I still think you definitely need a case.  I know lots of people who dropped their iPod/iPhone and got the front all cracked up.  Happened to mine 2 or 3 years after using it.  

It really depends on how your phone is dropped. If you accidentally drop your phone flat, the screen will likely not crack because the kinetic energy can be dispersed in all directions. However, if you drop your phone on its corner, it will definitely crack because there are less directions for the kinetic energy to be dispersed.

Destiny bundle is back? I mean restocked?

No, its the Uncharted Collection + Destiny TTK for $349 ... basically they've added in Destiny for free

It took a while, but I found it. I was more biased in my earlier days in Chartz, though this comment was not.

Wow, looking at Chartz numbers Turkish was right as well.... PS3 had 50.2% market share of gen 7. Brilliant.

Bloody hell, Kowen is a sucker in that thread.

In this thread? lol

Yesterday Sony said GT games reached 75m... the third post in the thread was him saying GT6 sold 2.37m instead ~5m because the numbers released by a lawsuit (that me, Zhuge and others proved to be old VGC numbers lol).

I love how Pezus had the last comment of that thread

And Kowen.... well, he has been MIA most of the time outside of making the Microsoft Q3 2015 financials thread (which felt really weird to me).

In the thread Aura linked, its an excellent read.

I know! I saw that! I laughed for at least a solid minute, glorious!

That number 2.37m figure was proven to come from old VGC numbers weeks ago. Just where in the world has he been all this time?

I can't read these old threads because I do amazing necros lol

It's a good strategy. Instead of arguing that the other console can't reach a goal, just argue that the goal itself is a sign of failure.

I'll guess about 300k for this one but I think it will have bad legs. People really aren't happy about the co-op, bad word of mouth is spreading around in the UK.

[Kerotan]

If Xbox,  Kinect and 3 shaming games is 399, you'd imagine a x1 standalone for 299 could happen.

[Dr. Pezus]

Yeah, I don't know anyone who doesn't have a case for their phone. They aren't intrusive at all, they just make your phone a bit bigger. Since companies charge so much to replace screens (especially apple) it seems stupid to risk it tbh

Well you know me . And etho . We're just that rich

It really depends on how your phone is dropped. If you accidentally drop your phone flat, the screen will likely not crack because the kinetic energy can be dispersed in all directions. However, if you drop your phone on its corner, it will definitely crack because there are less directions for the kinetic energy to be dispersed.

I wonder if the Edge screen makes it more or less likely to crack

And Kowen.... well, he has been MIA most of the time outside of making the Microsoft Q3 2015 financials thread (which felt really weird to me).

It's the only time he can boast about MS nowadays. They rake in the profit (but not in gaming obviously lol)

[Xevross]

Updated console LTD shipments after the latest financials:

3DS: 54.34m
PS4: 29.3m
XB1: ~16m
WiiU: 10.73m

[Dr. Pezus]

I'm going to guess 310-330k for Halo 5 FW in the UK

Yeah, it just feels out of place since VGC is a gaming forum. To boast about something that is not even related to games is just weird...
