I'm heartbroken :roll:. Pretty smart use of cash though, now little kids with lack of internet skills are gonna proclaim Black Ops as a 360 game :evil:

Waste of money by MS. The 360 version will trounce the PS3 version in sales anyway so why bother. The last CoD game was still #10 in sales on the 360 according to NPD in July.
But this was advertising in the UK. Does anyone know if its the same situation in the US? According to VGChartz (:o oh noez) the PS3 version just about outsold the 360 version, although i don't know specific UK numbers.Waste of money by MS.

I'm not sure how the 360 selling 3 million more copies equals the PS3 nearly outselling the 360. BUT I didn't think it was that close
The REAL question here is where is the Wii logo!?!?!?!?!VideoGameGuyI had no idea COD black Ops was coming to the Wii, but now that you mention it, Treyarch has released all of their COD games on the Wii this gen.

We will see...
Microsoft is doing all it can to make Black Ops appear like a Xbox exclusive so that the unsuspecting public immediately associates the game with Xbox. They tried to do the same thing with Grand Theft Auto (which was, interestingly enough, originally going to be a PS3 exclusive).
$50 million for early release rights to MW2 map packs + $50 million for early release rights to Episodes of Liberty City = 100 million annoying pre-teens on Xbox Live.
activision could risk losing the support of sony gamers and force themselves to rely on one console to survive.
I hope people won't get it but, yeah. Every bit helps though. Activision is playing into all the greed in the industry. And sony/ms have lots of it. So we're stuck to this activision crap for some time.activision could risk losing the support of sony gamers and force themselves to rely on one console to survive.

I think it's actually a smart move by M$ in terms of profit. It all makes sense now. See they raised the price of Live just in time for Black Ops' release, and now they are advertising for Black Ops so more people will buy it on 360, which means more people are going to fork over their money for Live to play Black Ops. Damn, $$$ right there, props to M$ for such haxorz business decision, mystervj
i know right? MS actually makes smart and legal business decisions like this one.
Sony, on the other hand, likes to use its competitor's products such as PGR3 to advertise their own game, namely GT4. How desperate, how low, how sad.
and Sony did that twice. :lol:

If it's game rankings your gonna need to sort through all the XBLA/repeat/DLCs/ports of last gen games to make the data more useful. 7.0 games and up are all perfectly reasonable games going by the ratings system. even if i went AA, the 360 still wins by 60 games. also, xbla games and psn games count, considering you can play them on the system, as does ports. i also set the minimum reviews to 20 to weed out most of the dlc for each console.

1. sorry to break it to you, but 7.0 is considered "good."
2. xbla titles aren't considered playable games now?
3. ports don't count anymore? then you should remove a few hundred games from the ps3 library :lol:
so the 360 has around 160 A+ games than the PS3 does. That's gotta hurt.

Hmm not really, not having to play 160 games is more of a relief. Can't think of anything I want to play on the 360 tbh, sorry but the platform is a joke to me at this point, you can enjoy your Halo I guess.Last gen ports are different from ports in general, it's like multiplats shared with last gen system, so yeah enjoy those as well, along with the other 100 older games. I'm out for the day.

so far this year, the 360 has 5 AAA games on gamespot, same as the ps3.
the ps3, however, keeps getting inferior multiplats and year-old ports this year. if it's a bad year for the 360 in terms of games, it sure is much worse for the ps3.
