  1. 2nd best selling in the USA. The global picture is a bit different http://www.vgchartz.com/weekly/41756/Global/ Also people who have 360s tend to be americans and for the most part younger so I would say it's young people jumping on the CoD bandwagon. If you look at those global sales number both the X360 and PS3 have sold close to 8M copies, however I usually can find about 40K people in the playlist. I also noticed that gamestop and some other stores around here (in Canada) are bundling Ghost with the purchase of a console so I wonder if that could part of it.
  2. The game was too repetitive for me. Raid a camp and kill everything. Use the bow or silenced sniper and don't be seen. Kill animals and craft you stuff Climb towers and enable the radar Repeat as necessary I also didn't like the supernatural boss fights much either. I thought those were just stupid I found the co-op game fun. Unfortunately there weren't many people playing it. The multiplayer didn't work much which was unfortunate. They had some cool maps.
  3. He might be. One of the bad guys in Far Cry 3 (Buck I think), was a gay rapist.
  4. I don't know what patents those could be. However Xerox did try to sue apple and they lost. Apple had given them 1M in stock to be allowed to visit their facilities and use mutually agreed technology. Apple has a $500B market cap with $160B in the bank. IBM has a $180B market cap. I don't think they want to take a fight to someone who can almost buy them out cash. Apple can outlast IBM in any legal fight. I've dealt with Nokia on a professional level. Based on the decisions I have seen them make, it does not surprise me that they are in the situation they are in.
  5. That would probably be wrong. Steve Jobs went to the Xerox Palo Alto R&D facility and was memorized by the Mouse and Windows. Both were invented by Xerox who said they had no need for it since the could not use it on their copiers. He was told he could use it. Meanwhile MS got a contract from IBM to develop an operating system for their PC. This happen after talks with DEC failed. DEC had the CP/M operating system which worked on 8080 and 8086 (cpu used in the first PCs). MS emulated many of the functions from CP/M and some of them still remain today. Apple saw a lot of success with their windows stuff and people were liking it, so then MS decided to copy Apple. Like I said, Gates wasn't original but at least he could run and market a business. The current management can't even do that. Xbox isn't exactly new either. The were loads of gaming consoles before they decided they would have one. A lot of what we do see today in computers however was technology that Xerox chose not to deploy because they didn't want to hurt their copier business. Who ever made that choice is probably one of the guys running MS They wouldn't be the first knuckle heads from a large company to do something like that only to regret it later.
  6. I agree with what you said but MS' problems are even bigger than that. The need a complete overall and the board of directors demanded it, however now everyone is playing a conservative game to try to save their jobs instead of taking risk and have a remote chance to shine - Windows 8 was a dud that no one wanted. They had to back track on that product a lot and introduce 8.1. I work for a $3B company and half of our staff is Software developers. We refuse to support Win 8. We had also refuse to support Vista - MS went into the tablet market and produced a dance video. Talk about a product that crashed and burned. No one buys or want that product. That was just jumping onto the Apple and Samsung band wagon. It didn't work for RIM either. - MS did a mobile operating system and went into the smart phone business. Another disaster. Their market share is less than 2%. Google and apple continue to eat their lunch. Even RIM as more market share as they are headed towards bankruptcy. Jumping on the band wagon again however. - MS decided they would do a retail store similar the Apple store. It's got to be pretty embarrassing to have those store with not customers in them at all. Jumped on the band wagon their too. That a classic example of a large company with inertia that just doesn't know how to change direction in order to make itself successful again. Gates wasn't particularly creative but he knew how to successfully run a business. It doesn't seem like MS has that level of talent. Right now they just seem to copy some of their or their competitors old ideas which is a disaster once someone comes around with something innovative.
  7. We've hear you say " we all want a PS4" and we are tired of getting our asses kicked every time new sales figures come out
  8. When I played this game I kind of liked it. It was called Crisis 3 at the time, but it still pretty good
  9. Ghost is 2,164,383 vs BF4 1,771,668 on the PS4 I don't have pro so I cannot see the XBONE numbers. The market share for BF4 is however much better than usual vs CoD On VGchartz http://www.vgchartz.com/weekly/41756/Global/
  10. Where are you getting your stats? I think what they are saying is Ghost is the best selling game on next gen and they combine both the XBONE and the PS4. Infamous sold a total of 1,837,473 copies total Titanfall sold at total of 1,633,123 copies total Ghost sold a total of 2,164,283 copies total of the PS4 according to VGCharts http://www.vgchartz.com/weekly/41756/Global/%C2'> I don't pay for pro so I don't know what it is for the XBONE but if you combine the two I wouldn't be surprised if it had the highest number of sales "For the Next Generation Consoles". It is marketing and Activition is doing what it can to put a spin on the relatively mediocre sales for their main franchises to their share holders. If you look at their stock reports WoW and CoD sales a down (a lot, but not as bad as forcasted) so they want to positive spin on things. The results are not surprising to me. People who rushed to buy the consoles are the hard core gamers and if you look here the vast majority of people playing on next gen are all playing BF4 or Cod.
  11. Well at least they aren't pulling a BF4 and delivering something that doesn't work for a given platform
  12. I'd say the game is a hell of a lot better Ghost and some other games I've played. Even better than BF4 in terms of quality of the code. I don't know how many people are buying platinum to keep it afloat, but I hope people take to it
  13. I'm still on the first planet and killed the first boss. I am using MAG Finding the objectives on the map still seems to be the hardest part. Just have to remember to use the blade and open up some paths to get where I have to go.
  14. A lot of people have the Rhino because you can purchase it in a bundle with platinum. It is essentially pay to win. The PSN+ people do get a free starter pack if you were not aware. It's 50000 credits and some platinum.
  15. I've tried it on the first 4 missions It has some similarities. The Warframes have 4 powers that you can use. They don't quite seem to scale like ME3 does. I haven't gotten very far with the my Frame yet. Instead of waves you have missions to do. I think there is something the 250 of them and the unlock as you increase your level. The maps for a mission are pretty huge. The missions so far are pretty easy. Finding the objective and your way around seems to be the hardest part I'm finding things pretty confusing, There is little to no explanation for this game. The game was a port from the PC so some of the controls are a bit confusing. I haven't gotten to the crafting of upgrade yet. It's actually not bad. Like I said a little too easy at the moment but that is OK, I am sure it gets harder. It's actually pretty good quality once in a lobby. I don't believe you have a PS4. It's available PS4 or PC.

  16. http://www.ottawacitizen.com/news/Florida+smothered+crying+toddler+could+play+Xbox+games+watch/9752143/story.html We should get to smother the idiot
  17. since you run so much and need them, is that something you can get custom made? Could they make custom inserts to better fit your foot?
  18. I don't think there are any rented servers on console for BF4 yet. If there are, I have not seen them. I have encountered what you describe on the PS3 for BF3 however. Pay to win servers were rather common. Even you get killed by the admin just because you are in a good spot and on a streak. I know that you can save favorite servers. I suppose you could save those anytime there is a fair game in order to avoid the cheats.
  19. "Faced Time" !?! I guess you have to buy him dinner first
  20. Actually they do because some perfectly able person are occupying the disabled cube due to delusion of "grandeur" about their penis when they need to go for a piss/shit
  21. Why? Do they know where the men's room is?
  22. But I guess what you guys are saying is that you need the sniper riffle ribbon and the 5 kills from the tower in the same round. Just like the F2000 you need the assists and the kills in the same round. Correct?
  23. Unplayable. Got the PS4 at the same time the DLC came out. Not happy with it at all
  24. Eagles nest challenge. Do you have to get the sniper riffle in a specific way? Can't seem to get credit for it. I even got 3 ribbon in a round on Metro (which does not have the towers) and I haven't got that part of the assigment done. Do you have to get both the ribbon and the 5 kills in a round for it to work? thanks
  25. So how are you suppose to spot in hardcore. Even with the PLD I seems that spotting does not work. I can tag vehicles but forget about infantry.
