Just check this topic by madkiller and tell me you don't regret it...

Have fun getting banned there buddy. That thread has nothing to do with this thread, is really old, and you just violated several forum rules. The entire purpose of your reply is a personal attack that is completely off-topic and has nothing to do with what we are talking about. Plus, sorry to tell you but what I said is completely true since PS3 is going to remain in last place this generation, period...

Acting in self defense already?

You think me bringing a clear point about why your posts are not very well thought out will get me banned, but you bringing Modern Warfare 2 to win Game of the Year award into this unrelated discussion will not?

And really, what you said is completely true?

"The PS3 did not win in any region since the numbers of all 3 consoles in Americas is virtually identical, so close in fact that the margin of error negates any possibility of calling it a win. Then it got destroyed 2 to 1 in Others and basically sold nothing at all in Japan (less than 2k)."

Aren't you ashamed to say that you were completely right?

Anyway, I don't want to get involved into this discussion and my point was to tell people stop this pointless discussion as I believe it is a complete waste of time.

Ashamed? How? The PS3 is still in dead last place and will stay there. Plus, you might want to re-read that bolded part as it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever out of context like that...

Considering how well Uncharted 1 did and how popular it was, I agree. If this was on the xbox, it would have sold 1 million in a few days. Again, developers suffer by releasing exclusives on the ps3. I believe that with time, developers will switch to the xbox and there will be very few exclusives for the ps3.

I am myself a ps3 owner and am disappointed at fellow ps3 owners that ran out to buy fifa and reserve modern warfare 2 but did not care about uncharted 2. Why should developers spend money and time developing exclusives for the ps3? Look at Halo ODST. Other developers must have seen the amount Bungie are making by developing a popular seroes of games on the xbox and will follow suit.

First of all I am working on my second degree that I will be receiving in a few months, Then I will be working on my 3rd degree, and I might end up getting a PhD if I feel like. Plus, how the hell do you know that I don't have a girlfriend? My profile on this site? Sorry, but I never update that info, only my games info...

since madkiller was in charge of the game of the year information. x.o

He is right when he talks about saleswise because Uncharted 2 won't be able to match MW2 in sales, but sales generally don't have anything to do with GOTY status. Otherwise, Wii Fit would have been crowned the king of 2008.

Yes, instead of LBP with its "disappointing" sales.
