Nope. The OP is a question, not a statement or an argument.

Since you can't refer to any predictions, I'll refer to your "6-8 mil" argument as speculation (per the usual).
|
This entire thread represents a question, replied to with speculative opinions from others.
Much like 99.65% of the comments made on this site, all of what is in this thread is speculation, bar the sales figures that currently exist.....well below previous numbers.
Other examples of speculation can be found here.

Hold the fucking phone.
My thread is not speculation. I asked a question about what people thought about the price drop, and it's effects. I didn't say anything about it, speculation would have fell into the thread had I given a reason for the price drop, when what I did was ask what the reason was, and gave choices.
This is speculation though, when you said that A) Sony Moneyhatted Konami (can't be proven true or false) and, B) when you said that 5 million was the lowes that PS3 fans said it will sell. You make two claims, yet back neither of them up.
That my friend is speculation. My thread is based on fact.
Don't try to change the subject from your speculation to something else.

Wait? Your thread is a question, but then by the end of your post it is fact?
We have been over this before. You apply your literal interpretation of the word speculation only when someone else is involved, never to your own posts. If we really did broadly apply the principle, this site's forums would be nearly non-existant.
Also, I don't see where I said 5 million was the lowest expectation PS3 fans had........

No, the thread is a question, the fact is that the first price drop failed to do much in Europe (if it's almost being outsold by the PS2). that was the fact.
You didn't post any fact though, as you can see by my points A and B in the above post.
And at the bolded statement
Are you fucking blind?
I doubt it. Thinking back to all the prediction threads, 5 million seemed to be the expected minimum for the majority of MGS fans.

It's a fact that the Xbox 360 price cut did nothing? It could well have added 200k sales. I think it is very much your own interpretation that it did nothing.
As for blindness, you said that I claimed the lowest expectation PS3 fans had was 5 million. I actually said 5 million seemed to be the lowest expectation MGS fans had.
Your claim that PS3 fans are the same as MGS fans is pure speculation.

Ding ding!
Another hollow victory for starcraft.
Getting out on technicalities seems like all you are able to do, instead of having a conversation about anything.
Well whatever, apparently, throwing "Seem" or "maybe" or "could" makes any statement less definite. Shame that you can't have a backbone, be a man, and say what you mean, not all of your usual speculative bull.
So, back to the topic at hand, where are said links to the 6-8 million predictions by MGS fans? If not, then I'll go back to my topic of most of your posts being speculation.
