So... Can I get some "I'm sorry DMJ" from some people?

I said they said played, and meant online, and *gasp* I was correct.

Hrm...

No.  The way you arrived at your conclusion was still assinine.

If i were to say I would win the lottery tommorrow... and i reasoned this because I had wore my lucky shirt...

I'd still be wrong for assuming it.

Horrible analogy, try again.

guys they misquoted. i just called sony's pr department in the usa. he said playing online. his speech was about the psn. what would sold copies have anything to do about the psn since it isnt sold on the ps store like warhawk and socom. 1.3m users online. end of story. vgc did not overtrack.

Let me get the number.

 

 

He does have such contacts through his work with VGChartz.

However, he does occasionally use said contacts as "proof" for false claims.

The guy on that forum actually had a scan with real numbers. The scans were taken down, but the numbers and the guy are legit.

 

 Scans of what? =/ I've read the thread linked to and when questioned DMeisterJ's response is the guy posted scans (of what is never mentioned)  with weekly sales figures that matched up to already released figures. He then gave away LTD figures with no scans at all. The numbers seem right but that is in no way a legit source. It certainly can't be quoted as fact.

Basically it's some unknown guy said figures that were already released and had some scans with those figures on. He then went on to say LTD sales, with no scans. A no name source, quoting no source, it's about as unreliable as it gets. You can't use it as ''Here are official sales of these games in the Uk''

 

Scans of GFK weekly numbers, and it might some unknown guy but he had undisputable evidence for his credibility and I saw it myself. If you posted a scan with NPD numbers then you'll be some unknown guy but you'll also be credible.

Alrighty then. I still say the numbers are old.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Agreed, and I still say he said played (which IGN agrees), and he meant played, since he was talking about the PSN and number of users and HOME.

Alas, we shall never know.

Not at all... you took the word of one site over the word of many... just because it's what you wanted to be true.

If 9 out of 10 dentists agree that one toothpaste is better then the other...

the only reason you are agreeing with the 10th guy is your own hopes.
