Euphoria - Id assume it has to do with gamespot person not wanting to be there (or being lazy). I ean read what he posted compared to the other 2 live bloggers. the gamespot one was bare minimum paraphrasing with the other two actually going in detail and quoting kaz

 

The Gamespot is the only one I read and the same one I based all my ideas on.

Just the fact that I found all that shit wrong with it when compared to what many here think as well as VGChartz numbers being way out of whack when going by what these same people think, it is enough to make your head spin.

I'll read the others. Seems like it just may end up being almost exactly what I was thinking, old numbers or end up being what you, DMJ and some others think, that he said "play" and not "sold".

As of right now though, it is very hard to bring up a good enough argument to support it being overtracked because that means throwing VGChartz under the bus. I just can't see people who frequently visit this site admitting that VGChartz not only overtracked LBP by 500k, but also to overtracking PS3 and PSP by more like 2M+ seeing as how we already have them at 1.4M beyond what they shipped. (According to some in this thread)

Anything other than "played" or old numbers just seems insane to me.

The old numbers that were used were used before LBP was out.

That whole arguement is silly... they used old numbers for that... (which are the last investor numbers so it makes sense... since they don't want to give away how close or far they are from hitting their goals.)

So they must be using, old... but not as old LBP numbers for no reason?

While what DJmeister was saying was simply based on his own fanboyish hopes and one site out of dozens having a differing viewpoint.

Anyone who's argueing based off that... or based on the context of the conversation (since PR talk often switches and throws up different stuff....) had nothing to stand on.

The only one who's had a convincing arguement to not take what was reported Kaz said at his word is Godot.

 

 

Argument may seem silly, i'll admit that I myself found it to be that way at times, but I also find it silly for anyone to think these are recent shipped numbers. I just can't get them to add up right.

This all became worse once you said "userbase" meant "shipped to retail" and as I said, earlier this week "userbase" on this site meant "sold to customer".

 

*sigh*

 

Here is to hoping I can get better at this someday.

 

Is NPD soon?
