I think it's more you want me to be upset. 

No, I'm genuinely interested in why you replied to the post I made in the way you did.

I don't buy the reason people are jumping ship is because of games. the PS3 is still loaded with games.  I do believe Call of Duty people who play those games on daily basis will be very upset about this and some will get an xbox as they should, frankly they all should go the xbox. The 360 is better suited for online gaming anyway.  

But the majority of gamers don't even play online anyway. And Black ops on the PS3 has close to 10 million users, i doubt 10,000 people have exchanged their PS3. It's typical articles to get views. 

You do realise what gives games like Call of Duty it's huge sales is down to the online right? If the online was not popular it would not do anywhere near the figures it has. Look through the sales and your see the COD with the crapest online is nearly -50% of the sales of Modern Warfare 1&2,Black Ops. Not to mention other games like Halo 3 or Reach. Those games get strong sales because of the reputation of it's online.

To try and play it off or imply that online is not popular is quite laughable really.
