But none from you.

kowenicki is experiencing a real beat down i this thread.. chillax people!

A strong reaction isn't entirely unjustified considering how he made a series of poor contributions to the thread in the full knowledge that they were weak. But point taken.

Why? He's being unreasonable and stubborn when people are contradicting him left and right. I've never seen him chuck a hissy fit in the other forums, but it seems that when it comes to Sony it's always a special case.

Probably because he likes the 360 more than any other console.. so you can't really expect him to act and respond to things objectively. Arguing with people that dont think the way you do is fun, but flame raging won't do much good.

Anyhow.. i agree, but still think people need to chill. Its only the inT3rN3Tz!

kowenicki is on full flame on mode i see, gee when it comes to MS advertising stuuf it will be epic and it will sell millions but when gt5 gets a slot on top gear it's ging to reduce sales?? biased much??

On topic I can't wait until I get my ps3 now, and in november I'm getting GT5, so far I have had to play on my friends ps3, he is so lucky, the ps3 is a total beast and has lured me.

Bunch of idiots, how can advertising on a show that has over 350M views hurt a game?

ROFL @ 360 fanboys!

GT5 will easily sell 5 million units. What makes GT special is the legs the game has. People just buy the system, and it's one of the games many people turn to have to purchase. GT5 will sell 3-4 million units in the first month (2 Million launch week). Will hit over 5 million about 6 months into the life of the game. And in my opinion I think it will finish off at approximately 8-9 million units. If Sony makes a bundle, you can see GT5 sell 10-12 million units. I mean GT5P sold nearly 3.8 M, which is the biggest Prologue release ever. If GT5P sold 1.4 million unit in month one, you can expec the ful game to sell at LEAST double that. So for safety sake, let us say GT5 ends with 2.8 after the first month. Take the same curve and it will sell about 7.64 million units in a little more than two years. That's pretty damn good estimate from only 35 million PS3 consoles. One of five people will own GT5, maybe even more.

I think the next GT game will come out in only 2 years time, 3 at the very most. They created this system to be such high quality so they can modify it with ease and release a new game without needing a ton of time. They will not have to create EVERYTHING from scratch. After this the PS4 will be announced and GT7 will come out on it. P-Digital seems to release two games per-system cycle and it's in good trend to follow that.

He is quite funny though, he argues till he's blue in the face. I can imagine him sitting at his computer after a hard day counting beans somewhere, going ape shit over a pro-PS3 thread.

Yeah, this is Kow.

Well, I only put it cos my girlfriend says the same about me. I'm just sharing the guilt :(

it just seems like you are arguing a point for the sake of argueing.  no matter what type of advertisement a company does it is guarenteed that only a fraction of the audience that sees it will care.  believe it or not but i have zero interest in tampon commercials and yet i see plenty of them on TV.

when halo 3 came out they had a deal with pepsi to release "gamer fuel" with halo on the can.  i could just as easily say that the fraction of pop drinkers that are insterested in gaming is low.  that fact is irrelevant though as it increased awareness of halo 3.  true fact: 100% of customers unaware of a product will not buy that product.
