Sony Pictures planning a movie about gaming console wars?

[BLUEGRASS]

Interesting....

The next generation of console wars between Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft is set to begin as all three manufacturers are due to release a new console in the near future. Nintendo plans to release the Wii U in 2012, while the PlayStation 4 and Xbox 720 are expected in 2013. Adding to the “war of consoles”, Sony Pictures has registered several domain names this week like ConsoleWarmovie.com and TheConsoleWarmovie.com

Could ‘Console War’ actually be a movie or just a creative marketing video promoting the Playstation 4?

What hints that this is more than just a video is the names were all registered by Sony Pictures Entertainment, the television and film production/distribution unit of Sony. The names weren’t registered by Sony Computer Entertainment, the video game company.

Either way, there doesn’t appear to be any news coming out of Sony on the subject, but Sony Pictures Entertainment has picked up well over a dozen names.

Each domain was registered on August 23, 2012, through the brand protection company MarkMonitor.

The full list includes:

console-war.net
console-warmovie.com
console-wars.net
console-warsmovie.com
consolewar-movie.com
consolewar-movie.net
consolewar.net
consolewarmovie.com
consolewars-movie.com
consolewars-movie.net
consolewarsmovie.com
theconsolewar-movie.com
theconsolewar-movie.net
theconsolewar.net
theconsolewarmovie.com
theconsolewars-movie.com
theconsolewars-movie.net
theconsolewarsmovie.com

At the time of this story, none of the domains resolve to a web page.

Journalist Kris Tapley soon after tweeted that he's heard talk of the project being compared to a certain David Fincher film - "it was specifically described to me as 'a Social Network of video gaming'.
