This is corporate bunk. Activision is just trying to get Sony's attention. They make lots of money from Sony related hardware and this business is all about money so they aren't giving that up. When the console price drops soon, this will all go away.

I agree, motion control is only good for certain games and trying to map a d-pad onto the screen like some games do now is a disaster. The iPhone does need an attachable pad so it can capture all genres.

I disagree that the motion control is good for racing. Its great to show off the tech and for casual types but is impractical for serious gamers.

So Nintendo jacks the price up on the DSi over 30% and nobody complains like this. You can't tell me that they aren't gouging everybody with a bunch of features that cost almost nothing to work in to a mature device. Double standard!

Price cut, sales up? Is there any real news?

Microsoft now reports that "the sun will set today and rise tomorrow morning".

Who really cares what these analysts think. They are never held accountable for "wrong" predictions (they make many) and brag about all their "right" ones based on obvious information (you too could be an analyst based on the information in this article). In this case they have created another fanboy pissing match about two equally powerful consoles with a handful of exclusives and a ton of cross platform games.

I for one would prefer to sit and enjoy my games on my console(s) of choice. You should too.
