With the correct software they could. CoD saved them this gen.

People still look through their console glasses instead of their software glasses. This gen more than any should have changed that.

edit: said software would probably have to be bigger than Wii Sports and Wii Fit combined.

CoD saved them from what?

CoD saved them from insignificance.

Without CoD, 360 and PS3(moreso) lose all their system sellig games. Without system sellers you don' sell consoles. Even the N64 had Goldeneye.

Alright. Just wanted to clarify what you were trying to say.

So, the only system selling games on the PS360 were CoD?

*checks list of best-selling games for PS360*

...seems legit.

I see CoD in the same way as Goldeneye for the N64.

I'm not saying Mario 64 and Ocarina are crap, I'm just saying Goldeneye saved the N64 from insignficance. Obviously last gen leftovers like GTA, Halo and GT play a part but only by staying relevant instead of breaking new ground.

What do you mean by 'insignificance'. If you mean in terms of sales, then I don't know why you're describing the N64 & PS360 with the same word. PS360 without CoD would have been alot more 'significant' than the N64 without Goldeneye.

EDIT: Oh, and Halo & GTA both broke into new ground
