Oh yeah, you missed the thread where the community (And even mods!) Tried to throw VGC numbers under the bus when they thought Kaz said 1.3 million sold instead of 1.3 million playing. It's amazing that VGC was thrown under the bus so quickly when different numbers came in. Surprising that mods would jump on the bandwagon too. It's known that members of the community will call out the numbers, but your own moderators? For shame.

But they were all pwned, when I was right because he did say 1.3 million playing, like I said he said, when no one wanted to listen to me.

/sigh

Being right all the time sure is tiring.

That's because your reasoning was completly ilogical and wrong.

You being right was incidental.

congrats Darth! I love any game that I can enjoy playing even a little bit that my girl loves..which right now is this one and Resistance 2 (go figure)..LBP FTW!

DmeisterJ you weren't right at all. Your argument was because IGN said played that it must have been played that was said. Whereas every other single website had it said as sold. You took the word of one source over multiple other sources.

People always take official numbers over VGC. It makes sense, they are after all official. If Nintendo revealed they had only shipped 40million Wiis no one would expect the site to keep it's number. You only took VGC numbers because you are a fanboy and refused to believe LBP may have sold the lower number.

If I said wii fit would sell amazingly and then the logic I used was because I had a dream it would. I wouldn't be right I would be lucky.

Jai93485 was the first person to actually get confirmation it was played and not sold so credit goes to him. SSJ12 also did earlier but since he couldn't name a source it was still unsure.

And indeed darth you did win. Even with margins of error LBP should easily be above 1.5million.



Turkish says and I'm allowed to quote that: Uncharted 3 and God Of War 3 look better than Unreal Engine 4 games will or the tech demo does. Also the Naughty Dog PS3 ENGINE PLAYS better than the UE4 ENGINE.

Congrats darth. And the best thing is that things should only get better from this point forward.

lol kas and zim... bitter he was right the whole time? and his arguement wasn't what you are making it seem like at all.



Torillian on 11 January 2009

Indeed you did win as far as any evidence we can provide suggests. I'll admit I had my doubts the first couple of weeks, but I'm glad to see LBP was able to win you the bet and sell that many copies.

Congratulations, it was a tough bet to call. It could have gone either way. But i'm very happy that you won, and moreso that LBP is selling as amazingly as it has.
