed so where you gofrom there?
I wasn't big on advanced warfare or Advanced warfare.
COD Black Ops 2010 will always be my favorite. It's the first video game I finished and the multiplayer menu theme will aways give me chills.
2:55 Oh yeah Hahn Simmon
For me the COD 2 was the best… So immersive playing as a soviet soldier.
Only 1 and 2
Mw3 was slept on, probably the best call of duty of all time.
