you definately could have kept that one to yourself dude.

Gay Blade goes with X360 interface that looks oh so Lame and is an easily Flamed Name! Like the GameGod that’s a Lame Flaming Gamer!

That right there is clearly an ignorant statement. How is Japanese or French not used? If a person knows more than two lanuages fluently you can assume that person is ingelligent. If you spoke Latin fluently I wouldn’t call that stupid because nobody speaks it, I would still think the person smart because they actually learned it.

In my post earlier I clearly stated
I didn’t even use precise numbers
I just used ones that the majority of people have heard, not wasting my time pulling numbers off the net.
Besides, you missed the point. It wasn’t about the selling numbers, it was about how much money Sony is losing.

this comment is out of place. this isn’t about fanboyism. this is about condemning an ongoing practice that has plagued the business world almost forever: the misrepresentation of a business entity’s performance by half-wit analysts!

“Do you have a parental authorization for the preceding diatribe against my posterior??? If the response to the preceding one is affirmative, I await you on my linguistic field, to see whether you are also virtuosos in stupid things that in your mother tongue… Just while passing, your lack of arguments as well as the weak formulation of your reasoning, all the more cheap as is mixed of a feeling reluctant lack of the basic education… insult as good seems to you my nice, the history of the white dove and of the clamping plate does not age…”

I speak French and Japanese (although my Japanese is pretty rusty)

You peeps are all just jealous cuz everything he said was Oh So True! And the fact that little donation of a chip to Nintendo while he was still working at Sony means he worked there is assinine. But keep believing your on the same level as Ken and you’ll get tossed back in the crazy can with your other lowlife nutzoid buddies!

Developer???? Mwaa…ha….ha Burnt again!

$1.1 billion dollars left to make up for all those PS3’s that have sold since NPD reported those numbers. And I didn’t even use precise numbers. So give me a break and give yourself a break. Unless PS3 starts majorly selling some massive numbers in games and accessories its going to be hard to keep watching Sony with a positive point of view.

“Having been a marketing manager in the gaming industry for 4 years, I can assure you there is a huge difference between units shipped and units sold. Units shipped strictly implies the number of copies you have sent out into the distribution chain (distributors and retailers combined). Units sold indicates the number of copies actually in the hands of consumers.

For some publishers, they really don’t care to discern the difference, because once they receive their money from the distribution chain, it’s considered sold. It’s then up to distributors and retailers to turn those units into “sold throughs”.

Many companies are quick to publish the shipping numbers to help a game’s success… but all it really means is that the distributors and retailers have “ordered large”, because they perceive that the title will have brisk sales over time. Either way though, all those copies aren’t in gamers’ hands just yet.”

But someone did point out that at least for Dead Rising many sites are using the word sold and even on Digital Battle you will find that they say that Lost Planet has sold over a million copies not just shipped. But I have yet to see the word “sold” in front of any PS3 numbers. Maybe someone can show me something that says differently though.
