Greenberg acting like a Blowhard again....

http://www.n4g.com/industrynews/News-146190.aspx

I am truely amazed at the Ignorance of this Blowhard. Pretty much to sum it up hes Trumpiting the hardware sales for the APRIL NPD, which was only a 800 unit Difference compared to PS3, which is really nothing to boast. Hes also acting like the 360 version of GTA is selling WAAAAAAAY more tahn PS3, when its actually isnt really. its more like a 3 to 4 than a 2 to 1. Seriously, his smugness is to be admired.

He gets paid to present a positive outlook for his company. He would probably get fired if he said something like "Whoa, that was close I'm worried that PS3 might ousell us." That would make his company and it's console look weak. When your in a business like this you don't want to look weak.

So why don't you tell me what you would have said had this been you making the statement.

you know whats funny? he is speaking the truthmingo123

If you truely think PS3 is getting "Squeezed" out of the console war, your Baked. IF anything the Wii is queeaing everyone else out.

u know, he is speaking the truth......

why do cows like to think:

truth they cant deal with = fanboyish claim

How is he speaking teh Truth? Hes saying that PS3 is getting Squeezed from the Console war, which is the exact opposite of whats happening. a 800 unit difference does not a being Squeezed from the war make.

Compare Sony from last gen and how it is now.

Compare PS2 sales to Xbox sales to PS3 sales to 360. Lets not get into how Nintendo is dominating both.

Sony is so getting squezzed and u all ready know it. just gotta deal with it.

the lemming fanboy award goes to mingo123

The PS3 is getting "squeezed out"? The same machine that BEAT the 360 last year despite having "no games", a $600 dollar price tag for much of the year and not even launching in it's strongest region until March? This Greenburg guy just.......doesn't seem to have a clue.

I'm getting sick of this potato-headed moron running his mouth off. Kaz Hirai should kick him in the face.

So, either 8 out of every 10 XBox owners have moved to the 360, or there are a lot of new gamers and PS2 converts to MS's console.

You can re-buff with what ever you want, but those numbers don't lie.

The topic title made me laugh :P

But, yeah, he's a PR, it's his job to say stuff like that.

did you forget sony and the cow brigade did the same exact thing last january? over 269,000 units. at least with greenberg, the number is closer to 1 million. hypocrite

you fail.

thread failed.

this is for you:

:lol: this guy proves to be more and more mature and threatened at the same time that the "competitor" might stomp on his favorite toy..

seriously, this guy should rather be a kid and play his 360 instead of hating on the other...

the more he bashes the more his reputation sinks

I like my ps3, and hope Sony can bounce back. But GTA 4 aside, if you can not tell that Sony has lost its grip and is still floundering through this generation you have blinders on.

What's wrong with you? This isn't about maturity it's about business.

Imagine if GTA was still a timed exclusive for Sony. Or if games like DMC were not multi-plat on the 360 as well. Games that used to be all about the playstation are now on the 360 as well, and a lot of ps3 exclusives are in direct response to the 360.

I mean Haze? Killzone 2? Resistance 2? A lot of FPS games coming out to try and lure away the 360 crowd.

Personally, I'm not a fan, but I do love how he's pissing off the cows. I think it's brilliant.heretrix

Why is that brilliant? It doesn't make me want an X360. Infact quite the opposite.

You made two points. I fail to see either of them. Here's his answer to the first one. (Bold is the questioner)

It was quite close though. The difference was 900 or 1,000 units.

Very close last month, but it's still good to be the one on top.

You'll take it.

Yeah, why not? [Laughs] I'm sure they would if it was them. Isn't that how this works? It's like we're all battling for who's the top console in a month where nobody's really buying consoles.

But games are really what this business is built on ... and Xbox 360 continues to be the platform where people buy games. Xbox 360 sold more third party games at retail than the Wii and PS3 combined. We see that month in, month out.

While the Wii had a great month for hardware, and Mario Kart did well, the problem is that if you're a major third-party publisher, you're not making any money on that platform...

I fail to see how the foregoing is acting like a blowhard.

-----

Point 2: The NPD numbers for GTAIV were 360 1.85 Million vs PS3 1.0 Million.

How is that not close to 2:1?

-----

Me thinks your thread is epic fail. And if people actually read the interview it is pretty laidback and forthright.

why does aaron greenberg turn the cows all snappy and petulant...? :PcrunchUK

How does Kaz Hirai get all the lemmings' collective panties in twists? The wanders or corporate PR my friend, that's how...........
