This is what I call a hit and run post. You made everything up, there's not one fact, one good guess in that post. Your points : Move is flop answer: 8 million sold in six months your point:MS offered 3year warrenty after 6 months. answer: MS denied RROD for almost a year. there tons of these systems on ebay, even those repaired, because they kept getting rrod, had to be changed to new ones. It was the outcry of so many people's console being rrod on a daily basis that forced MS to take action, by then millions had been affected. I would say at least 40 % if not more of the new Slim going to existing owners, Your point: GT5 not selling as well as previous GT games. This one is funny because it's ahead of GT4 right now, lol. MS sells more software than Sony: MS does not release their software totals, the only numbers we know for sure is ms beat them in the US, and is about 100m ahead by VGchartz numbers which is basicly amount to that year head start the 36 had. I'll be waiting for your answer. |
Ive not hit and run anything.
FACT I had a 3 year warranty when I bought my 360 in May 2006. FACT.
Yes there were lots on Ebay. But over 400,000. No just no.
Since when did we ever on VGC say shipped was sold. I have been on VGC a LONG time. And we have never refferred to shipped numbers as sold. NEVER. Move has shipped 8 million units. ( Which as Sony said themselves in the follow up statement to the 4 million statement that they count Move units. Which is just the wands and thumbstick. So the userbase could be anything?
And I would love to make a bet with you. GT5 will be the lowest selling in the franchise by over 2 million.
I simply leveled the crazy arse posts in this thread about 360. Because certain people tried to pass the 360 off as rubbish sales. But yet forget that PS3 was the first BluRay player on the market and the cheapest for over year. How many people bought one purely as a BluRay player? How many rebought their PS3 when Slim launched ( I know 2 out of 3 people that did ).
My point is this. Which I will reiterate because you have missed it entirely but chose to see the red mist.
Selnors point: It's to hard to tell what actual console sales for either PS3 or 360 are genuine game buyers or movie buffs. To hard to tell how many just rebought dodgy systems or actually used there warranties. Who knows. But the thread was about Move units SHIPPED. And should stay that way. Some of these new people on here trying to pass off shipped numbers as sold is crazy. Do they think the long term VGC users are that thick????????
