Do you really think it's FUD on his part, or just sillyness? N'Gai ran with it, and he's not one to fall for such shenanigans involving MS and Sony.

What a turd of a joke.
Ozy makes a bet for a $50 steak dinner and gets to introduce a FUD proposition meant to get folks to either consider Sony ass-stupid for something or alternatively think they shouldn't buy a PS3 now because of a potential price drop.
Somehow, to me it seems that Microsoft comes out a billion points ahead in this game if this gets any play on GameTab, NeoGAF, EvilAvatar, IGN, Gamespot, 1up, Level up, and the like.
Hell, he could have offered to buy N'Gai a car and it would still be worth doing.
Jeez.

Um, he's the Xbox director of technical strategy, try to keep up.f_elz said:think it should be xbox blogger makes fud bet with Ngai.
the current title makes it seem like the head of MSFT made a bet or something.

No, I get the dinner. Gotham's rocks.Crow-kun said:So if the ps3 does drop to 400 dollars and still keeps all the stuff in there does N'Gai still get the dinner?

Cause well...this current setup is a bit of a drag. It would take heaven and earth being smashed between two oreo cookies for Lost Odyssey to sell over a million in Japan. This tag has gotten a bit dull because of this.
That's the unwritten rule of forum posting, if you are going to be all gung ho about something like this you bet something.ooooh, not smart
Just to be clear, i am not betting on either side.RIP devilscallmedad 2006-2007

How many ban bets do you want to line up, man? :lolPepsimanVsJoe said:Speaking of which "channels" do I have to go through to get my account put on the line? For next month's NPDs I'm willing to take a one month ban if the PS3 sells less than 200,000 units.

Umm, i never did. I was asking Mr.sonycowboy to put his account on the line because he's so sure about MS's FUD marketing tactics.then why mention a bet?
PepsimanVsJoe said:Honestly I don't know. What did Sony do last month? 98k? Guess I gotta believe.
Usually when a bet occurs two or more parties all wager something, not just one...devilscallmedad said:Umm, i never did. I was asking Mr.sonycowboy to put his account on the line because he's so sure about MS's FUD marketing tactics.
AltogetherAndrews said:So you're basically betting that Sony will beat its own estimates?
Karma Kramer said:Wait so to be clear..
Pepsi = Under 200k He gets banned
Oddy = Over 200k He gets banned
Peps = banned if PS3 doesnt sell over 200kKarma Kramer said:Wait so to be clear..
Pepsi = Over 200k
Oddy = Over 200k...
?
wait what?
DemonSwordsman said:This is just a pathetic attempt at FUD. so that people dont buy the PS3 now.
captive said:Peps = banned if PS3 doesnt sell over 200k
Oddy = banned if PS3 DOES sell over 200k
Either way we get bannage!
Yikes, I didn't realize this was the case. I'd miscalcuated yesterday. That rate won't be sustained so...yeah. Poor Pepsi.Sharp said:Actually even if the 135% increase figure keeps up for the entire month Sony still won't be over 200k so uh
Good luck Pepsi.
