I think Snesboy has something against Xbox 360.


I noticed.... I was very tempted at times to write  "loser talk" on some of these sony fanboys posts. I remember it being done to ms fans when the sony fans  "make.believed" they won.

The "sore loser talk" originates from Zane_Wane, an MS supporter

Wasn't it sales?

I forget, they both make sometimes uberly stupid posts.

no I'm pretty sure it was zane. Sales at least explains his view most of the time, Zane just writes short posts meant to irritate.

Hey, I still remember your less than %10 chance post. :D

less than 10% for what? 


Chance of ms winning 2011.

Okay. 10% still means there's a chance, so it's not like I was wrong.


Right... <>_<>



Yay!!!

Lol no. You have to agree it looked very unlikely before the holidays began. Just because 360 managed to scrape a victory doesn't mean it wasn't unlikely going in.


Nah I'm kidding. 10% would be a very fair estimate, if that in all honesty.

Are you people really this dumb? I'm just ROFL at how stupid some of you are. It's US only. No way the 360 even could win worldwide, everywhere else they got stomped. It's strictly US only and probably most shipments. Shame you fools don't know the difference between shipped and sold. But by all means go ahead and celebrate most shipments, Sony can celebrate most SOLD WORLDWIDE


Hur hur, adjustments have already been done(Not sure if prematurely) NPD tonight and shipment data in the new few weeks, then it'll be known for certain who won the year.

What adjustments? The first numbers showed 14.3 million for the X360 in 2011 and it still says 14.3 million for 2011 (from 50.3 at Jan 1st 2011 to 64.6 on Jan 1st 2012).

Something's definately been adjusted, main page has Xbox 360 64.9 and PS3 61.1 million

The 64.9 million includes the first week of 2012 (300K for X360). But you are right. VGC had the X360 at 14.13 million for 2011 at first, now it's adjusted up to 14.31 million and almost beating PS3 (14.38 mill).

Yeah, too many kids posing as "real" gamers these days.  If you didn't load a game off a tape in your life then you can only be so much of a "hardcore" gamer.  You try playing a game that you finally get to the next level, you load it on tape just to find it crashed because you didn't have the volume set on just the right mark.  Old school games would drive you to want to put a fist through a TV in frustration then 5 minutes later put the biggest grin on your face with achievement.  A games supposed to be fun, I don't care how they make it fun to play as long as it achieves that goal.  I think sometimes the very definition of game is lost on some people " an activity that one engages in for amusement".

Great post btw


I always makes me chuckle when people talk about load times nowadays. 30-40 seconds to load a level? To anyone who has had to wait 5mins for a game to(hopefully) load, less than 60 seconds is bliss!


I remember the microcomputer era (I had an Amstrad CPC 464) and some games lasted up to 15 mins to load, and sometimes it failed in the last minute. I really hated it, totally frustrating. Young guys don't know what is to wait for a game :)

LOL, good times, and bad at the same time! I had to pierce my tape recorder with a hot nail to be able to reach the azimuth screw, the Spectrum was so fussy! But when I was already spoilt by the PC cozyness, I eventually decided to make an upgrade also to shorten Myth's load times. And now I'm even considering to buy a console again, my last one was the Intellivision, for the times Windows gets screwed and I want to play but I don't want to bother fixing that darn sorry excuse for an OS.

And not only to PS3 fans, to PC ones too! He did it to me too, I felt like I was unwillingly taken back to kindergarden times and I was strongly tempted to answer him "Mirror on you"!
