Well I believe that anyone who posts on this forum should be willing to accept this website as a reference. If you're not then get off VGChartz.... As far as your link goes, companies lie about stuff like that all the time. My theory is that they had two plans going in. 1) with DRM 2) without DRM. Jack Tretton made those statements earlier to make Sony seem innocent if they decided to go with the non-DRM route. Basically they were playing both sides. My opinion on this isn't even Sony-hate as you would put it, it's just my skeptical nature. Companies do this kind of thing all the time. It's only good business practice to do it. |
So you should ask for all people with above 2 years on the site and more than 1k posts to leave here... and the mods as well... anyone not interested in using VGC numbers in their favour knows that they get adjusted pretty much all week now because of imprecision... in May X1 was overtacked almost 50% and PSVita undertracked like 500%... so yes, for LTD the site is reliable (but even so they had to add 1M to X360 numbers to match latest shipping figures)... and in Germany VGC is 1M overtracking X360 and 300k PS3.
But if you want to take VGC numbers as gospel your choice, but just go look for the corrections made before you put to much faith on it.
So your answer to my post showing that they alread had said they wouldn't put DRM (instead of your weak point that they removed it because of MS flack, that you base on a rumour of a interview that don't have a link) is that they were doing it anyway... so no amount of proof would suffice...
Ok I'm out of this discussion with you, you don't even listen reason you already decided what you want to believe and will stay on it.
