Am I the only American who found that picture humorous in this context? >_>


Also, I can't believe people still take FattyDingDong threads seriously. All he ever does is take the status quo (in this case the ps3 battling it out for first place on a weekly basis) or a commonly held opinion and make a thread stating the opposite (ie, the ps3 coming in last over the holidays) to get hits. There's a reason he never actually comes back to a thread to back up his position.

Yes, it's very possible that the ps3 could wind up in last place this holiday season, but that's not why he made the thread. He likes controversy. Nothing more. Why give him the time of day.


I did :D and I'm American

I give FattyDingDong some cred for making this thread but do agree with Makingmusic476, he does know how to rile up VGC

OT: If I were to take this thread seriously(which I somewhat am doing) I personally think the Wii will be first this holiday season, we've said this for about 2 years about how the wii was losing momentum and that it would be overtaken and then BAM!!! look who's sitting on top.(talking WW though)

it will be a close battle for 2nd place and I believe the PS3 might just make to 2nd place as I think a price cut will be favoring the PS3, the lowest selling model is $300 where it's competition while its competitors have a $150-$199 console. if the PS3 is holding good position during these weekly charts, imagine what could happen with a price cut during the holiday season.(might have another 2009 on our hands...but bigger)

for exclusives:  Gears 3 and UC3 will give their  consoles a good boost, though Gears 3 is much bigger(Speacailly in the NA) so it's mostly a given that the 360 will get a bigger boost to the 360 then UC3 will do for the PS3, now tag that with Halo CE and this could put the 360 on top of the PS3.(NA wise) though FF XIII-2 is releasing  in Japan and I believe UC3 will be stronger in EMEAA than NA.

as for Call of Duty and other multiplats won't make much of an impact Hardware wise; both console will recieve boosts but no title will be the "nail in the coffin" for the othe console

the biggest thing MS/360 has is Kinect, I know most gamers were upset about MS E3 conference being heavy on Kinect(myself included) but kids will eat that Disneyland, Fun Labs , Star Wars Kinect up. though I don't think "Kinect Effect" will be of the magnitude it was last holiday season.

I know America doesn't equal the world, but it plays a pretty damn big part lol

how is gear bigger??????

both Gears 1&2 have sold 6 mil each compared to Uncharted: Drakes Fortune(3.7 mil) and Uncharted 2: Among Thieves(4.7 mil), Gears 3 has over 1 million pre-orders and is the most pre-ordered 360 exclusive yet. so sales wise...It's bigger.


thats american pre order so???? and the reason gear 3 got so many pre order cuz thats how everyone got the beta....and in term hype uncharted is bigger. who care about sell??? mario sold more than gear so mario bigger??? ps uc3 beta got morea players


*sigh* as in term of hype both games have a huge amount of hype as they're the biggest exclusives coming out this year. a main reason to why UC3 had more players was because it was an open beta, I believe the only way you could play the Gears 3 beta was pre-ordering Gears, buying Bulletstorm, and invite a friend. yet Gears 3 got more pre-orders during the beta than Uncharted 3.Gears 3 has 1 million pre-orders in NA alone, think about the rest of the world, gears 3 probably atleast is looking at a 3 million fw.

and of course Mario is bigger than Gears...I don't know why you brought that up...

and I hope you're not thinking that I mean Sales=better game, but it does mean that the game is more popular/bigger

uncharted hype is bigger *faceplam* and no ppl actually giving free betas out i saw alot ppl got it not just invite friends, and no gear is mainly sale in america so no uncharted is a globe game, and i wont be surpise if gear sold more since its is the only exclusvie that is coming out while ps3 still got last guardian, starhawk,and resistance3
