If that is true, then the PS3 counts for less than 10% of all home console versions of the Playstation brand (PS2 and PS3). So, it does look like there is a justifiable case for the PS3 not being supported by Activision, if trends continue. If the percentage of total sales remains below 10%, and gets even worse, you can see Activision saying it isn't worth it, and they then decide to optimize their coding for the 360. And, in regards to the PS2, it should be seen as on its last legs. The PS3 doesn't play its games, and it doesn't do anything unique like the Wii, that appeals to casual fans. So, we are looking PSP and PS3, and if Activision drops the PS3, and Sony then says "No PSP for you", then Activision would go "fine".
EA didn't support the Dreamcast, so Activision MIGHT decide to not support the PS3 down the road, if sales remain as they are, and portion of the marketplace shrinks. Not saying this WILL happen, but MIGHT.
