there is one company that trumpets every insignificant, minor detail of what they do and another that frequently remains silent even when major things happen.

i am not surprised by the lack of PR...


Of corse Sony bragged for every 5mi milestone either in shipments or sold throught.

May they think it´s anoying posting a minor BF win just one week after the 30mi annoucement. 

There is still a few hours left, may be they will give a consolidate estimate for Cyber Monday if at least with the 1mi mark.

Yes the worse is when Sony announced that they have almost sold in to retailers more than 10 millions consoles. 

ohh wait it was Microsoft

Their "bragging" helps keep us informed about sell through,

we care because we're on a console sales site that tries to predict sell through. Make sense? It would be helpful if MS gave us milestone indicators as well.

Besides a few analysts saying the PS4 likely WON Black Friday... I am really surpried we have gotten no PR annoucements out of anyone..

I would think SONY woud be first to push out that they WON the Black Friday.. since they did not last year (USA)..

Unless it is to close to call right now.. and they are waiting until after "Cyber Monday".

 

 

Sony has never been known to PR Black Friday Sales.  And certainlly nothing to the extent of what we got from Microsoft's Aaron Greenberg in the past.  

Expecting Sony or Nintendo to make a statment is completely unfounded.   Only Microsoft really endulged in this practice.   Your expectaions aren't based on reality.

You are so mean... it's not like DarkFeanor ever complained on NPD threads about the PR bashing we give MS.

If MS were to given a PR every 5M milestone of HW we would only be getting their 3rd at this moment.. he wouldn't be happy.
