With the price wars of the upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops release kicking in to top gear today as HMV announced it was to offer the title for just £7.99, the battle of the brands is following suit with Microsoft claiming dominance of the much anticipated game.

Xbox’s Director of Entertainment and Marketing, Stephen McGill, whilst talking with MCV, boldly proclaimed that the Xbox 360 is the best console to play Call of Duty: Black Ops and “everyone knows” it.

"Obviously everyone knows the best place to play Black Ops is on Xbox 360. But there are so many great games still to come out. For Q4 there hasn't been a better line-up for years." Probed McGill.

The unprompted attack on rivals Sony comes ahead of a big week for Xbox which, as well as targeting the largest game release of the year in Co Black Ops, will see the UK arrival of its well hyped motion gaming peripheral, Kinect. "With Kinect and Call of Duty it's an incredible week for retail; they are going to be so busy," said the Xbox head.

Many retailers are expected to open doors at midnight twice next week with large crowds of eager gamers and Christmas shoppers keen to get their hands on the latest addition to the Call of Duty franchise and one of the year’s must have festive gifts.

Supermarket chain Asda is one such retail giant that will be inviting gamers to queue for middle of the night store openings with more than 200 branches expected to invite gamers in for Black Ops and Kinect.

you know what makes both consolse shit?

FANBOYs thats what, includeing this McGill c*nt whoever the hell he thinks he is.
I own an xbox and I think its just as shit as ps3.
no console is better, they just have their up & downs.

not flameing or anything but anyone that works for a rival company will always shit talk about how better they are, even without a reson like this prime example/facepalm

Just buy both consoles so you won't have to worry which console is the best.

i think they bullsh*t. i think it has been ported again and had hardly any testing done on it.

well just a warning to treyarch. dont fuk with sony, they r gonna shit back in ur face, like they did to infinityward, all activison want is money, so xbox giv it to them, and in return get map packs 1 month early, and then u got sony, who dont care about exclusives, but give u the freedom to do what the fuk u want, and u wont get banned, to ban sum1 both treyarch and the console have to work together, so if treyarch r fanboying xbox, then expect sony to do a number 2 right in their mouth, as sony is not gonna give 2 fuks about boosters and is gonna shit right back at treyarch

i have both 360 is the better sytem 9 out 10 people who 360 r ps3 for onlien right thats the fun that said ps3 sucks online

I only use my PS3 for the movies and Final Fantasy 13 & that's about it, I still think Xbox is overall better.... but then that's my opinion.

ok.... you do that then lol

boost, hack ect your ps3 game to your hearts content, while those with xbox's will have boosters, hackers banned.

now i'll stop for a few seconds so you realise how retarded that comment you made was.........

no? basicly you want to destroy black ops for ps3 only lmao

The guy who said microsoft pay to remove features from the ps3 is utter BULLSHIT. xbox only has cross-chat to help out the little nerds who want to boost, thats all it has... oh and that nice £40 or more fee a year to play online, did i mention that the xbox is gunna get hacked so much quicker to? all the hacking nerds seem to like it more because the xbox is 100 times easier to hack. LMAO microsoft = a group of people who make sure they get the best content for the xbox (i.e map packs first, even at the risk of being glitchy) Sony= a group of very intelligent people who would rather not waste money on getting the best content first, but would rather make sure the system security is very secure, ps3 jailbroken 2 weeks later 3.42 out. jailbreak dead. Xbox jttaged= 400 years later its still ****ing jtagged LMFAO XBOX'S ARE SHITE

lulwat? £7.99.
