Funny how his name starts with "sales" and he doesn't even know what the word "flop" means in business terms. (I smell some extreme irony here LOL.)

What flop means in business terms and what it means on gaming forums are two different things and that should be well known by now.

Not sure why people are jumping down sales2099's throat.

This ain't no site about gaming LOL this site is supposed to be about dem SALES LMAO.

Then why are you here when other "gaming" sites are better at this shit. Were supposed to focus about the sales. Speak with other sites about killzone's metascore, not here. I'm surprised as to why vgchartz even allows threads about game press scores.

In 25+ years of gaming, I've never known the term "flop" used to describe a game's quality.



RIP Dad 25/11/51 - 13/12/13. You will be missed but never forgotten.

Because I like the gaming discussions here as well? Seriously...  >_>

And why are you surprised game press score discussion is allowed? This is a gaming forum as well. Check the forum index.

I'm even more surprised as to why vgchartz has a gaming discussion forum. -_-

So we can argue about inane shit between sales data. XD

What else did everyone expect? Its Killzone.....yeah the graphics are better this time around but at the end of the day its the same old killzone. They never even showed any ground breaking AI in the game demos just same old Killzone with a shinier floor and building. If you buy it you get exactly what you paid for no excuses or crying. By the way I guess all those stealth trolling threads and bias towards the Xbone and Wii U finally paid off.

You only look worse because his official definition is open to interpretation, and urban dictionary supports the stance since the word is more slang after all.

Words having more then one use.......its witchcraft and I must be burnt at the stake! lol

You still don't understand what "flop" means, don't you ? A flop is a game that will sell poorly and I highly doubt killzone SF will sell less than 2 mill lifetime. Since this is a game business site the term "flop" around here means sold poorly. Go to GAME sites instead of SALES sites to bring the the fight over there instead of here because metascores are irrelevant in a place called "vgchartz". 

Clearly many people, including the OP, use the word to define when something "falls below expectations". The official dictionary/urban dict. definition is open to interpretation and does in fact accomodate the use I am using.

A game business site? lol please. This is a gaming forum that accomodates all sorts of gaming discussion. When people predict a certain meta bracket and the reality falls below.....what word would you suggest?

Either way, when you find yourself arguing over uses of words in a dictionary to save face over a video game that you somehow find yourself obligated to defend....I think you are having an off day :P

Take the flop like a man and make a better informed prediction next time. If its met, good job. If its higher, then that's even better news. Flops happen on both sides.
