I know, FishyJoe, I know. All he is doing though is making a prediction and watching to see if the numbers bear it out. If it doesn't, it ought to be a lot of fun. If/when he starts making unfounded conclusions from the numbers, then we can start bashing.

Johntonsoup, you are incorrect. Crazzyman's post are all the same. He cherry picks information, twists data, takes information out of context, or just outright lies to convey his point. Look up his post history. When he is proven factually incorrect, he either posts more out of context information or just repeats the same inaccurate facts until other posters just give up trying to correct him.

 I know, I assure you that I usually find his posts to be the least well reasoned of anyone on the site (don't worry, Leo-j and Soriku, I didn't forget about you  :)). I just think he has an interesting thread (which basically boils down to comparing two consoles week by week during two (admittedly cherry-picked) somewhat similar time frames). Does anyone really expect the PS3 to suddenly start selling like PS2 (other than Crazzy)? No. Of course not. But it doesn't hurt us to look at the numbers.

IMO, this thread is valuable because it provides me data that I would otherwise be too lazy or disinterested to look up.
