GCN already pulled out most of it's cards, I wonder what's gonna save it US vs Xbox for the next couple of years.

Also, Enter The Matrix's sales are amazing! Even though it's not that great of a game, I think it's exactly what movie based games should be like in the future. Both the story and the gameplay warranted a purchase...

I hate it when its in this format...for a second there I thought the matrix had sold 27 million copies for the PS2.

GBA p0wning is hardwar sales, as usual.

As usual? I think the PS2 and GBA are normally a lot closer... The reason GBA sales are so high is probably because of the release of the GBA SP... Which isn't an "As usual" kinda thing...

I thought even in the months before the GBA SP was released, it still beat out any console every month...it didn't smother the competition like it did this time, but I always thought it was usually a little higher...I could be wrong tho...

Looks like they're bailing out of a wreck to me.

Indeed.......... Do you by any chance know what that has to do with my reply to Jason's post?

By the way GBA sucks I bet SP is a helluva lot better, but I haaaaate the regular model's screen... I'm borrowing my friend (along with Castlevania: CotM, Mario Kart, and Advance Wars)... Just thought I'd say that

Actually, I was warning you about Damage Control. Obviously you didn't catch on. Oh well.

Oh, and..



It's funny and all if you try to make fun of me being an idiot, because I am, and I know I am, but using somebody else's image is no good, and especially when it's Cockles' image, and it's way past the expiration date--which was a month ago before E3.. In addition, to have it not even relate to the console we were talking about could have been planned to a degree, at least. What would have been right, and would have saved your ass, would be the PS2 baby:



Now what would have been an incredibly stupid move would be posting the Xbox baby. And I salute you to that at least for not posting that.



-5 Keep trying. What's funny on GA isn't necessarily.. understood by members of another forum.

Question

Dyne, hows about you post some GBA and PS2 worldwide sales numbers instead of saying that DH is bailing?

The Cube logo is there because it's the only one I could find relating to Nintendo

No no no, it was apparent he was trying to put down the GBA for being ahead of the PS2. And I know he owns a PS2. Using SP as an excuse is damage control.
