Holy... wow. What an awful week, lol.

Well, I did much better than I thought I'd do (considering my stupid Wii Fit bet), but did I really top accuracy with 67%? Those new games bombed hard, Kirby fell down as well, almost universal 0's.

Ah, said this so many times, I oughtta stick to my guns next time. I really did think Killzone would do less, but it seemed too dangerous...

I'll definitely be in the next round. I'm getting a laptop soon (should come in any time now), can finally do all this internet stuff whenever I want!

I think that the week we based our kirby numbers off of used to be a lot higher (it now shows 12k). If you look at the sales history, there is no way I'd ever bet as much as I did on kirby with what it is now. I threw a few hundred away on various games




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

Well, this is the beginning of a couple of rounds I didn't participate in. Results will be boring for some weeks for me

Yeah, I agree - I checked as well. They had to be at least 19k or higher, I think. Generally for software I'm unsure of I bet 10-15% less than normal to ensure I don't get caught in those 0's, obviously didn't help this time...

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Ah, didn't notice that. Grats oliist!

Funny thing is, it was the only hardware he didn't bet $1000 on, when he would've made something near like $500 on it

The money i didn't win is not the problem itself (I'll update today for vg$400-500).
But the fact that the PS3 was the only system I felt insecure about makes me *eyes rolling*. ;)

lol, I got 5 with 0%, and everything else was above 71%. Had I not screwed those up so bad, I would have had a really good round.

This was pretty bad week only 54% accuracy.

Too many of us predicted Killzone 2 too high.

Oliist great prediction with ps3 100%.
