what? atleast provide a source for a claim like that

Yes indeed will you give me a refund  =p?

Is that why you are defending them now? =p?

Nintendo was releasing every quarter chartz about Europe... only 2012 360 is under 300-400k by these chartz... how can VGC not sure where the 360 is undertracked? The chartz even have the contries divided.

defending who exactly? actually when in this thread did i defend anybody?

expected?? i think youre missing the point systems declined 9% xbox live membership increase 18% wouldnt you think that theses two would have a direct relationship. if i told you that hotdog weiners sales dropped 9% would you expect hotdog buns to increased 18% 

Shipments were down less than 10%.

"Ballmer is a disaster"! "Microsoft is doomed"! "X360 fail"!

Time for the next 4 months of inconceived nonsense.

Thanks for the numbers kow, great job as always.

It's you that doesn't know how Skype works.  Skype is peer to peer, meaning your conversation is routed through someone else's computer.  If their bandwidth fluctuates, than your connection may fluctuate.  This is one reason why when you attempt to exit Skype, it doesn't close the program but rather minimizes it.  So your connection can be used to route other connections. 

There may be various reasons why you lose the connection, depending who each party is.  A connection between Europe and the US has to go across a trans-Atlantic connection.  Which is the same wire that has existed since they laid down the first telephone cable. 

Not that I really care about this conversation but you got that wrong shipments declined 9% YoY. While the total Xbox live numbers increased 18% overall. Or do I have it wrong? If it is 18% yoy then that would be weird to me.
