Forums - Sales - John Lucas, the visionary

"give the man his due"

you all completely FLAMe Leo-J all the time for ONE GTA IV will kill the Wii Prediction

John Lucas made worse predictions like-- MGS4 will NOT go to PS3, PS3 will not live past 07 (yes he made this one back in the day)

& I'm meant to give him his due.

sorry but as usual John Lucas once again digs his own credibility into the ground with stupid predictions.



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

JL really has some skills, I bet we still can expect a couple of nice predictions along the way

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.

JL never predicted 500 million Wiis sold even though people say that almost every day around here. He said minimum 240 million, maximum 500 million.

Regarding his prediction about PS3 and Sony, I consider it luck if he gets it right. Sony will/would support the PS3 further unless they get into so much trouble that they have no other choice but to quit. But if the latter happens that's due to the economic downturn, which was not JL's reason for his prediction.

the SAME John Lucas who predicted 500 million Wii sold LT?

I'm sorry, I am a bit confused between the definition of "visionary" and "mad-man screaming"

 

 

I see Madskillz was stripped of modship. Can't say I'm too surprised about that.

Madskillz was a mod?

wasn't he? Hmmm, maybe I was wrong on that one.

all I remember about MadSkillz was his pro-HD-DVD stands and prediction about how quickly Blu-Ray format will die. :)

 I thought he owned Ps3/DS, so I don't think he is very biased against the Ps3.

Actually he's PSWii60, with a touch of MS bias.

lol,

he basically left VGChartz during 1 year because his console of choice was outsold by the PS3 and u call this a "touch of MS biais"

About John Lucas prediction and more precisely "PS3 health", I would say the past months have proven he was wrong so no needs to create a thread about free guess even if they come from JL.

Sony has no choice that to continue to sell their PS3 to get "some" money back



Time to Work !

LOL ... he's my ace, but he was on the money with his Sony prediction.

@ Libellule - nah, dog. Get your facts straight. I moved to Houston, TX and didn't have Web access for a while. Plus, I have been in the off-topic section with most of my posts. I didn't fade off this site due to the 360 getting *pummelled* by the PS3. No, I had a lot more fun posting in political threads, and posted less because I am super busy with reviews at the Houston Chronicle's Game Hacks blog or playing through games.

I was off for a month or two earlier this year. I went no where.

Go Obama!, I mean, Madskillz!

If we get to praise John for the good predictions, we need to heckle him for the bad (what was it, 60m Wiis by Jan 09?). I love reading JL's stuff and his passion is palpable, but let's face it: some (if not most) of his predictions were bat-shit crazy and failed badly.

You are correct - some of them are hella funny, but I was just pointing out the eery accuracy on the Sony prediction about the layoffs. That's it. It coulda been a shot in the dark, but it was an interesting read all-around.
