Here's a few examples of articles covering PS's boasting over the years. While not to the same level as MS when they are ahead, it still happened.

First off, the "changing their tone" line wasn't separate like that when I wrote it. You separated it and changed it, which changes how my post read, so already your twisting it. You also left some of that post out.

Secondly, I wasn't talking about any specific numbers, I was speaking about sales, and things like the comments given by PS when they win. When you look back to everything PS was saying back then, their tone has changed. They went from bragging a lot, to saying very little, if nothing at all.

That wasn't my original post either. My original said it could mean PS doesn't care because they are winning handily right now, or maybe things didn't go as well as they would have liked. I clearly thought it could be either or. 

They gave lots of updates at the start to show people they were selling well. They don't need to give such regular updates now everyone knows they are so far ahead.

It's bizarre that you are judging Sony on how often they update us on their numbers, instead of how much they actually sell each year.

"They gave lots of updates at the start to show people they were selling well. They don't need to give such regular updates now everyone knows they are so far ahead."

LOL.  It's totally ok for people to follow the rules or do what they say they are going to do when they need help or business or whatever, but when they don't need help or sales, they can do whatever they want. Why not?  LOL. Its bizzare you think this is ok or normal.

Questioning changes to things, is completely normal. Not questioning things leads to being taken advantage of.

Lastly, no, I am not saying PS is taking advantage of anyone, I am just saying don't believe everything your told, which you seem to understand quite well from what I can see, which is a good thing.
