Your argument falls when comparing sales to other consoles, the Activision CEO states "rate of attachment" is the problem.

Let's compare multiplatform releases for an accurate comparisson (So no CoD2, GH2, etc which all sold millions on the 360)

That list is SO broken. Kung Fu Panda, Lego Indy, and Marvel were heavily bundled. CoD3 was a launch PS3 game, and then everything below, barring Prototype just sucked. Unless you're trying to prove that 360 owners buy a lot more crap games than PS3 owners

 

You should of read the whole thread before posting, all your points have already been mentioned and replied too

 

And the point is that if gamers don't buy games  (crappy or not), than developers will move to another console.
