Way to put all your eggs in one tactical helmet shaped basket. Careful now Activision, be very careful that it doesn't fall.

The moment CoD becomes obsolete, and it will sooner or later, Activision will be right in the proverbial. Apart from Warcraft which is seeing a decline, what else of real value have they got?

Apart from Wonderbook, I thought it was pretty good. At the end of the day it's down to personal opinion. Some won't have liked it and others would have automatically hated it (you know who you are).

Really, why not Einstein?

Studios can work on more than one project at a time, look at Sony Santa Monica, latest reports suggests they are working on three projects, one of which we know is current gen.

How do you explain the multi console release of third party titles, huh? I'd strap myself in and wait for your epic response but it appears you are out of bubbles.

Who'd have thought it, so-called industry experts wrong?

You'll be telling us next that Pacman was a rip-off of Luigi's Mansion and Space Invaders a rip-off of Star Fox, huh?

"Halo, Gears of War, Forza, Fable and Dance Central, all returning in a bigger, better way. I think gamers are going to be pretty well-catered for."

To some consumers the above statement may well be exactly the problem, by which I mean they are all the usual suspects. Microsoft seem to think that sequel after sequel is enough for gamer exclusive bragging rights.

How are you going to compete without keeping an eye on the competition? Hardly a revelation.

How dare you! Galavanting round here throwing facts about left, right and centre. What will the neighbours think?

They're already on the second of four characters, it would be ludicrous to completely rule out sequels. If you are going to halt a franchise with the potential of at least four entries it would have been best to stop after the first.

Too much hype sets a title up for a huge fall, isn't it enough that it has Halo in the title? I'm no fan of the series but I can recognise the power of a franchise name.

Interestingly I'm right below you, also technically offering a defensive stance on that article.

Reinforces my point exactly.

What the hell did I just witness?

I think it's so funny that you disagree with those whose opinion it is to disagree with you, then question the validity of those disagrees as if those opinions don't count.

I stated why I disagreed as did others, at least you could respect that instead of a blanket everybody is a crybaby statement. You prefer Netflix on Live, that's fine, doesn't mean everybody else has to.

How about concentrate on AC3 first.

Let's look at it this way, if Sony had announced similar features the web would be alight with plagiarism articles. Even though owners of PSP & PS3 have been aching for cross platform goodness and Sony have teased and to a small degree scratched the surface in the past, it would still be a no win situation.

These doom articles are getting a little out of hand.

@Blastoise

It's a long standing tradition for CoD to be similar with every iteration with the exception of the odd game mode or perk, so you have to forgive me for being a little cautious.

Saying and doing are two completely different things. I'll wait for real user reactions before looking at this one.

Widescreen TVs have had the ability to change the screen format for years, auto or manual. Not exactly a major selling point for an app if you TV can already do it.
