Well Amazon is the largest retailer

True. And when MS does it you see like.. real bitter comments from users. Wish more of them could just laugh it off like people are doing here with Sony.

Though I guess it's easier to just laugh it off when the reach is so deep.



It would have been better to just stay quiet. With as much as ps4 is selling they could have just thanked the people who purchased ps4 and talk about psx.

Why did they even say anything? They just had PSX where they announced PS4 was the fastest selling console of all-time; there's nothing more to say after that.



How humble of Sony. They only mention one retailer when they could have come out guns blazing and said they were the top seller in the only market that counts for November. The Worldwide Market. They get extra points for squeezing the word humbled in there too.

And people are criticising Sony for doing the same in this very thread.  What's the difference?


If MSFT did this it would have 100 of comments.

The point is, none of these companies are perfect.  Theyre businesses and theyre going to make things sound as positive as they can.  There really shouldnt be a big deal made about it at all.  

on the other hand you have people making comments like this http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=194822&page=21 and there is a ton more comments like it in other topics&threads




       

Sony should mention all the markets they're number 1 in, Microsoft only had 2 and didn't shy away from naming them, Sony shouldn't be so humble.

Not just Amazon, 1 day of Amazon's hourly charts lol.

Edit: Congrats on the first thread.


Thanks.................................

WAIT...it's actually from the hourly charts? Let me laugh harder...

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Lol yes, what's funny is that they couldn't even claim BF week on Amazon, just the day.

I wonder if you and TC felt the same way towards Microsofts PR during the rest of this year.
