It's funny how every time NPD comes out, USA becomes the world and the rest of it is forgotten. 

The PS3 has a great advantage and I don't see it slowing down for quite some time.  It will be ahead for the rest of the holidays and it has MAG, GOWIII and GT5.   I'm sure MS is worried, but they won't show it to the public.

From here on out it's a gun fight, and Sony is going to let Microsoft know that they need to stop bringing a knife.

Funny how the PS3 Trolls come out of the wood work and into the Microsoft Discussion forum.

Almost as funny as how everyone just has to talk about US sales in an NPD US sales thread.

Troll?  Feel free to check my post history, you will find that I'm no troll and I rarely post in the Microsoft Discussion forum.  Your attempt at insult has failed.  

And apparently, everyone missed the point on that first sentence.  Maybe I could have made it clearer.  It wasn't directed towards the thread, I wasn't trying to bring the rest of the world into the disscussion. 

"I wasn't speaking of the thread in general.  When NPD data is released, it seems as if sometimes it is treated as if it is world data when it is not."

^Just quoted myself.

 

What's really funny is that I didn't notice I was in the microsoft forum until after I had posted, thought I was in the sales forum.  I was going to edit it because I figured I would get some heat from the pro 360 crowd, as I am pro PS3.  But I said to myself, what the heck, let's roll with it.  And I gotta tell you, I haven't been quoted in a single thread by so many folks, well, never.  And I'm pretty positive that I've broken my daily post count record as well.  It's fun, lets keep it up.  

LOL.  Here I just qouted you, too.  But I do agree with your statement.  I know it's PR, but come on.  I just hate how MS just like using the US to gauge their PR claims.  And to assume GT5 isn't going to be a big game just because you have Halo coming out, ok. 

The real issue I have, though, is how he speaks of the marketshare for PS3 "stabilizing" to normal levels.  How is that when it has been going up on an almost weekly basis?  I know he's speaking of the USA, but he doesn't make that clear at all and anyone uninformed would assume he just means in general.  I'm just amazed by the amount of people in forums who say the Slim got a 2-3 week boost at most, and the 360 is outselling it overall.  Ignorance is bliss I suppose.
