It hilarious to see how sales topics change course into a completely different subject. :PHeil68
Well 360 is beating PS3 in sales, games and exclusives so descent into insane conspiracy theories is the only thing left. When reality says the PS3 is dead last, and you worship PS3, then reality must be wrong!!!

When did this thread turn into a conspracy theory thread?Jeff was fired because of an inexperience review/ad team on GS that couldn't handle the pressures of publishers withdrawing ad money from the site.Jeff's firing happened not just because of one review, but multiple reviews posted by reviewers on GS review team.And that GS app has nothing to do with Fable the Journey getting an 8.0 because the app has the same use as the IGN app on XBL.People can use it as an easy way to get their gaming news on GS.And that xbl subscription deal involving the app is just a little incentive to get the app.Now please stop acting like idiots cows because it's embrassing for your faction.

I wish I lived in your world. We are all fools if we don't believe for one second that reviews are bought and paid for all the time. It's the nature of the beast we call society and there's way too much money to be lost by having poor reviews for a game that cost millions to produce. Granted, it's not everyone who does this but I'm willing to bet it has become entirely commonplace with most devs/publishers.

I know reviewers may be bought but using reasons like an app for the xbox360 are not real reasons.:lol:

Correct. It's even written in the forum guide.

My apologies if I mis-construed something. I know nothing about this app you speak of. I just know reviews are often bought and paid for. It's laughable people use reviews as ownage against other people especially when those reviews may have been paid for. No company is going to risk millions in losses when they can cut a 10k check and make sure their game is reviewed well. Certain companies moreso than others obviously but the entire world works this way, it's foolishness to believe the multi-billion dollar video game industry doesn't follow the same trend.

Only an Idiot would use VGchartz to prove that the PS3 outsold the 360 this year! Oh I forgot PS3 and MS haters are! :lol:

BS the PS3 didn't out sell the 360 by that large margin.
