It's sad to see him permabanned but I guess he couldn't really decide between his posting style on GAF and here, the rules are harsher here by far (which is good). Still sad to see him gone but at least on GAF he can better say how he really feels and how he wants to express words.   Ask Carl.

This is the last I will say regarding ethomaz as it is off-topic but I think many people are "limited" in what they are allowed to say on this site. I know it is bannable to say people are fanboys and the site does all it can to make people behave better but it doesn't change what people are at their hearts. Yes, ethomaz always was, is and will be a Sony fanboy, in my opinion. Many others are fanboys, too, of course, more or less, which, in my opinion is totally ok and to me, it is also totally ok if you call a person a fanboy if it not meant in a "bad" way.

Ethomaz is always happy when Sony wins and is happy when MS loses. He defends Sony whenever they are "attacked" and whenever it is possible and tries to put a bad light on MS whenever it is possible. Again, in the way he does it in his "natural" behavior this is totally fine by GAFs standards where people can more openly show their colors but not here. In the end, again, I think he will find a more comfortable home at GAF - but I also expect some comments from him on GAF about the site and its community but there he is also in good "society" as hating on VGC is common on GAF.

It's dumb to say something like that when the WiiU barely sold any better than last November, despite having much better deals!   And give me a good reason why the nx will be a sales monster halfway in this gen with ps4 having a 40+ mill headstart?   Mark my words nx gonne fail

 

I agree, Nintendo should ride out the Wii U until next gen and make their money from software and Amiibo ( they are actually making money). An overwhelming majority of gamers this gen now own a PS4 or Xbox 1, and if NX was competitive in specs, I just cant see anybody buying an NX just for Nintendo games other than the 11-12 million that already own a Wii U. Releasing a mid gen console is suicide, Wii U as awesome as it is, Is proof of that. Nintendo aren't bleeding money anymore , and now have the mobile venture for extra revenue, so they ought to take their time with the NX, study the market and wow gamers with the best possible product for the start of a new gen.

So PS4 has hit 11M LTD right? In the US

oh my goodness, those Tomb Raider numbers are just awful

Lara Croft and Bayonetta deserves so much more

Unfortunately yea

You will be missed Ethomaz! 

From GAF-NPD-thread:

"Thank you for telling me who ZhugeEx is! I will remember to avoid him."

From the guy we have all the numbers.

 

Can anyone tell me what actually Zhuge is? Why do people have problems with him or her?

Wow VGC just made massive adjustments, PS4 is up 2.0M, now at 32.3 million.

Maybe he leaked sales that are not supposed to be leaked?

He posts in this thread and has an account on VGC, you can ask him yourself.

He's a huge Koei-Tecmo fan who seems to have a massive interest in numbers.  iirc, he was involved in getting the Media Create White Paper for GAF when they were chipping in for that, so I wouldn't put it past him to have gotten NPD numbers from the source too.
