Of course they wouldn't.  It would be a huge thread of teeth ithcing high grade schmaltz.  Pictures of cakes, candles, streamers the works.

If the biggest PS3 excluisve managed to outsell the biggest 360 exclusive we would never hear the end of it. 

But this way round its somehow grubby and tacky.


It would be the exact same situation reversed. And you would both be part of it.

Hypocrisy, when you hold them.

Oh joy, here he is again, Mr Grumpy.  An off topic personal slight again with no evidence. 

Actually no.  I just wouldn't visit the thread.  There are plenty of examples if you could get off your very, very high horse and go look.

You are becoming very irritating with your holier than thou, pious attitude.   

If you hold such a large part of this site in such contempt... the door is open.  You seem to have an issue with the whole reason d'etre of the site to be hoenst.  The nature of the site will engender this kind of debate and argument... however trivial... its just a bit of fun for god sake.

You bleat about how sad people are to have such affiliations and yet all you do is spend your entire time seeking out posts to moan about, dont think you are too different really. 

You sem to enjoy putting other human beings down in a way that comes across as you think you are better... hmmm? 

What does that tell us? After all the internet can allow us to be whatever we want to be.  Can't it?  I'm sure you know what I mean.

 

 

 


Were you looking in a mirror when you wrote that? xD

And just so you know, you're not (among some others) "a large part of the site". ^_-

oh... his ultra reasonable persona cracks.

Aside from your obvious bias for sony and nintendo (actually just your obvious distaste for MS is what I shoudl have said), despite your protestations to the contrary.  If you cant see yourself in that post I just made then I genuinely pity you.

My life is very full, its very succesful, thats why I can some here and piss about like a kid with no regard for what it means or if it matters.  Cos you know what.... it means nothing and it doesnt matter.

 


Then if it means nothing, why so bitter all the time? You don't like when someone gives you a taste of your own medicine?

Again, you are assuming.  I really, really dont care.  You know how when you read a post in a forum or an eamil from someone, you can read it in a different tone in your head and give it a different meaning or vibe.... The internet is full of misinterpretation and mistake.  I do think some poeple here go too far and need to be outed as idiots but aside fom that I really am not arsed what someone says or does, about me or otherwise.

I'm more interested in why you feel the need to enter a thread, nay a whole forum on a SALES site, where you know the nature of debate will be pretty low, fan focussed and argumentative and then just go around essentially telling people to grow up and constantly banging on about hypocricy.

OF COURSE that is how it is here... what did you expect?

I'm on other forums where the debate is nothing like this... its horses for courses. 

 

Well, I'm not really assuming. Since you said it yourself: "You are becoming very irritating with your holier than thou, pious attitude. "

 

When I don't care, people's attitude don't get to me. And I just ignore the comments and don't reply. ^_-

Yep. I do care. =P

quality sells 87 metacritic vs 84 there was no way halo 4 wouldn't outsell GT5 when it's a far superior game :P



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

Interesting you ignore the main thrust and again just pick on words.... its all very clear to me now.  Its a power trip thing... dont worry you can still achieve all you want to in life. You are still young.

But this has derailed enough.  I have taken it to your wall.

As funny as this has been to read. You guys don't see the irony of having a lengthy argument over who cares less? Let me help fix this for you.

You're both winners and Mommy and I are very proud of you both. Now lets put down the weapons and move on.

lol no. It will be your usual pictures and gifs. Any 360 fans with their comments will be insta ganged up upon.

Here, when 360 fans claim a victory, people such as yourself come in with some pious attitude and discredit and cheapen the event.

I read your convo with kowen, your mentality difference to him or me doesn't change the fact that your still here where we are. Were in the same boat, wasting time on a gaming forum. Showing your obvious disdain doesn't make you look any better, you have no idea how we act or how successful we are in the real world. This stuff is semi serious fun were having here. The fact that your even here negates this high and mighty persona your projecting.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Funny you'd mention this. This is precisely your behaviour in the thread discussing the PS3 outselling the 360 by the end of the gen. Since you condemn that, that's indeed hypocrisy.

I'm not here to shit on any achievements or the enjoyment people get out of them.  I'm certainly not like you who gets his daily fix by pissing on people's parade for no reason other than to piss them off. In the real life? I don't need to know how successful of a person, or how socially savvy you are to know that a part of it is you getting at your desk to get a kick out of pissing people off on the internet.

Remember people treat people as you'd want to be treated. Kindness is free. Ignorance is expensive!

Don't remember being able to shoot things in Gt5....What about a BO2 vs Halo 4 seems like a fair better comparison.
