I could go on a rant calling out those who hyped Gran Turismo 5, but my honor prevents me from doing so. Instead, it's measly 500k in December 2010 will just make me chuckle smugly at how right many others and I, who tried to temper the Gran Turismo 5 hype train, were. If you cannot top 1 million in December, then those legs must be pretty damn short.
Congratulations to Nintendo and Microsoft, your hard work paid off and both of you deserve all the praise and accolades you are getting. The detraction is just from those who wanted you to fail, pay the haterade no attention because trying to reason with haters is like trying to reason with an emotionally distraught child.
R.I.P. Sony Move, you like Sega and Atari are showing us how vain appealing to the "core" is. Instead of focusing on the family, you are ignorantly pandered to a niche minority and it will be the death of you. I hope your demise comes quick because no one or platform deserves a slow, pathetic death with spectators whispering "I told ya so."

So, won't you pay yourself attention? O-)

I never hungered or asked for attention like that doofus in high school who dyed his hair purple and had a pig ring in his nose. What I wanted to be perceived as was innocuous, polite and when my turn came to speak I wanted to floor them with my words. However, what I want to be and what I am perceived to be are two very different things. I will make peace with it, move on, and contribute.

Credit due to you for your answer, a lot more fairly played than how your previous post appeared.
But while undoubtedly very proud of their favourite game, GT5 fans on average count amongst them a lot less trolls than many others, attacking GT5 to piss them all off due to the few trolls is just like attacking Halo and all its fans just to hit a troll minority amongst them.

Hey, I have Gears of War 3 in my sights (really bad term to use right now in the US due to Congresswoman Gabby Giffords being shot in the head). I own both Gears of War and Gears of War 2. Needless to say, I was displeased with Gears of War 2 and once the hype train for Gears 3 starts, I will be that dumb hobo in the middle of the tracks trying to stop it. Well, more futile than "dumb."
Series like Gran Turismo and Halo are extremely hard to troll because the past games have set the bar in great racing or FPS fundamentals. Now, Call of Duty 2k"fill in the year" is almost too easy to troll as anyone who is not a fan of it will not defend it with all their wit.
My previous answer was a knee-jerk reaction. Thank you for not quoting it :)
