I will oversee this bet and will guarantee that if someone welshes they will:

Be permed from GAF
Be banned for life from all Madden leagues and MaddenGAF experiences
He wants to include a heavy Sony region because he is not confident they can win NA. There is no bet.

I used this opportunity to change my bundle from battlefield to watch dogs. i dont know why i chose the battlefield one in the first place.

That's the bundle I selected from the get go. I'm getting BF4 on the PC anyway.

I don't know if I'm going to the Nats game tonight anymore so if I'm around I'll definitely be down to play some D2 or DOTA 2.

NA and Europe gamers basically play the same games. Why wouldn't we include both regions? I understand booting Japan because that is unfair. It's only 60 dollars, Ferny!

I'm getting the Killzone one just because I was getting the game anyways and you get $10 off a year of plus... that will put me to the end of 2015.

Of course I'm getting Battlefield also, but whatever.

Back in the PS4 bandwagon, thought you were skipping launch? We are Sony bros once more. :D

Which cheats and exploits are people running these days to keep their Call of Duty e-peen erect?

quickscope trickshots for YouTube videos

I entertained somebody a few days ago who was kicked out of a clan because his quickscope kill cam shot was 'staged'. Now he wanted to improve his rep before 'signing' with another 'clan'. He said no YouTube 'editors' (lol) would work with him because of this etc

It was amusing and pathetic at the same time

The irony of Ferny backing out is he only wants to make the bet for the current MS heavy region.

But as we've seen in the past previous gen success can have zero bearing on next gen. PS2 was way more popular than 360 has ever been and Sony's screw up with PS3 hurt the system early on. PS2 owners moved on to something else. Right now 360 owners are jumping ship to PS4. As they should be. XBone is the new PS3. Not the current, awesome, revised PS3 that Sony had to put nearly 5 years of work in to fix. But early gen PS3 which sucked. It is so bad for Xbros that they are championing Killer Instinct.
 
it would surprise me if ps4 didn't outsell xbone. if xbone had some incredibly compelling software to separate it from ps4 then maybe the $100 would go down easy but lets be honest and say that the lineups are more or less the same.... except for killer instinct which is my most anticipated next gen game of the year but fighting games don't sell systems these days :(

Smokey's fantasy dream already falling apart.

Since Ferny won't make a bet unless he thinks the odds are ever in his favor, I'll accept the NA bet. Winner gets one game of his choice, up to a 60 dollar value, on PS4, XBone, PS3, 360, Ouya, Steam, wherever.

The only problem we have is keeping up with numbers, since NPD now hides them. Whoever is losing the next gen battle will not publish monthly numbers. I think Luke can grab access to the NPD report, but he'll have to keep us updated on the numbers in some fashion.

Europe has ALWAYS been a Sony console region just look at the numbers.

How are the odds in my favor? The PS4 has a $100 less pricepoint lol. You should win easily.

Wait what is the time range for this bet? First year? First 2 years? We have to put a limit on this, we cant have this damn bet running for 7 years waiting for the gen to end lol

If Ferny is in I'll join in on the bet with Bob also in that Xbox will outsell PS4 in the US, not day 1 or at launch because it looks like Sony will have more stock out of the gate. So what's the time limit before I jump in on this?

Was the Zelda wii u game that "sequel" of LTTP?
 
Killzone PS4 has to be good, right? How many damn times can Sony let Guerilla Games make a Killzone game before they figure it out through repetition.

Also, MS Xbone indie policy is strange:

This is what Keven Dent has been jacking off to on twitter? No one gives a shit about the Windows 8 marketplace. Plus put restrictions on ram usage for indie games? Good luck.

killzone 2 and 3 were excellent

Smokey if you don't SLI these I will be disappointed

NVIDIA announces 'fastest GPU ever' for pros, the 12GB Quadro K6000

Will be over $2,250 as the K5000 goes for that much, though the drivers suck ass for gaming... but still I will be disappointed if you don't attempt it!

Lolz. I no longer have sli. I sold my second titan maybe 3 weeks ago. I am now a single gpu peasant!

Ya that indie plan is ass. Also KZ2 and 3 were both good games. 2 had some great multiplayer and the guy who did 2's multi is overseeing Shadow's so I have hope.

I dabbled a little bit in Killzone 2, but it really didn't do much for me. I think it was the graphics which turned me off. Everything was so brown, drab, and industrial.

I have Shadow Fall pre ordered. I like games with a full color palette and the OWL functionality seems cool. Hope GG can deliver.
