Pour out a 40 for Saab. :'(

They were dead soon after GM bought them and converted to using the GM platforms for their cars. They had a quirk that made them cool. Then comes GM and makes them a Malibu with a griffin emblem.

Someone should tell this guy that arcade motorcycle racers lose their charm without a big plastic bike to ride on.

Someone should tell that distinguished mentally-challenged fellow that the Tron Legacy lightcycles are the original Tron designs that they couldn't use because they couldn't figure out how to do an open lightcycle with the technology back then and that they aren't ripping off his precious Animu shit.

I'm pretty certain it's just the lack of the sales numbers leaking a day or two early which has everyone crying.  As far as I know, famitsu and enterbrain and something else are public, although its usually a week after the fact.

I think some (most) people didn't really understand what my comment to cvx was even about.  If snickers is outselling mars, and you say snickers is outselling mars...ok, if you want to waste your time reporting that it's your time, not mine.  But If snickers is outselling mars and every time you report that you underlay it with "lollolol Mars sucks, snickerz rulz" then you're just acting like a manbaby and I'm gonna call you out on it after enough time. 

Plus since when did doing someone a "favor" make you immune to being slighted?  If you did someone a favor by driving to the market to pickup some OJ and in the process you ran over a dozen innocent 3 year old babies, no one is going to be saying "well I don't think we should talk bad about this guy, he was doing us a favor by getting the OJ".

It's funny and yet awesomely embarrassing for all involved that people actually care how much a game they have no real vested interest in sells.

Of all the things to care about, nonsense such as game- and console sales or box office figures (for movie nerds) should be at the absolute bottom of the list. Unless, of course, you're getting a check...

I used to be really big into the Media Create and NPD sales thread. Then, one day, I realized that none of matters one single bit. It's stupid to care about numbers and sales so much.

These days, I'll check the monthly NPD thread in passing just to see what's going on and then promptly forget about it until next month or I might check Wikipedia to see how some game I really like sold.

I think that being a Nintendo fan means you naturally gravitate towards sales figures since you don't have much to play.  I used to be a hardcore ninthing and was fairly active in the sales threads.  Then I got a 360. :xbot

Yea when you have a 360 you have so much to play you don't care about sales threads. It's gotta suck to be a Wii or PS3 fan.

There is nothing wrong with detached, dispassionate sales talk. As I always say I follow sales talk the same way I follow sports statistics. It's something to analyze, and come to certain conclusions about and understand the market better.

The problem with GAF is that with everything you have a collection of fanboys who aren't really discussing sales but using sales talk as another outlet of fanboy wars
