Nice Lies Microsoft

Post by HotDog-Cart »

During E3 today right after the Fallout 3 announcement, Microsoft lied and said that "They Outsold the Wii and Ps3 COMBINED."

Yea, that's some BS there. Nice lies, Microsoft.

See that is taken out of context. He didn't mean to say that more 360s were sold than Wiis and PS3s, rather he was saying that Microsoft sold more 360s than Sony and Nintendo combined (because Sony and Nintendo sold 0 360s). :lol:

Perhaps he just meant "this quarter".

Are they counting all the ones that are replacements :lol:

No lies. The comment was related to software sales.

This is a classic case of a quote being taken out of context.

Get your facts straight next time HDC. The fact is the Xbox360 has a higher attach rate than either of the other consoles, meaning on average each person owning the console has more games than the average PS3 or Wii owner. It just means there's more good games out for the 360; ok, well not really, since that's a matter of opinion. But the popular opinion seems to be that the 360 has a lot of games worth buying.

Well it was hard to hear the first time. So shush. :3

Yet, don't you guys think the new menu/interface for the 360 looks...horrid?

Also, I'm not a PS3 fanboy. I own all 3 systems. Its just, I think Sony really needed an exclusive like FF13.

Microsoft's right, deal with it :P . Their console just has more quality games than Sony and Nintendo.
