i'm getting so tired of those ignorant kiddies.

I don't really understand why they hate the site so much

It is because they have tiny, tiny penises.

I lol'd at this post...

"Since publishers quote NPD numbers in their press releases as a source for sales, I guess we can call them real numbers"

Who did Square Enix source for the numbers?

There also a guy who claims "no matter how close the numbers are though, they're stilled pulled out of his ass". No, they seriously think he guesses the numbers withing a 5-10% margin of error every week for several years? There's even been times when he was more precise than NPD themselves (DS debacle holiday of 2008 I think).

Funny how those things don't get talked about on gaf aint it?

This might sounds like a noob-ish question

But what exactly is NeoGaf? Is it just another gaming forum or more? Because i see it quoted here in the forums a lot in terms of news and stuff.

Plus looking at the thread about Bayonetta, those dudes have some issues with VGChartz, yet they cannot provide better data. Did we hurt them when they were babies?

NeoGAF is the biggest gaming forum on the internet



Good sales for the PS3, congrats to Sony...

Looks like MS needs to do something fast, the US is the last place where they were in front in weekly hardware sales, they can't let PS3 get on top there too.

They seem to be offended that Brett (ioi) made something of himself and this site. They're mostly elitist snobs who recycle old internet memes and offer a stratling lack of insight into any and all things related to games and gaming, much like most forums, yet they see themselves as better than mostly everyone.

GAF is a lost cause guys! It's personal and will never change

Yeah, totally true. Not in the short or mid-term at least. But I bet they will change their minds in years to come. VGChartz rules so hard that they will have to admit it.

1st reaction: Holy crap the Wii is high!

2nd take: Actually, the DS is running low. Must be post-holiday supply constraints.

Old news, the PS360 battle is far more interesting

I don't find a battle for 2nd place too interesting TBQH. I mean it's like watching the battle for the silver medal in the olympics.

2nd place in sales this generation is the 1st place console with gamers

gamers are typically interested in what gamers play and we all know it's not the wii

No, it really doesn't. Your point seems to be that the battle for second place is between the consoles with the best games, and while it's certainly imaginable that this is very true according to whatever value set you use to quantify library quality, it's also blatantly untrue of an equally large demographic.

Your definition of "gamer" is too narrow.

Is the 120GB PS3 still in short supply?

Both the Wii and PS3 are still heavily supply constrained here in New Orleans.  We get shipments every few days and sell out within an hour.

Both consoles are currently sold out online at BestBuy.com as well. In store pick-up is not available for either, while the 360 is in ready supply.
