Saying it before isn't every time Seece. I agree with observations, you really are being ridiculous here.

What do you mean everytime? Saying "all games push HW" ... you only have to say it once to mean it .. unless you don't mean it anymore.

I said all games push hardware? Show me.

lol, I don't bookmark all the funny posts you make CGI. If I ever come across it again I'll wall post you it.

I see, so it's a BS claim, once again. If you can't put your money where your mouth is, don't push the issue.

Eh, no it isn't. I remember what I saw, heck didn't you just admit you said it once? Like I said, when I find it one day I'll wall post you it. Don't go too frantic searching through your post history to edit it

There's nothing to edit, because I know I didn't say every game moves hardware. I have said that certain games move hardware, and certain games did move hardware. But I've never said every game moves hardware.

Good luck looking for it though.

Actually, not to hate on you, CGI, but I remember you saying somthing like this too.

Perhaps it was someone else, but it does sound very familiar to something I saw you post once.

I have never said every single game moves hardware. But I'd love some proof if it's true.

I will look.  I think it was either in a Halo Reach thread or something around that time frame.  I wish you could search GamrConnect but the search function only looks up users for me...

I'm going to use the undertrackz-card for now :P

Oh, wow. When I google undertracked this pic comes up at the first page:

 

 

:P

LOL LO LOL

My opinion is on the first page.

For PS3 was on spot (great numbers) but GT5 was undertacked becuase que number of some contries in EMEAA puts GT5 near 1 million.

That's impossible that it has sold just 1.2m.

Wating massive adjustments or official reports or updates in Polyphony list.

Oh the discussions in here...

 

GT5 great sales!!! The PS3 boost is a bit lower than I expected, but still good!

And well, the Wii..., 1st place this year is safe, I guess.



2012 - Top 3 [so far]

                                                                             #1                                       #2                                      #3

look at just dance 1 numbers

Yeah,but what opponent did just dance have?Exactly,none.When people look at GT5's score,they will see that NFS:HP and Forza 3 have higher reviews,and what will they do,in the most probable case?Choose them over GT5.

That may not make a big difference,but it still has a small impact.

then look at just dance 2 numbers then :P dance central has a higher meta score and was still beaten

Stupid comparison, DC is on a new platform, by the end of this holiday it'll have a 5 million install base to sell to, Just Dance will have 16 times that.

I get your point, but I don´t think user base matters that much. A game can still sell well despite the user base. It has been proven before.

Depends on the franchise and the scale of the previous games numbers. GT4 ect were bought by a lot of casual PS2 users, that have more than likely moved onto Wii or 360. Very few will jump over for an 85 rated sim when they can get 2 90 plus rated ones on 360.

Like the casuals who buy call of duty would be swayed by slightly less than expected reviews right? Come on.  Most of them don't care about reviews.  If anything that hurts the core purchases more.  Name goes for a lot, GT is know to be the best. 

They care when they can get 2 BETTER sims on 360 rather than 1 good sim on PS3 .. ya they care :-S couple that with the obvious fact 360 is most likely to attract PS2 users this gen.

Which games are you referring to? I would be surprised if there was a better driving sim on consoles!


But there is psedudo-sims with higher META and LESS SALES... whichever you need to win an argument

I don't know why anyone thinks PS3 is undertracked - 330k is an excellent figure for this time of year in EMEEA. The only reason Wii is slightly ahead of PS3 in the region is because there was a new Mario Kart Wii Sports bundle this week in addition to the previous bundles, seasonality, big games, evergreens, etc all pushing Wii.


Don't really think PS3 is undertracked so much as GT5 is. As I pointed out above based on the hard data that we currently have the sales don't really add up.

don´t worry it will be fine

I'm not siding with Galaxy, I'm happy it is being outsold by a 5 year old game mawhawhahw.



Above: still the best game of the year.

Some people might care, but I think most won´t. I think most GT buyers are GT fans rather than racing sim fans.

maybe the sales won´t be as lage as in the past, but I don´t think they will be down by much either.


Guilty of charge, i Have all GT's but don't like other sims, sometimes i play F1 or NFS, but never find it as exciting and difficult.

X360 & PS3 undertracked. Will be waiting for PD shipped copies anouncment next month to see if GT5 is undertracked or not.

And why the Wii isn't undertracked? Is it because it is in first?


It's because everybody allready have a Wii and all number from now on are just shipped that will never be sold.
