you have to read in in context with the rest of the sent the sentence and im not sure if its gramatically correct but hes saying its not just because its a new console that its selling well.

It is right...

"...isn't ... just because" is a expression... the transaltion works in Portuguese too.

The "isn't" is denying the reason... not the fact the console is selling well.


im familiar with the expression, just proper written english isnt my strong suit so i didnt wanna say for sure.    I think one would have to use "aren't" or "are not"  if they are talking about the console not doing well.



I am Torgo, I take care of the place while the master is away.

"Hes the clown that makes the dark side fun.. Torgo!"

Ha.. i won my bet, but i wasnt around to gloat because im on a better forum!  See ya guys on Viz

Your thread title reads isnt selling well. It should read it is selling well. Unless you are a troll. 4.2 million in 6 weeks is sellng well. I took time out of my life to tell you about your stupid mistake.


Read the thread title before you start calling people trolls....Gamers these days.

 

Edit: I also took the time out to tell you about your stupid mistake.

I really liked Kaz's keynote at CES...although the last 5 minutes of the talk it felt like Kaz was shouting at me and saying the same things over and over.

I think Kaz and other executives who speak at CES should be a bit more like Steve Jobs when revealing new products. With Kaz in particular i think hes capable of doing it. Some execs simply cant speak english or no absolutely nothing about the products. Kaz has been saying for a while now that he is personally involved in some products and i feel that if that is true that he should be able to talk about them without the need for a prompt.

When Steve jobs did the iphone reveal man that was amazing. He spoke freely about a product he was passionate about. Kaz's keynote was somewhat personal and i feel it would have been even better if he spoke freely rather than reading.

Btw did we have a thread for the CES keynote? Its quite an honour for Sony to open CES...surprised it hasnt sparked more threads about it.

Kaz is either delusional or full of shit. Neither system has anything unique to it that makes it different than its predecessors, nor do either have any must have games......at the moment. The only emotion moving things is fanboys emotions moving them to buy 1st gen hardware.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

I tried both console (I have one of them btw) and I can confirm that both delivers a complete new expersience compared with PS360... after you touch them you will hate what you have on PS360 (I know because I'm using PS3 to play GT6).

I can't see how I lived until today without my PS4... while it is not a revolution I'm sure it is evoulution in every way compared with PS3.

Nothing wrong with the title. I know it and English is far from my first language :).
