Forums - Gaming Discussion - CNET generation predictions

famousringo on 21 May 2008

Another 'analyst' who bought into the 10-year myth and figures Wii buyers will suddenly start lusting for HD graphics.

Oh, and not only that, but every person who ever bought a PS2 is obviously going to buy a PS3. They're all just waiting.

This kind of unsubstantiated bullcrap makes me sick.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

The Wii didn't unsell? I'm dissapointed by you, CNET.

BTW, what was it Avinash called CNET again? Crappy Nintendo Entertainment Treater? Something like that, except it was funny, not stupid. Anyone remember?

hmmm...

gues i need to buy me a ps3 now
since my 360 is expected to die out
and my wii, while unstopable now,
will falter ultimately to an unlikely
rival who brings to the table only
fancy eye candy :/

And how does this make this prediction valid? 



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

So, Billy Pidgeon goes by the screen name CrazzyMan on VG, right?

Not sure. Would he have given the Wii even that much?

Hahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
That is insane, looks like the perfect ending, lol, barely just barely by 1 unit!

Worst graph I've seen in my entire life, I'd like to see how PS3 would be able to sell 30 million units in 1 year "lawl"
