Fair enough sir, and so I will continue to disagree :P
This topic is locked from further discussion.
So many butthurt lem tears in this thread. Lems are really taking this last place thing hard.
Last place after less than 2 months and a competition of 2, lol. Cows are rrrreeeeaaaacccchhhhiiiinnnngggg these days :) the gen has just started.
You should expect it to stay that way until Xbone passes Wii U; after Japan, the gap will widen much more than 1.2 mil. You don't have to be a fanboy to know this.

You also don't have to be a fanboy to know the console wars is a long game as evidenced by the PS3 struggling first 3 years before hitting that sweet spot price wise and producing compelling software. MS will find a way to lower the price and will launch worldwide this year, and just like last gen a great number of people outside the US will jump in cause the average fan plays what they want and aren't blinded by online gaming forums, lol. All in all people wondered if Sony could gain a foothold in the US again, and they did. People now wonder if MS can gain a foothold in the rest of the world outside of Japan. They will as soon as its available everywhere, all features are active, and their best games are launched. Sony looks to lead early on, but I am not convinced they will win this gen. But even if they do, shrugs, lol. MS provides me with what I like best so that's what I support. But anyone with a crystal ball not even 2 months since the gen began predicting that worldwide the company projected to be near bankruptcy in 2 years will slaughter (i know you didn't say that but other have) the company worth 200 billion is living in fantasy land. The gap will widen yes as Japan will never recognize MS, but never so insurmountable ala the Xbox/PS2 days.
How many people in here actually own one or both of the new consoles or have played the games you are arguing over? This thread seems to be a bunch of people expressing opinions on games they haven't played.

The rules say, "This does not, in any way, mean that you aren't allowed totalk about metacritic or use metacritic as evidence of how good or bad a game is. The meta-game isn't here to stifle discussion. But for the purposes of determining the definitive score of a game, for purely meta-game purposes.
GS scores only matter to determine if a game is is flop, its for Metagame pursposes only. nowhere does it say were not allowed to use Metacritic to say how good a game is.
I am not talking about the meta game. If you are going to talk about "what console has the best library", or bash a game, then GS scores are all that count.
Look, this is my 2nd account. I don't use my "dabear" account anymore. But, I have been in SW since it was called "Console Wars" (2002, I think). And, like back then with gamerrankings.com, MetaCritic doesn't mean a damn thing.
You want to talk about MetaCritic scores? Go in their boards.
Again, where are these System Wars rules? (Source or link to that forum board that has the rules listed please). I have looked within this site and cant find them
The MODs temporarily removed the sticky when the site refresh was done. They have not put it back yet. You never saw the sticky for the "rules" and for the first time posters?
Where do you think the "you must be at level 10 to create a thread" points came from?
Before the redesign they had bullet point rules on the top of each type of forum ( this is probably what most people looked at when trying to follow that level 10 rule IMO). And your telling people to follow rules that no longer exist since the redesign? (What do you mean temporarily? I havent seen those rules since the redesign and this site has been redesigned for what close to 6 months or so? Dont see how you can tell people to follow rules, when they are not present..... (mind you gamespot has changed many things with the redesign like the rating system, getting rid of level 10 posting rule, etc.. so dont see any meaning in saying "This has it always has been" type of explanation, just in case you were thinking of replying with that)
EDIT:
I;m referring to the whole only gamespot scores matter fyi....
Best thread 2014. To summarize:
Lems before Sony released their numbers: Victory! Xbox has won! 1st place until Sony says otherwise!
Lems after Sony released their numbers: But $100 more! But 13 regions! But price cut! But Titanfail! But no 3:1! But just wait! But Forza!
Running out of straws to grasp lems. Enjoy that last place, weaker hardware, more expensive, and fewer games. Keep this thread going.
Blackace meltdown has been nothing but epic..hahaha
And TC backpedaling sweet as candy..hahaha
Those unedited post showing how slow you are is back pedaling?
Tormentos you used to not be restarted what happened? What do you only exist here to spam?

exactly, tormentos has spent MONTHS waffling shite about the PS4 and xbox one, is still going strong and doesn't own either! what a twonk!
Yep i don't the xbox one and PS4 don't have the games now,even that the PS4 has more games and higher rated to,unlike you i didn't want to buy the unit on a promise,when Infamous SS hit i may get a PS4,the xbox one probably never,it doesn't have the strength the 360 use to have,like powerful and cheap,but have the xbox 360 weakness like pay for everything and endless micro transaction,i was a 360 owner since day 1 and PS3 as well,this gen is different.
At least i don't pretend that crappy games like Ryse are enjoyable.
So many butthurt lem tears in this thread. Lems are really taking this last place thing hard.
Last place after less than 2 months and a competition of 2, lol. Cows are rrrreeeeaaaacccchhhhiiiinnnngggg these days :) the gen has just started.
I said the same thing in another thread, and the cows attacked me like sharks in chum. Most, like I_Can_Haz, already declared this gen over - with the PS4 the clear winner.
I'd like to vacation in his mind.

Moar lem tears!
The gap is only gonna widen next month when PS4 launches in Japan. Keep the butthurt tears flowing.
Might as well sticky this thread, nearing 1000 posts...damn. will go down in the history of backfires, a self owning thread so incredible, it will be passed down to the next generations of gamespot members, in the future, until it becomes a urban legend, and then someone bumps it.
