Everyone hopes to pull a BHR one day

An epic fail?

No, an epic win. He's our oracle after all

Pretty inaccurate oracle you got there then

Ok, Now I can't predict more... I have to be afraid to be banned too?

No. I don't think MS are lying... I thing they just rounded the figure... 65.6, 65.7, 65.8, 65.9 are all rounded to 66.0.

I guess I'm wrong but that's my PREDICTION... it's not a FACT.

Edit - Explained.

What are you talking about .... we're just disputing your shipment figures, put them at whatever you like (and absurd to think you'd be banned for it)

I thought you took this seriously though and tried to be as close as possible, was only trying to help.

You helped me and I changed my prediction to 8.1m... thanks... I guess the LTD shipped was 77.6 and not 77.4.

Thats OK, but the CEO of Microsoft said OVER 66M.  Is that 66,000,001 or is it more we dont know. It just isnt less.



Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.

77.6 not 77.4? huh, I'm confused

I already pointed that out, exactly like when they said over 50m last CES and they shipped 50.8m

Just a typo... 57.4 is the LT... I guess it was 57.6.

So I guess M$ will ship 8.1m to 8.4m.

K, that makes more sense. Just to let you know they said more than 66m sold at CES, and asked IGN to change their article from 66m sold, to more than 66m sold.

Hahahahahahhahahahah!!!!!!

 

Yeah,  it's not like MS would get in trouble for that. It's not like they reported over 50 million last year when the total was 50.8. What you wrote made total sense.

 

Hahahahahhahahahhahhah!!!
