Who Cares If Activision Leaves?

I really don't care now. Activision really has no exclusive games. If you miss Guitar Hero, get Rock Band. COD withdrawl? Go try Killzone or Resistance. Plus, they tried to stall Brutal Legend. That was the last straw!!

i do

lol at everyone pretending not to care. Keir21

It will hurt Sony and probably separate a fourth of it's consumers.... It may not mean anything to us gamers, but just imagine a whole company "ActiVision" picking up and walking away to what we know as Sony's rival; not a good thing at all. Like it or not Call of Duty/Modern Warfare is pretty damn popular (I have like 10 people I know who are dieing to play MW2 who own a PS3. They wouldn't be happy campers either...Nocturnal_Speed

yeah but even if acti pull support for ps3 MW2 will still come out on ps3 as that game due this year and acti talking bout pulling support next.And we know MW2 will use lame host system that lags out all the time so all the cod fans wont have to worry about losing server support.personnally i enjoy COD4 but didnt think it was all that and then some.DOD IMO is much better and much much older

Because games are games regardless, the more the better. So anyone should be slightly dissapointed if we lose Activision. Keir21

i stopped caring when they stopped publishing total war games,wait they for the PC so doesnt matter anyway :)

*raises hand* i do

If Activision left it will be not big lose . We have Resistance,Killzone 2 and the incomming MAG.The bad thing for PS3 gamers are Namco Bandai Tekken 6 for Xbox360 and SquareEnix Final Fantasy XIII again for Xbox360.

I don't really care about Activision to be honest I don't really like Call of Duty as I'm not into FPS I think Sony has enough great studios that keeps the Sony strong. I don't believe what Activision are saying anyway plus Activision can't talk when they are actually keeping the high price of a 2 year old game which is still the same price as a brand new release Call of Duty 4 the price should be going down by now by it's not.

It'd be a crippling blow to SONY by any standards. Activision alone paid SONY $500 MILLION dollars in royalties last year, and Activision (among other third party developers) has emphasized the challenges of developing games for the beloved PS3. I'm sure Activision can survive without the PS3 and save $500 million a year... SONY on the other hand would be devastated. It's an empty threat though because Activision has taken note of the 22+ million PS3 gamers they'd be losing in the process not to mention that if Activision were to pull out completely they'd be losing even more revenue from PSP, and PS2 titles respectively. So all-in-all this is just Activision saying "Hey, stop charging us so damn much for royalties!"

[QUOTE="ShowStopper102"][QUOTE="raven_squad"] Would that not have been a correct statement...?raven_squad

I couldn't think of a witty retort, but you executed it gracefully; but besides that I'd have been a hypocrite to call him out considering how much of an avid fanboy I am of Final Fantasy... Thanks. LOL!

Thinking about what we'd miss out on...

personally I'm starting to draw a blank. Guitar Hero is milked crap now anyway, plus Rock Band is far better... Call of Duty has a whole lot of noobs, personally though I never liked it, it's also milked and now PS3 owners can play more shooters to support Sony, and... what else will we miss out on in the coming months? Help me out, I don't know what's so devastating.

I think that what most people are afraid of is IF Activision drops SONY then it'll begin a domino effect; other third party developers dropping SONY. It's a scary thought for PS3 owners, but I don't think there's cause for mass hysteria yet.

I personally care because i want to play future Call of Duty games.

you all should care, because Playstation brand should be for everyone not just fanboys and hardcore gamers. it's important that Playstation is successful and not some weird bourgiouse niche gaming circle.

Yes my thought was with out COD PS3 exclusive shooters would skyrocket. I don't buy shooters or music games so it really makes no difference to me. I say the hell with them especially if they have to balls to try to boss Sony around.jeremiah06

They would already be selling if Sony advertised them.

One less dev means less games. Yeah, I care a little bit.

I agree. They have many POPULAR franchises... that has nothing to do with quality, though. They're all the same milked games every single year.GodofBigMacs

Whether or not they're "milking" a franchise is irrelevant. The sales speak for themselves, and so long as sales are high they're going to continue to "milk" it until it's dry.

I wouldn't care cause i have a 360

So yeah ummm lets talk about MAG, that games looks like it will be great to play.

Someone said that if we miss MW2 (Wont happen anyway) He said he wont have a game to play with his friends.And that would be bad for Sony, losing that money.

Maybe those owners can go get the undeniably FAILPROOF (i said it) Uncharted 2. That is kickass. I was in the Beta, and for a guy who doesn't like online, it is friggin sweet! That's not even with the mmmooouuuttthhwwaaatteeerrriinnn singleplayer. There, Sony makes MORE money, ensures an even better Uncharted 3. See?

i never played any of their games but still i do care, what if they made a new good game?

activision is a potantial enemy so keep ur friends close and ur enemies closer......

I wouldn't care cause i have a 360

I don't think that COD becoming a 360 exclusive is a good thing, that'd hurt Sony A LOT. I would care if they did, but I think it's just a bluff on Activision's part! Sony is getting a lot more sales! And they're definately coming out with killer games, so I don't see where this is coming from!
