@jcp, i know you don't know the production costs/overhead of the publishers, but just thinking broadly about the major cost inputs, a publisher doesn't really free up that much resources by deciding not to port to a particular platform, and definitely not enough to create a new title (you're saying they're going to create 2x the games for the price of 1?). also which titles are you referring to that are inferior on the ps3?
in terms of resources, atvi has $3bn of cash and $0 debt, so its not exactly like they are constrained here - as you mentioned before companies are in the business of maximizing profits, and bobby is a competent ceo - if there was good use for that cash to earn a better return vs sitting on their balance sheet, wouldn't they have done it already? no need for them to get cute and cut porting to one platform to save some incremental porting costs..
