Is that Beatles Guitar Hero thing third party software? 'cause 360 outsells PS3 for that. Just sayin'.
I don't think there is really going to be any real protest about this. The only gamers hardcore enough to even know about any of this are also the gamers that are hardcore enough to buy the game regardless. I can't think of anyone who would boycott the game for the reasons being given and if they do, I think they're the only ones losing out in this and that it's a pretty stupid, pointless thing to do.
I wonder if there are any non-PS3 owners that are disappointed about this news.
