Dude, stop being so biased. I said the same exact thing he said. If you're going to take the approach that him saying XB1 has the best games is opinion based, then you should take the SAME approach with me when I said PS4 had the better games.

And yes, he DID say people would be crying. these are HIS words that I responded to.



Like I said, I'm just fighting trolling fire with trolling fire. My comments are NOT directed at XB1 fans, but rather to TD. It's kinda sad that you felt the need to call me out for doing exactly what he did, yet you remained silent to his comments.
He did not post what you claimed he did in the post you quoted. I see he posted it in an earlier post, not the one you quoted in the post of yours that I quoted.

So, in other words......he did say it. Like I said, if what I said is deemed to be a slight against XB1, then his comments should be deemed and scrutinized the same way.


(for the record, I'm not attacking XB1, I was commenting on a particular poster)

Since it seems as if this was a trail of posts, not just the one exchange I saw, I'll leave it as "not a problem," and apologize. The two post exchange I saw I don't consider his a slight and yours I did, but, going back to his previous post, I can see why you would consider it a slight and give a little give back. Again, I apologize.
 
Qbert, we're talking about TD here.

Tomorrow he'll say PS4 has the best games. Then next week Xbox. Rinse and repeat. You cant seriously have taken his post as a slight right?

For the record, I think TD is hilarious. I think I get his angle. Showing how ridiculous the console warrior mentality is.

TD at least is not aggressive or get butthurt easily.

Some guys take things a bit too seriously here. We are comparing games & consoles, not comparing your kids with neighbour's kids!

I know, that's why I said fighting trolling fire with trolling fire. I know his angle, and really didn't take it as a slight. I was just pointing out that if someone were to call "my" comment a slight, one would only need to see what I was responding to.

He's a nut case but at least he's actually a multiconsle player.
That I respect.
 
Wait, so ps4 sold about 3,5million til November, let's add 2,5 million for 2013 & December, making 6 million in an. Sony announced 18,5million beginning of the year.

So why are we so obsessed with ndp? It present less than 1/3 of ps4 sales....

Because we have always been reminded in the very thread for every month, the ps4, won NDP. It was important then, but its not be important now I see.

I want to thank all of the Xbox fans who contributed to our record-setting holiday and making 2014 such a successful year. The Xbox One deals were quite popular and have inspired a new promotion starting January 16 where fans in the U.S. can buy an Xbox One for $349 at their preferred retailer.

Some interesting statistics about 2014:

• Xbox 360 became the best-selling seventh generation console of all time in the U.S.

• In 2014, users logged nearly 8 billion hours globally in apps across Xbox 360 and Xbox One, a
50 percent increase from time spent in 2013.

• Xbox One became the best-selling console in the U.S. in November and December and weekly average sales during these months outpaced Xbox 360 by 50 percent at the same point in its lifecycle.*

• Xbox One also sold more games throughout November and December in the U.S. than any other current-generation platform.*

• From November 24 to January 3, fans spent more time playing on Xbox than they ever have before, at any point in the history of Xbox.

• In the Halo 5: Guardians Multiplayer Beta alone, 18 million games have been played to date.

The Xbox Wire has a great year in review summary and what to expect in 2015, including a few upcoming console titles and the future of PC gaming on Windows 10. You can find that article here.

* According to NPD Group
 
They are so off the cuff with their pricing, like "whatever way the wind blows". I like it.

Because that's where the competition is most intense. The promotions MS has been dropping over the holiday has been helping MS gain some momentum. If X1 is going to catch up, US is where it will start. Having said that, the worldwide gap continues to grow but obviously noone wants to point that out. :)

I just pointed out that people are going to be upset with the results. I didn't single anyone or any group of gamers out. You went right after Xbox fans. I think you need to read through the posts again and think about it. You got really defensive over nothing.

When Xbox wins a month, the focus changes from NPD to Worldwide sales..... even though there is no official source for global sales. lol

I've haven't been here in a month except for the occasional skimming of threads.

Depending how lazy I am tonight, I may or may not bother going back to see what this Qbert/TD/PV bickering was about. But as a guesstimate, did it involve Qbert doing one or more of the following?

Qbert subtly trumpeting PC superiority and/or anti-MS posts?

It's water under the bridge. Best to let it go and focus on the coronation of the Xbox One in December. But yeah, it was Qbert's usual schtick of PC/PS4 rules the roost and playing the victim card over nothing. Jumping to conclusions with not much to go on other than emotion. You know me, i was just entertaining myself. No need to get offended.
