Not necessarily, publishers will still need PC sales to make many games viable.
As for software as a service- you already pay a subscription to Live to play anything on line, and I'd be very surprised if IW.NET didn't eventually become a subscription service. In fact, given Activision's comments today, it looks like a given.
This is why PC gamers are so pissed- the concept of paying for online play and map packs has now been established and embraced and companies are being encouraged to push further and further away from a great value model to one in which you end up paying again and again. I really don't understand why console gamers aren't pushing the other way and demanding the benefits that PC gamers have had. You should be backing us up, rather than bending over for the publishers.
