And you'll have a receipt from a registered charity *how*? ;)
1.3 millions already? That's huge. It took closer to 2 years for XBL to hit 1M subscribers. Granted, with all things considered it's not a 1:1 comparison, but it's still interesting.
Whoever disagreed with me is in denial. Sorry, but you really need to re-read the XBL numbers announcements that were made a few weeks ago. Google is your friend.
The quoted 6 Million XBL users are since the service's inception, and includes all Xbox subscribers as well. Silver, Gold, Xbox, 360, etc... all inclusive.

They're free!
+1 bub to you because you said "biased towards" instead of using the usual fanboy grammar, "you are bias". ;)
You're quite obsessive, aren't you? What's worse, spending a lot of time on a site, or spending a lot of time on a site trying to prove someone is spending a lot of time on a site?
Oi. Did your broken record player finally break down completely?
I'm not sure, but I think there's a good chance mackerel will be involved.
"great another moron analyst makes a dumb statement and the fanboys come a running. lets the say ps3 does reach 8million next year does this guy really think there won't be 1 360 sold between now and then?"

Great: another moronic comment by someone who can't read. (Sorry bud, it's just that you left the door wiiide open. ;)
"FLAMED!" Get it? GET IT? Dragons! Flamed! Ha!
(Oh boy. Friday's getting to me. Time to leave work. ;)
"Sonys not going to magiclly keep MS from making new games after this year than sell close to 10 million $600 consoles while MS Magiclly sells Zero consoles; all in one years time. lol"

Yet another person who can't read. Give it another shot. He didn't say anything about there being more PS3s than 360s, just that there should be 8-10M PS3s at this point next year.
What the hell did you just say? Or was that a random-text Spam email?
You (and a lot of others) didn't read the article correctly. He only said he expected the PS3 numbers to be 8-10M or so by this point next year. He didn't say the PS3 was going to outsell the 360, he was just using the 360's 8M *current* number as a reference point.
We need more hate in these comments. Where is everyone? ;)
(EDIT: Cheers, Raist!)
Oh...my...f*ck.
"Water and Zardoz and Rhino heads, Oh My."
Agreed, it's all about the gameplay at this stage. It's too early at this point to judge it based on graphics. (Fortunately, because it's not that impressive just yet.) The final product should be mighty fine. There's no way they'd tilt their visual hand just yet.
Guaranteed to be the biggest seller to date on the 360. I wonder how Unreal will compare to it in terms of sales.
You probably won't see better graphics than Gears in an FPS anytime soon. Cutting down the number of on-screen characters and sticking to a kind-of-on-the-rails type of third-person mode was how they could afford the rich details. A go-anywhere, dozens-of-enemies FPS would eat too much power. Gears is a wonderful balancing act.
Granted, if anyone can match the wonder of Gear it should be Bungie, especially with all the extra development time. I would love to see it surpa...
Not that you're wrong, but the 6M XBL subscribers number includes original XBOX subscribers too. You can't really use that to quantify any 360 numbers.
Suggestion: Paragraphs.
Thanks, Deep. Glad to see there was at least one still available. ;)
