Those were all just predictions. No need to rub it in anyone's face if they were wrong.

Lol, I wouldn't really say predictions, per se.  Most of these people weren't predicting, they were telling us how it WOULD happen, not how it may happen if certain things went right.

Yeah, I can agree with this. That kind of behaviour does irritate me, so I enjoy seeing people called out for it.

It reminds me of that absolute mess of a thread where people were predicting how the WiiU and Vita would do last year.

I agree.

Sony studios can create single player experiences far beyond the quality of third party games so it adds more value to the system than creating online focused games which still cant beat third party online games.

Having said that, the online modes on its games are still extremely good with LBP, uncharted and killzone a few examples.


Geez. I edited that whole comment out practically as soon as I posted it and then still got quoted on it :/

COD is dying a quick death 

I'm not a fan of COD but wat :P The last COD just sold 20.6 million (and still selling). The 360 version alone sold almost as much as Halo 4. Is that dying too? ^^;

Sometimes it's unbelievable what statements people make.

This is why people should avoid making gloating statements on forums. Some of those quotes were borderline inflammatory and condescending.

Yeah, I remember when Sony fanboys kept predicting the PS3 to dominate early last gen. They were made fun of for much the same things as MS fanboys are nowadays; making predictions almost entirely on their bias and intense dislike for the 'opposing team'.

Opposing fanboys rubbing it in each others' faces is nothing new. Don't say it's unfair when it was done since over seven years ago!

So you make a thread to call out people that couldn't predict the future... have we hit a new low? I think we have.

Tuscaniman, are you really trying to argue with this? Don't quarell with them, you'll never get anything out of this and they'll make fun of you in a few months... at least that's an easy thing to predict.

For me I see it more as calling out people that keep making predictions out of there asses yet pretend that they know better than others (for whatever reasons) most, I repeat, most of the guys in the op are constant offenders, they have a '' my prediction is better than yours complex'' and won't admit of being wrong so threads like this are used to bring them back to reality but I don't kid myself they probably won't learn from this.

i think you nail it here.

..that said, there are a couple poster in my favorite fanbase that could use a thread of their own.  not to name names.  not that i have to.  :P

One of those person wrote on that very page with another funny answer. You can expect those to continue.

admitting your failures and learning from your mistakes.
I find it ironic that most quoted haven't done this, despite the fact that the main reason they were wrong was because they expected Sony to not learn from the PS3.
If MS didn't learn about the casual from Wii, they would probably be in a better position. Trying to be the Wii is a recipe for failure.

Dear God, another circle jerk thread. What is this? NeoGaf?

Do you people have shares in Sony?
