No console has EVER overcome a 7 million console deficit to over come the console leader, End of Threadswanlee

1. You can't judge every future event by the past.

2. The Wii is easily going to surpass the 360 and started ith the same deficit.

[QUOTE="Saturos3091"]Katamari probably would've worked better on the Wii anyway. Too bad Sony loses another exclusive.MronoC
I like the wii, but not every unique innovative game would automatically be better on it. The game is centered around the use of two analog sticks, simultaneously. It might be possible to adapt the game to the wii controller, but it wouldbe difficult to get the same amount of intuitiveness.

Also, assuming the game would only use tilt, the sixaxis could do the same exact motion controls.

PS3 The Darkness = 7.7

360 The Darkness = 8.5

PS3 The Bigs = 8.0

360 The Bigs = 8.3

I don't get it, same game, different scores. Should we expect the 360 will always have the better version of multiplats this gen? This time around you can't use that "oh its just a lazy dev's poor port" becausethey say The Darkness was developed for the 360 and the PS3 at the same time, but what happened, whats going on!?! I'm not really shock but it really just makes me wonder. The 360 is really superior over the PS3 when it comes to multiplats huh.

ReverseCycology

Darkness got a 7.8 from IGN. The score you have is from the UK branch.

also, the reviews never mentioned any of the content in the PS3 version.

[QUOTE="Gamer46"]The Xbox360 was the lead platform and Starbreeze has more experienceworking with the Xbox brand, this isn't really surprising. When DMC 4 comes out, the shoe will be on the other foot.CR00K

We should be able to say the same for Haze as well when it comes out.

As for The Darkness, I have the PS3 version. It looks great and it's only slowed down twice through the whole thing and I've been playing for 5+ hours. BIG DEAL! Cows are not owned at all. Nothing to cry about.

How are the videos?

[QUOTE="nnavidson"]Out of 13 million units sold, it's likely that one person has gone through 11 units using 30 percent as basis alone.I do question this story though because you think Microsoft would go out of there way to gaurantee they send a working unit by the 5th attempt which would change the odds.Vandalvideo
Likely means it has a good chance of it happening. The odds are against that. Each and every individual has the same probability of it hapening to them. I know I'm barking over semantics and nto the general idea, but it is unlikely to happen.

Your odds of winning the lottery are less likely than having 11 faulty 360s and yet the jackpot is reached occasionally.

[QUOTE="nnavidson"]I've already said it's not likely to happen to you.My point was it was likely that it would happen to someone , therefore people posting complaints about this guy committing fraud are unwarranted.That's assuming a 30 percent failure rate which we may never know for sure.Vandalvideo
Theres a small chance that it could possibly happen to someone. That doesn't mean its likely to happen to someone. That someone has a 9 million to five chance of it happening. That means its incredibly unlikely. Improbable.

When 30 percent was multiplied out it turned out to be 5 in 10 million.

I'm not sure what the sales are but I assume they're closer to 13 million and 1 person has claimed this has happened.

Out of 13 million units sold, it's likely that one person has gone through 11 units using 30 percent as basis alone.

[QUOTE="Vandalvideo"][QUOTE="nnavidson"]It's improbable that it would happen to you. It's probable that if you sell 10 million systems it will happen to 5 people.Vandalvideo

You're confusing semantics here. Its "POSSIBLE" that it could happen to five people. However, the chances of it actually happening is incredibly improbable. There is nothing wrong with my semantics. It is entirely possible that it could happen, but would it actually happen? Chances are it wouldn't.

5 out of 10 million means that if out of 10 million attempts you should have success 5 times.

It's just like the probability of flipping a coin and getting heads should happen once for every two attempts. It's the mathmatical odds,

Exactly, and the mathmatical odds support that its probable that you're not going to have it happen to you. Its improbable that it would. Improbable, not likely to happen. It is NOT likely to happen.

I've already said it's not likely to happen to you.

My point was it was likely that it would happen to someone , therefore people posting complaints about this guy committing fraud are unwarranted.

That's assuming a 30 percent failure rate which we may never know for sure.

[QUOTE="Vandalvideo"][QUOTE="SuperVegeta518"]The chance os this happening are deffinately over 1 in 10,000,000.Vandalvideo

Look at it another way. The chances of it happening is 9,999,995 to 5. Thats what we would call a HORRIBLE CHANCE. If you have a nine million, nine hundred and ninty nine thousand, nine hundred and nintey five to five chance of something happening , chances are its not going to happen.

Chances are you're not going to be that guy, but probability also says there should be four other guys who had this problem at 30 percent failure rates.

But its improbable that it would happen. "Improbable" :Unlikely to happen. Its not likely to happen.

It's improbable that it would happen to you. It's probable that if you sell 10 million systems it will happen to 5 people.
