Ok Kotick so what about dropping the PS3 support? Come on, do it, grow some balls.


What's with the comments like this? Kotick threatened to drop support - if Sony didn't drop the price. Well, Sony dropped the price.  Obviously, Kotick's threat worked and Sony buckled under the pressure.

Note - that last part was a joke. Honestly though, the snide comments about Kotick's threat are completely illogical. It comes off as nothing but sour grapes.

Sony's price drop didn't change anything yet for Activision, those figures would have been the same without the slim.


And what does that have to do with daring Kotick to drop PS3 support now after he got the price cut he asked for?

Kotick's comment was an empty threat; we all know that. The man is known for saying outrageous things - he's probably the most hated figure in the entire gaming industry right now. However, I'd think the time to make fun of that threat was before the price cut happened.

Technicalities...lol..kinda like Howie say he'd lose money on a price cut, and how that didn't make sense....a few months later...whammo...price cut, and it's cheered, by the same people who were defending his stance months earlier.
