Sorry if I have no problem with my pressure and can take salt.

Nope, people assume that the movie is highest grossing in all time if it says it broke records or similar things. As far as I know on Movies they talk about the biggest opening week on the Fiscal Year so there is context. And for consoles when someone says "highest selling" they mean cumulative not on that weekend (and guess what, MS is doing that for the 3 months not for that day or weekend) so you are twisting the context to fit what you want, and even accuse others of being emotional.

I'm glad you are happy that they are hammering Sony, the very humble MS that need people defending them from bully Sony.

No, movie commercials constantly talk about what is currently the highest grossing. MS is using a monthly tally, movies use weekly or weekend. Maybe sometimes even daily. No one accuses them of false advertising or confuses it with all time highest grossing totals, LOL.

Again, common sense and context. It helps.

Errrrrrrrr so if I look at their ads I would see 52 different movies in the year being advertised as the highest grossing? Because it's weekly tally (most I know they would do is say that it was the highest opening that week or in the year, nothing as open as this one).

Yes common sense helps, please help me remember what is usually used as "highest selling" for consoles? Because when we talk about month or NPD you can see MS saying they were te 1st place on NPD or similar.
