I don't see why people are arguing in this thread for 55+ pages. Shipped numbers usually lead sales numbers, so it is almost inevitable that the sales numbers will follow with the same story. Saying "Not offically sold" is pointless.

Anyway hooray second place. Lol second place.

@CanyouDigit, a prediction is something you pull out of your ass, this is not a prediction. Sorry. Don't think this would be on the front of IGN, if this was just a mere prediction from someone that didn't know what they're talking about. Deal with it.

[QUOTE="Tessellation"][QUOTE="NineTailedGoku"]

I like how you think youre any better lmao. At least he comes up with good points here and there. You just try to put the attention elsewhere because you're a huge fanboy like many on these boards. Its no secret that I prefer Playstation, as long as they keep their current business model. I like Xbox as well but not as much, doesn't make me a fanboy. Looking at your sig however, its obvious you're far worse of a "fanboy" then the Cows you poke fun at to get the attention off yourself.

NineTailedGoku

Entertain me more with your tears :cool: lol at the long ass butthurt essay post :lol:

When unable to make a point, say butthurt, tears, and umad. Nice! You're making Lems look great, keep up the good work :cool:

its just easy to describe the basement dwelling cows..don't be mad bro :cool:

[QUOTE="CanYouDiglt"]I seriously can not believe this thread reached 1096 posts because of this prediction from a company. The worst part it is a bad prediction claiming the 6 year old PS3 crushes the one month sales record when consoles are on a decline and the PS3 this entire gen has never been the best selling console during the holidays but yet destroys all consoles in history for 1 month sales .NineTailedGoku

GTFO, its not a "prediction" Nice attempt at damage control though.

Fine then a wild crazy guess. It sure as heck is not real or official numbers.

A prediction is something they are predicting to happen. Their guess is the same as a Patcher guess and we know how often he is wrong. It is not real or official numbers in any shape. Also it is not a main story on IGN it is just a article written by a known Sony fanboy from IGN. If this was in fact true it would be on every game site there is which it is not.

I was always under the impression that "shipped" meant shipped to retailers. Although this would make sense I guess, since it is almost impossible to track how many are sold to customers.

[QUOTE="Tessellation"] mostly editing skateboarding videos.clyde46

You can do that on Windows PC. :|

And I can do it on a Mac. Problem?

Why spend all the money on a Mac for some editing software when you can do it on PC alongside many things such as gaming and a vast amount of software to use?

Basically, you can do EVERYTHING on a PC. Not a single thing missing.

There is so much wrong with that chart. When a company is so insanely wrong like that in the past why are they given any credit for their predictions now I will never understand. The chart was made in 2008 and they thought the 360 would never sell more then what the PS3 sold in 2009.

Ok, lets play it your way. Do you really think 360 will pull ahead considering 360 sells less overall? What do you think will happen come official numbers? You think this trend will change just because you hate the thought that PS3 surpassing 360? BTW, they're doing the same damn thing that NPD does. NPD has several store they don't even track but you willingly accept their numbers. You guys are hypocrites.:lol:

shipped to retailers who bought them. sales. :)


Alright I see then; thank you for clearing that up for me.
That drives it even further. After reading carefully, the said shipped numbers are not a forecast, but a basis for further forecast.

"The report also highlights that just this past December, Sony's PS3 managed to surpass the number of Xbox 360s shipped worldwide (about 77 million vs. 76 million), despite the PS3 launching a year later."

Collected data on past phenomena are not predictions or forecasts. The rest of the report is a forecast on how they will sell in the future - specifically mentioing the Wii U which they predict will sell 50 million by 2016. Did anyone actually read this or did they just quote-mine it?
There is no reason for anyone to argue here. Why are people so angry at this?

LOL @ Lems trying to pass this off as a mere "prediction" or "forecast" This is the same people that revel in NPD numbers. Just sad guys, God forbid your precious 360 gets outsold smh.

lol, why do sales mean so much to you that you need to start telling yourself that predictions are better than official numbers? you sure take sales way too seriously.

You mean the official numbers that put the PS3 ahead of the 360 days before the launch of the Wii U?

You understand where NPD gets their numbers from right? Do you have a link to where this source gets it from?

Gotta love it.

Ok, lets play it your way. Do you really think 360 will pull ahead considering 360 sells less overall? What do you think will happen come official numbers? You think this trend will change just because you hate the thought that PS3 surpassing 360? BTW, they're doing the same damn thing that NPD does. NPD has several store they don't even track but you willingly accept their numbers. You guys are hypocrites.:lol:

you aren't going to answer my question, are you?
