WHAT THE FUCK?

Seriously, I'm amazed more of you aren't talking about this.

Not only is it ludicrous of him to suggest that Forza 3's existence will greatly mitigate the effect of GT5, but he's actually labelled Forza 3 "definitive of this generation" months before it's even been released.

Jesus. Fucking. Christ.

Please say someone else was equally as lost for words when they read that garbage.

Nope, I totally agree, Forza 3 will be the definitive racer of this generation :)

I agree in the end it might end up looking like this

DS = 170 million
PSP = 65 million
Wii = 150 million
360 = 80 million
PS3 = 50 million

That's so wrong I don't even know where to begin.

''recent GfK data reveiled that the 360 has been outselling even the Wii by 2:1 in the United Kingdom during the last five months.''

I thought those numbers were supposed to be a joke... this analyst cannot be taken seriously.

If you are going to use the sales argument, then Mario Kart Wii is the definitive racing game of this generation. More importantly, it contains mature features like driving Goombas over and shooting stuff at other racers.

which further proves that Sony is kiddy and should have included drivebys




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

I think this guy is right, and that Sony is finished. Contrary to what all the Sony die-hards say, the 360 has been outselling the PS3 since day one, and it's only increasing its lead over time. The 360 can challenge the Wii in the second-biggest gaming market worldwide: it might even reach 40 million units worldwide by the end of '09. The PS3 isn't even a gnat on its windshield anymore.

And don't start any of that "pricedrop!" bulls***; like this guy said, a price drop only gives you a slight increase on what you had before. Quick, what's 1.5 times nothing? Two times nothing? A million times nothing? Yeah, zero. Price drops didn't save the Gamecube, because no one wants to play the kiddy games that Sony offers now. Doesn't matter how cheap you are if no one wants you. Oh, and if price drops are so easy, why have they taken so long? For that matter, any penny Sony drops will be matched 1:1 by Microsoft. Checkmate, b****!

And software? Multi-platform games almost always sell more on the 360 than on the PS3. Developers hate that piece of s***: even die-hard Sony fanboys admit that! The future's even more bleak, since developers are already working on Natal while they haven't even received their Dildo Development Kits. Shoot, the 360 has a game taht's approaching 10 million sold: the pathetic PS3 top seller is a multiplat that's at half that. And that multiplat STILL sold better on the 360, despite the franchise previously being a "Sony game." So much for brand loyalty!

 

Dear Mr. PS3,

Bend over and grab ankles, 'cause you're f***ed.

Sincerely, Reality

Red- No, it hasnt...  PS3 was outselling it for a while when it got the pricecut. Plus, aligned launches = PS3 in front

Blue- The 360 aint nowhere near the Wii in the 2nd biggest market, Japan.

Orange- 360 pricecut did wonders

Green- Im sure you would know all about that

End- Im not even sure if your post was serious, so i decided to reply anyway

I thought Europe/Others was the second biggest market?

You are joking right? Europe is a continent and others is compose of many countries.

Japan is only 1 country.
