Oh and for people about to mention Guitar Hero or Call Of Duty… I hate FPS’ and Rock Band blows Guitar Hero out of the water

Well… I don’t know baout Rock Band 2… As it isn’t our here in the EU yet… But Guitar Hero World Tour is better than Rock Band. But that is my opinion… reason why (Yeah I have a reason, I’m not going to say that it is better and just expect you to agree, actually I don’t expect you to agree with me even after I tell you why but that is becasue your intitaled to your own opinion too) is becasue, I think that the drumbs are a lot better in Guitar Hero… You can’t hear them as much, so you can hear the music on the TV without a wacking sound of plastic. But like I said, I haven’t played Rock Band 2 becasue it isn’t out here yet…

well they won't be cutting the upcoming releases if they're complaining about losing money. They already invested how many thousands in developing MW2 and whatever that “music” game is… it'd be really, really stupid to just cut those and make no return whatsoever on their investment. That said, the only thing that would concern me is if they cut support for DLC, they screwed us a little on the original MW, and it could be worse this time around.

Its bullshit, Activision wont leave, they just want attention. Why the hell would they?

They say the PS3 is lowest selling game system, but COD sell 10X better on PS3 then it does on Wii.

If they were going to stop making games for a system, it would just be the Wii.

All they want it is a price-cut.

Yeah, have 2 agree with this, cant see why they would drop it, they must still make quite a bit of money on ps3s.

Agreed, Activision just seem to be jerks. They're trying to get Brutal Legend canned too, since they owned the original rights. They said something about them being promised an IP but then sold it off to EA. WTF?

Because they realise how good the game's going to be and don't want to be the ones who let it go.

After doing some digging I found the official reason:

'The whole Activision-Double Fine-EA fiasco just keeps getting uglier and uglier, and now Activision has made good on its promise to block the sale of Brutal Legend unless it gets paid or publishes the game itself.

According to the Associated Press, Activision filed papers with the district of Santa Monica, California yesterday, claiming that Double Fine transferred rights owned by the company to EA after it had already invested $15 million in the project.

Activision claims it still has a valid contract to release the game.

This is despite the fact the game was dropped along with Ghostbusters and Assault on Dark Athena back during the Vivendi merger, which CEO Bobby Kotick said was because none had “the potential to be exploited every year on every platform.”'

So there you go…

GO TO HELL ACTIVISION!

Bdamac – Lost Planet 2 was CONFIRMED for PS3. It comes out the same time.

Anywho, i cant believe anyone believes this. Activision is dumb, they just want attention. They want to create hype because they know all their series except MW2 are being outdated.

GH sucked after world tour, RB is a lot better.

Tony Hawk got killed by Skate

MW2 is all they have left.

The only way they are making money, is because they bought Blizzard, which makes Warcraft.. the stupidest, yet most popular game ever.
