So basically he's saying that it costs too much to develop games for a company that's not making him much money? How dare he?

That isn't a sound business strategy at all. This is why Activision isn't a very strong 3rd party developer.

 

They are actually the strongest 3rd party developer after dethroning EA a couple years ago.

Some people just don't get it...

Some people just can't see the forest for the trees ...

Not including the Guitar Hero or Call of Duty games, Activision has sold (roughly) 5 Million games on the PS3; and while none of those games are "System Sellers" their combined influence on people's purchasing habits is probably similar to a 5 Million selling game series. Although the loss of one publisher isn't the end of the world, if it motivates other publishers to make similar actions it can really hurt a platform.
