Will Gears Of War Ever Go Multiplat?

I do not think it is stupid. We purchase televisions, mp3 players, personal computers, and DVD players without having content exclusive to any one of those entertainment devices. Aside from first-party releases, multiplatform games are the direction the industry is heading. 

 

 

And I think it's stupid. So what's the point of MULTIPLE systems then? I love my PS3 for - Uncharted, Heavenly Sword, LBP, MGS4, Resistance 1 & 2, Motorstorm 1 & 2, Gran Turismo 5P, and looking forward to: Heavy Rain, Killzone 2, God of War 3, inFAMOUS, FF Versus XIII, Uncharted 2, Gran Turismo 5 and so on and so on. I love my 360 for - Gears of war 1 & 2, PGR 3 & 4, Mass Effect, the Dead or Alive series, and looking forward to: Alan Wake, Left 4 Dead, OF COURSE the next Gears and so on... See where I'm going - exclusives MAKE a console, not multiplatform games that take no advantage of a specific console and are only present to make money, to me that's NOT GOOD for gamers. So would you rather Gears be multi or Killzone be multi? If they were, they would not be the games that they are (Gears 2)/gonna be (KZ2).

but there is good for gamers, here this compitition forces console makers to cut prices sell at a loss, all in order to atract us. they try crazy new ips that will be just on their system that otherwise would not have come out (LBP).  if there was just one console that was on market it might cost more then is resonable and never lower it (look at the ps3 launch price), have major issues with hardware and decided to not fix it (xbox 360 for a year and a half), or just keep a high margin that is kept for the life of the console (the wii so far)
