No double dip, TheDrill run out of the bet even though the terms were so favorable to him. As he said X1 in USA will outsell PS4 100k weekly from now on, so that would make it pass PS4 by January 10th. But on his bet terms X1 was to pass from March 11th to April 20th. So I was really at risk of being permabanned as obviously he and I think you are certain and right that X1 will have passed PS4 in USA at the time.

I don't think this bet wil weight down on your real life.

No but it would sure add insult to injury and my real life bet runs through the generation. So for every year the X1 is not winning NA. I pay at New Year. @_@

And I just payed recently... X_X

Besides I believe in bad luck. I don't want to jinx Drill and his predictions. Go Drill, you the new Panda bro! Only a drill.... yeah... >_>

Edit: Oops sorry mods I didn't see that post you made. I was just having fun. ^^


Hope your real life bet don't impact your pocket too much. Now I understand your fierce cheer.

Well I just have to move back on buying a game this month. ;_;

I should have never accepted the part where the winner gets to choose where to eat. They have bottomless stomach and went on a buffet. B@stards!

This sucks man.... to lose a games worth yearly is bad... at least you will enjoy a good time with your friends that perhaps wouldn't happen if not for the bet.

Yep... but let's get back to the topic...

Do you think that with price back to 400 X1 have a chance to pass PS4 in USA before holidays? Filter out your hope to not pay the bet.

Honestly (serious talk), I have my doubts on that. I'm hoping it does and the momentum carries over but the current history prior to the Holidays says otherwise.

So yeah doubtful.

Let's hope the price raise don't kill momentum too much and at least we still have some competition in USA during first 10 months, because certainly there will be blood during holidays again, just not sure if enough to cover for lost numbers during the rest of the year if the drop is too profound... things changed on that part comparing to previous gen.

You know your predictions have relevance when world recognize analysts make the same prediction of X1 outselling the PS4 in 2015.

World recognize analysts??? For real???

Even patcher that was world renowed was ridicularized here every prediction because he was always off on it...

But if you fell confident in your predictions why not take the bet?

Is saying you are one of the worst vgchartz members ever a bannable offense? Beacause I am totally saying that. Your threads are terrible, your ideas are terrible, your arguments are often totally bereft of logic, or even facts, yet you will not back down from them, only repeating yourself ad nauseum. Failing that, you take the exact same crap, tweak it a little, and start a new thread.

Don't remember you in the most epic topic globally in Vgchartz.
