Ok, I'l stick with percentages and never complain again. Here is my final example as to why I dislike percentages.

Here is the sales figures for 3 beer companies during 2008:

- Carlsberg sold 1,000,000 units

- Harp sold 50 units

- Guiness sold 1 unit

Here is the sales figures for 2009 sales:

- Carlsberg sold 1,200,000 units Grown by 200,000 units / Grown by 20%

- Harp sold 50 units Grown by 0 units / 0%

- Guiness sold 2 units Grown by 1 unit / 100%

 

So who has grown the most? And can you imagine the press releases from each of these companies. Even though only one company did good, all three of them could make it out as if they did well. (and note, there is probably some maths mistakes in there).

 

Dude, we know you are a huge sony apologist but spare us your kindergarden logic.

No one here is using percentages to hide anything, kowenicki's strong argument is that despite the huge falloff on sales, the distance between the consoles remains the same both in strong and weak market conditions.

You've been spamming propaganda all over, chill for a bit OK? All propaganda accounts eventually get banned outta the forum or laughed off until they either quit vgchartz or make a new account and start behaving differently.

Ugh, get off my case. Ive always said this about percentages, yes even when the PS3 was outselling the 360. And Ive not been banned once, so Im obviously not the Joseph Goebbels you think I am. I swear to God, everyone on this site is deemed a fanboy unless they sit on the fence. And what propoganda have I spammed? I hope you arent referring to that Forza vs GT thread where I put up well explained valid points, but got called a fanboy by a group of people who said F3 was potentially going to outsell GT5, and by a guy that is now banned.
