My point wasn't predicated on Sony staying ahead in revenue, period.  It was predicated on a good showing in Ubi revenues, which is what happened.

My only misunderstanding was of your point, which originally you said was about the difference between Euros and Dollars -- but that was incorrect: you were trying to say something about the change in exchange rates over time. 

I've entered threads and mentioned that Sony would have trouble right now dropping PS3  price in the US in part because the yen is like 20% stronger right now than its historical average of the last decade or so.  See how I actually said what I meant?  I wouldn't come into the thread, if I wanted to make that point, and say, "Yen and Dollars are different."  Like an idiot.  Then, I wouldn't say someone was stupid for not following what I'm ineptly trying to say, nor would I later lie and say I was laying a trap for the other person.  To spell it out for you, that's what you did.

Again, you don't like me to say positive things about Sony, so you objected.  Very poorly.

Again, good showing!

 

Yes it was. You quoted Grooski on that.

You are still sore about the way I showed your ignorance of the subject at hand, aren't you? That's why you are still replying. Why does it hurt you so much that you were unaware about currency values?

Oh, I see you are still propping yourself up... feeling insecure maybe?

 

 

 

Grooski in fact mentioned higher revenues (in 08) but the point stands even if in 09 revenues are adjusted due to exchange rate fluctuations.  Ever since the first posts I've been saying that the news is good for PS3 as long as PS3 makes a strong showing.  That what "not predicated on" means: the point stands even if PS3 were to be somewhat lower than 360 in 09 revenue. 

I do notice from Grooski's last post that he is saying different things than I am.  If you want to argue with him, go for it.  Oh wait, you aren't butt-hurt by his avatar, so you'll argue with me.  Keep it up then, dig yourself deeper.

So you have no response on the other stuff about how I'd have gotten the statements of currency fluctuation correct, and have in other threads?  Incidentally that discussion shows that I know better than you the implications of currency fluctuation: I can tell the difference between one kind of currency comparison and another:

"I've entered threads and mentioned that Sony would have trouble right now dropping PS3  price in the US in part because the yen is like 20% stronger right now than its historical average of the last decade or so.  See how I actually said what I meant?  I wouldn't come into the thread, if I wanted to make that point, and say, "Yen and Dollars are different."  Like an idiot.  Then, I wouldn't say someone was stupid for not following what I'm ineptly trying to say, nor would I later lie and say I was laying a trap for the other person.  To spell it out for you, that's what you did."

And hey, when you say propping oneself up, is that like saying "other people have patted my ass after arguments before"?  Lol.  Check my wall.

Hey, why are you still posting?  Feeling insecure maybe?  I'd love to keep this shit bumped.
