WWII games, games against terrorist, communist, and insurgents dominate the gaming market. WWI games are very rare, and tend to sell poorly.

I've heard it argued that this is because of how entrenched/static the war was, and how limited it is compared to WWII. But the Eastern Front, Middle East, Balkans, and German invasion of Belgium were all fairly fluid at times and didn't have the same trench system the Western front did.

Between the trenches in the plains of France, the sheer scope of the East, the Alpine Warfare in Italy, the deserts in the Middle East, and the limited wars in Africa/the Pacific, I believe there is enough diversity to create an interesting game.

Is there any way to make WWI games more popular? Perhaps make a Call of Duty WWI game?
