So you didn't say "2-3 fans are hyping up Forza? lol... Get a grip. Go visit the Forza thread, or go visit the Forza forums."

or

"Or maybe it has something to do with the insane hype from Turn 10 and fans why these threads get made."

As for the sales you said that "A LOT of people predicted Forza 3 would sell 6-7 Million" (proof please) against peoples predictions not saying "Maybe it can reach those sales" when it happened but as your proof of too much hype here. If someone predicts it then that's their prerogative as Bobby Brown once said.

Whether direct or indirect what those devs said was an attack on a rival machine and therefore is trash talk. Or why would they need to say that if all they are doing is promoting a game which has nothing to do with a rival console? They were being honest on a technicality. If bungie had said Halo1 was only possible on the 360 it would be true on the same technicality, doesn't mean it can't be made on a PS3.

I was talking about everything you said in he quotes and said it could come across as trolling which I am starting to believe to be true. If you really think the hype is insane for Forza and its fans, even those who predict 6-7mil (which doesn't make it a bad or biased fanboy prediction but a bold one) Then what about KZ2? That according to the rules that the OP has laid down was a flop. You are being selective.

I mentioned GT, but will admit I shouldn't have because I didn't want the bother of going through the whole KZ2 crap. Should have stuck to KZ2. Or resistance 2. or Uncaharted 2.

I see what you mean now on the first bit... Little misunderstanding there. But anyway, i never said i don't like it... I can't complain at people hyping up games when i constantly hype up FF13 and even FF7 Remake... But what i say still is true, the threads and expectations are made through the sheer hype the game is getting.

A prediction thread i linked to earlier in the thread - http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=81928 But as i said, the threads "2 million will be a flop" thing seems to be based on predictions seen.

They say it because it's true. Developers talk technical aspects when they say stuff like that. If a game is built from the ground up on a specific console using that consoles specific and unique specs, it isnt technically possible on the other console. It's not an attack, it's logic. They aren't saying "Uncharted 2 has left Gears in the dust now" or "Killzone will set the new standard for console FPS" or anything like that. They are saying that the game being as it is, is only possible on the PS3, which is from a technical point... True.

And no, im not being selective. I said myself 2 Million isn't a flop which is disagreeing with the OP. I haven't agreed with it at all, i can just see why he made the thread and the reasons behind it.
