Speaking of which, can we dig up those lovely Leo-J predictions and start mocking him again? Or is that just way to mean?

Here you go.

Thanks.

Are you going to bump it? I was tempted but decided not to.

You were probably in agreement? So why would you bump it? To serve yourself crow lol, wow.

OT: Why isn't Nintendo bragging yet ....

They are most likely waiting to see, what I want to see....Sony's response.

$6.2bil in a month, just on the 360??!! Ridiculously amazing!!

Microsoft probably meant 6.2 billion for the whole year. According to the link below total sales for December were not even that high.

So what did we have GT5 down for then as Gaf seem to think it mega bombed?

The last game charted in TOP10 is NFS and sold over 1.2M across all platform. No way GT5 was going to be in combined top10 (seperate too btw). It didn't bomb, it just had games that sold better next to it.

It didn't make the individual SKU top 10 either. Meaning Dance Central and U-Draw both sold more than GT5 in Dec. How many people would have made that bet?
