[QUOTE="insanejedi"][QUOTE="nintendo-4life"]

have you even read what i said? :|

and the statistics are outdated BTW.

nintendo-4life

Tell me where you got 60%, tell me where you got 35%.

At least I have a statistic.

Even if 60% of 360 owners only have live you also did not include the possibility that people not on live could still be playing GTA 4.

All your assumtions have zero basis, zero facts, zero references, therefore your rebuttal is weaker than graphite.

It's called logical assumptions. I've read somewhere (i think TGS) that around 60% of 360 owners own XBL.

PS. you have yet to give me cold hard numbers, just old, outdated and useless statistics and a leaderboard with no indication. you are just as baseless as i am... hell at least i'm making logical assumptions :|

ok ok listen to settle the score let's start over again, bring up the charts for GTA4's sales, the amount of XBL owners and the numbers to the leaderboard you posted. That is definitely a start.

*Back from school and sleep*

You have no cold hard numbers, and no basis for anything. I have a base, my source is Major Nelson who keeps track of users playing games. GTA is ranked 3rd off of the LATEST statistic. The nintendo survay was only 2 months ago. two whole months! Thats not 18 years, thats two months. It's not a very long time from now.

And the number of people who may or may not have xbox live is irrelevent information to the context of our arguement as GTA can be played offline. from "logical assumtions" it would infact increase the number of people playing GTA as GTA is a mostly single player focused game.

I cannot get the complete GTA 4 sales as I do not have access to NDP data of anything below top 10. sorry. Major Nelson also does not disclose the number of players playing GTA. All we know for FACT is that GTA is the 3rd most played game on xbox live. and my first response was "some people are certainly playing it for it to be the third most played game on XBL."

Argue that qoute and say that I am wrong. I dare you.

zelda tp on gamecube and wii resident evil4 on gamecube and the wii okami ps2 and wii wow impressive and i never said i was happy about TEH SALES and 3rd party support is essential to me .ogvampire

so there arent any games that are on ps3 AND ps2? Mercenaries 2? Guitar Hero 3? Rock band? are you still sure about that?

3rd party support is essential to you? of course it is, there is no way MS can survive with just 1st party...unlike Nintendo. thats their strengths

so continu to play resident evil4 and i will play resident evil 5 and if im tired of mario games im screw so no the wii is realy a letdown to me and the e3 08 was a big dissapointment .

Wii games dont appeal to you, but they do to me...there's nothing wrong with that.

Wii Fit reminds me of those infomercials with the 'SUPER AWESOME AB TONER' that claims to do good but doesnt really help you anymore than doing a normal sit up.

Yes, but Wii-Fit comes with motivation. Sort of like how those "Cadbury Thins" are really selling packaged will-power.

Why do people automatically hate Wii Fit because it is a casual game? IT HAS AN 80% AVERAGE ON GAMERANKINGS AND SCORED AN 8 ON IGN. Wii Fit isn't a bad game at all.

They hate it because it's different, and it scares them. They fear that more games will be like it, while missing the true entertainment inherent within, and not realizing why too many games of this type would not last.

[QUOTE="VendettaRed07"]I thought we all already knew that this game would shatter sales records.ogvampire

are you talking about GTA4 or Wiifit?

wiifit


i dont think it has shattered any sales records

its constantly sold out, ive never seen it once in stores, and online you cant even get one used for 90$. Its going to consistantly sell out for ages just like the wii has been doing, it will probably be one of the highest/fastest selling games this gen.

You know what's interesting. One of the games on Wii Fit is pretty cool. The downhill slalom. You put the Wii Balance Board perpendicular to your TV so that you're on it like a skateboard. This is actually pretty intuitive and fun. I'm hoping they add more games for the Wii Balance board. There could be some major gameplay elements that come out of it.

To loosely quote Larry the Cable Guy: "Where are they when I go in the gym? I go in there, there's just Two-Ton Teen on the floor mat there, looking at me like I'm a Little Debbie oatmeal cookie."
