I know how to double knit (recently just learned but it's very easy), but am not sure how to double knit with stripes? Where/how do I switch colors and get to the inside of the work, and securely, so it doesn't unravel where I've switched colors??
Double Knitting Question

Sorry to say, I don't know. If you were here you could take the Double knit classes at my fave shop or even just pick the instructors brain.
Maybe you could have the instructor email me? I think I'll just knit the scarves in the round and block them flat, that way they will still be double warm and ss on both sides.

How think do you want the stripes? I did the Hoover blanket, which is striped and double knit. But, the stripes are only one stitch thick, so you just carry both colors, knit MC and purl CC. I'm thinking you want a heavier stripe than that, right?
Just remeber you're just doing the opposite on each side. So say you've done four rows of red and now you want to start on four rows of another color just switch it up. if you need to tie on just make sure to make a tight little knot all all will be fine, Double knittting with strips can be difficult at first. But keep it up and you will be double knitting more complex patterns before you know it!!

I installed Windows 7 and forgot to do something about saving my Firefox settings except for a full backup through Windows Backup. I also copied all my files in my home directory to an external drive, not fully trusting Windows Backup to get everything I needed. So I essentially have 2 ways of getting back my old files.
Now I would like to get my profile from the previous installation to work in the freshly installed Windows 7 system. Can this be done if I have the previous files under AppData?
What do I do to restore the profile?
I also happen to have all of the old files in C:\Windows.old if I need them.
Btw, I did try copying the old profile files back in place (see location below) but it just did not work.

The Pike County Sheriff's Department held a press conference this afternoon after two farmers became victims of copper theft.
The Sheriff's Department arrested Michael Eugene Allen, 44, and Jonathan Noah Green, 29. Both men were charged with theft of property.
Investigators say thousands of dollars worth of copper was stolen from Michael Sanders and Tom Finlay's farms.
The sheriff says the thieves used the money they made from selling the copper to buy drugs.
Troy, Pike, Coffee and Crenshaw County offices helped in the arrest. Alfa Insurance is offering a $10,000 reward for anyone that has information about the third suspect.

One the heels of that post about a guy getting minced up into sausage, this just seemed to disturbing.
Fingertip Found in Wendy's Chili at Calif. Franchise
By Brian Skoloff
Associated Press
Thursday, March 24, 2005; 10:39 PM
A woman said she bit into a partial finger served in a bowl of chili at a Wendy's restaurant, leading authorities to a fingerprint database Thursday to determine who lost the digit.
The incident Tuesday night at a San Jose, Calif., Wendy's restaurant left the unidentified customer ill and distraught, said Joy Alexiou, a spokeswoman for the Santa Clara County Health Department.
Employees at the Wendy's were checked and the fingertip didn't come from any of them, officials said, adding that the well-cooked finger may have come from a food processing plant that supplies the company.
Denny Lynch, a spokesman for Wendy's International Inc., based in Dublin, Ohio, said there have been no reports to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration of injuries at any supplier of chili ingredients to Wendy's.
"All of our chili suppliers report no accidents," he said.
Health officials said the fingertip was approximately 1 1/2 inches long. They believe it belongs to a woman because of the long, manicured nail.
Investigators seized the remaining chili and closed the restaurant for a few hours.
Alexiou said the woman, who asked officials not to identify her, is at minimal risk of contracting illnesses from the finger because the chili was cooked.

"Luck, often enough, will save a man if his courage does hold."
So what had to have happened here is that someone lost a finger at the packing house or processing plant, they looked for the missing finger after the accident and figured what the hell it's all ground up, nobody will ever know. It's not like you wouldn't know about it when you cut a finger off and in a packing house I would think they would have looked until they found it.
I used to work for a meat company and we had a guy that actually got an arm yanked off inside a big machine that cut up large slabs of meat into small chili/stew meat sized pieces. The USDA inspector was right there to tag every container of meat in the immediate area, which was sent to a rendering plant for disposal. Obviously someone didn't report this accident to the inspector's.

The Business Of Politics
In the past two decades, Charlie Baker '86 has moved seamlessly between public service and the business world. Baker's 10-year tenure as CEO of Harvard Pilgrim Health Care followed stints in the Massachusetts Cabinet as secretary of health and secretary of finance and administration. But none of Baker's experiences in either public or private management quite prepared him for the rigor of his current role: candidate for Massachusetts governor. Baker is one of a number of Kellogg alumni running for public office this fall. While government traditionally has been an "Industry" dominated by law-school grads, the prevalence of Kellogg alumni on the campaign trail is no coincidence.

Putting aside shrapnel effects, I believe that high-explosives cause damage by producing a shockwave. How do shockwaves work in space? I've managed to convince myself that a high-explosive shockwave would work "about the same" by producing a shell of high-speed gas that would arrive at the surface with pretty much the same amount of energy that you'd get in air. Is that right?
What is a shock wave?
This about covers it.
Your thought experiment speaks of an explosive, and it can create a shock wave only if a medium exists to be shocked: sudden almost instantaneous creation of vacuum in air/medium and immediate collapse of that as air/medium rushes to fill it.
The answer to your question
is no, it is not right.
To reply to the title question:
one would have to know the number of shrapnel from the explosion, and also if there is dust from the explosive or gas for some reason. From conservation of energy the fragments in vacuum will have larger energy because they will not be pushing against a medium ( to create the shock wave) and if they hit would do more damage. Any dust and gas would also move faster but one would need a detailed model and objective for the explosion to know whether the damage would be the same as in non vacuum.
Supposing that the explosive does not contain shrapnel, supposing too that even after the impelling fragments do not encounter liquid, solid or gaseous or electro magnetic field media which all resist and absorb to some degree the released energy--one must consider the fact that such released energy is not radioactive or electromagnetic radiation but merely is mechanical energy only that gives huge momentum to the broken fragments which then go on travelling forever like any other space object with the same amount of energy they start with. If you come across them, they will instantaneously transfer their energy to your body, affecting it to a proportional degree. If they penetrate the body, they will rest inside. Otherwise, they continue to float after the impact but motionlessly only. They will of course always continue to travel with the speed of the universe.
So, if a media exists around, even though it resists or absorb to some degree the energy of explosion, it also transmits the slightly diminished energy or, as in the case air, the compressed airwaves comprise the shock wave that eventually destroys life or property if it has sufficient strength of force.

My future is un-framable! As a photojournalism major, I plan to travel the world and bring as much color to it as possible. I hope to experience so much that it can hardly be documented. In addition, I would like to teach English in Spanish-speaking countries and learn about indigenous cultures throughout the world and share what I learn with others.

Recessed LED Lighting in the Kitchen
My wife and I did not like the lighting in the kitchen of our new home so we did some research. We decided on recessed lights over each of the counters to lighten up the room. I bought a 5" hole saw for a 5" can. I made the hole with my Ryobi drill. That didn't work too well. It was about 3/4" too small. So, I whipped out my Ryobi reciprocating saw and cut the holes pretty easily. I pinned up a trash bag to catch the saw dust which worked very well. There were two cross beams in the path where I wanted the lights so I just moved them 6 inches. The project turned out very well and the lighting is awesome! We will soon budget to put the same lights in the dining room.

- taxonomy;
- stages;
- dimensions
Following the footsteps of emotional, social, cultural and other types of intelligence, systems intelligence offers a new perspective on how individuals act with a lesser or greater degree of intelligence within physical and social systems. First appearing in the published literature in 2004, systems intelligence has resonated with the related fields of decision making, communication and leadership, among others. However, to date, a taxonomy for considering systems intelligence has yet to be described. Building off Kegan's framework for human development and Hämäläinen and Saarinen's recent levels, we offer a new taxonomy of systems intelligence and describe its stages and dimensions. We focus on the three stages of attentive, active and inspired systems intelligence, incorporating three, four and eight dimensions, respectively. This taxonomy serves as a useful conceptualization for the future development of measurement tools for systems intelligence and as a basis for understanding how individuals might transition between stages.

What we love chooses us
Various Authors 8:01 p.m., July 24
The demolished College Center shopping center at 6300 El Cajon ("The Box") Boulevard awaits its fate. The 10.59-acre site was slated to be transformed — in 2003 — into an urban neighborhood with about 400 homes and opportunities for retail shops, one of the "urban villages." Objections to the inclusion of low-income housing and tight money have left this prime real estate looking like a field inhabited by giant gophers.

Gibbs and Marley are ready!
Kevin and the pups on the overlook
After the climb up the ski hill road, we're about to enter the nice trail to the right to begin the journey.
Dawgz appreciate the snow...
Looking down from Lake Peak to the lake
Gibbs on the knife edge trail with Penitente in the background
Gibbs and Marley love running in the mountains
Looking beyond to Baldy
Kevin and Gibbs take a short break
Peeking over the knife edge towards the west and the Jemez
This is a nice trail with a dropoff to the right
Pups found some snow to cool off in
Santa Fe Baldy
Another nice trail leading over to Penitente Peak
That ridge to the right comes off Penitente, which we'll be running down soon into those trees.
Wicked windy today!
A nice snow drift on the up approach to Penitente Peak.
It covered the trail, so we had to just go down below it.
Gibbs and Marley trying to get out of the wind, which was reported to be near 70mph
Sitting in the windbreak now looking North, I believe
KZ's Hokas
Marley's tongue
This was supposed to be a video of the dawgz and Kevin running around the snowfield, but alas...the camera I used sucks
An exxample of some of the snow we encountered in the trees on the trail down to the Windsor trail to Baldy.
This was easily 5 feet deep!
The kids
In the wind on the ridgeline approach to Baldy.
We unfortunetly ran into a couple with an aggressive dog off leash that attacked Gibbs, so we turned around.
Wish I had some pepper spray....for the owner, not the dog!

well we can all tell the hes a 360 fanboy.......anywaymicrosoft is in the same boat as sony they both need better games(i can say that cuz i got both xbox360 and ps3) the only good games microsoft puts out the door is gears of war fable and halo other then that all the other games suck ass...and dont try to say cod4 or cod5 (cuz there both on ps3 and there the same on both consoles).....one more thing 2009 is the year when people will realize that ps3 is better then 360
WTF?Posted: Dec 18, 2008 12:00AM PST by GameGoon89
Whoever's on the "I just bought a ps2" list needs to be slapped. And it appears Nintendo and Microsoft know something Sony doesnt know.
PS3....Posted: Dec 17, 2008 12:00AM PST by Damiannnn4
PS3 is at the bottom of the list why does this not surprise me? They need to not only lower the price but they also need to start making some better games because their shit sucks big floppy donkey dick!!
All I have to say isPosted: Dec 16, 2008 12:00AM PST by Nemus
Thanks Microsoft for the Xbox360! Hate MS if you want, but thanks to them hardcore gamers have something cool to play: Mass Effect, Halo3, Gears2, L4D, Fable2, Fallout 3 w/DLC. Hey PS3 users, I'm sorry for the LBP deception though... : (
RebuysPosted: Dec 13, 2008 12:00AM PST by no_talent
If they took your broken system and destroyed it, then rebuys would be significant, but the truth is these systems are going back out into the wild and are not counted as console sales because they are remanufactured units. Your rebuy is allowing someone to get a deal on a remanufactured console.
The ps2 mayPosted: Dec 13, 2008 12:00AM PST by Ap3cHe_w3rrior_falco
be continuing to sell well due to the extreme gimping of backwards compatibility thats been put in place with the latest PS3 models.
re: grognardPosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by mysteriousgamer
Points well taken.
To counter the excessive PS3 coverage, you yourself could write editorials and get them published. Maybe someone would read your articles...maybe even 1up.
@ voodooPosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by ToiletPaperMoustache
once again, it is not an argument. I was thinking wouldn't it be interesting to see the all the NPD numbers from ALL the systems, with sales going to first time customers, not just the Xbox 360. AGAIN, THIS IS NOT AN ARGUMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nintendo....Return of the King??!!Posted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by voodoo_12
Congrats to the big "N". Marketing has really paid off for them. Celebrity endorsements/comercials, reasonable prices.
M$...no doubt it would sell this many. What a weak argument to bring up "How many re-sales due to RROD". I will tell you. 4 relatives of mines bought xbox360 for the 1st time. With this said. the answer is somewhere less than 10% of sales were ppl buying it again. Next silly question.
PS3...PS2 is your problem. Why would ppl buy PS3 when a PS2 is just as good (only cheaper). SONY you are your own competitor. No wonder SONY PR pretends M$ and Nintendo dont exist.
PS3 lolPosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by pspgamer_master
I am not a fan of ps3s games but I am still suprised that people aren't buying them. 400 k in a huge month like this when the 360 which has been out since 05 sells 850 k is just sad.
The PSP neglected step child has been ignored again...Posted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by spon000
It's a shame the PSP is being snubbed by game developers. It's selling very well and no one is acknowledging the fact.
Everytime I look at up coming titles for the PSP, I see a small list with lots of TBA 2009 and not many definitive dates. It's time to get baby out of the corner and onto the stage. Let's see some games for the Sony system that is selling the best!
RE: Re-BuysPosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by ToiletPaperMoustache
Believe it or not, it does matter. Look at it this way, everyone knows that the Xbox 360 has a higher probability of crapping out than any other system. If you took the re-buys for the PS3 and the Wii, that would drop their respective purchases as well. All I'm saying is that with the higher re-buy for the Xbox 360, it does drop their NPD numbers more than the other two systems. It would be interesting to see the actual numbers for system purchases for people that has never own the system before.
ONCE AGAIN...Posted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by BlueBowser7
This should prove that "Next gen" console doesn't mean "HD graphics" and all hardcore games, and a super online community.... Obviously according to the numbers the next gen console has a new way of playing games, new kinds of games and it doesn't matter if the graphics aren't as sharp because the games are still fun, so stop saying that the Wii is not a "true next gen" system, because pretty much the Wii is once again setting up the way video games will be played from now on, and I'm almost sure that Sony and Microsoft will try to do something similar when the next set of consoles come out in 4 years or so.... Nintendo is doing the right thing so stop hating on them, I wish Sony would have done good cause they are good too but their high prices suck, better luck next time I guess, and Microsoft did OK for being an OK console too
Re-BuysPosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by WatDaFrick
Does it really matter? They get the extra sale regardless of who buys it, an extra sale is an extra sale. You could throw that variable in to the Wii, DS, PSP, and the PS3 also and it wouldn't matter because they still get the sale.
Not a FanboyPosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by ToiletPaperMoustache
I wonder about the Xbox 360 sales numbers. Let me explain: last month my Xbox 360 Elite got the RRoD. I bought my 360 at a Best Buy a year and a half ago and I bought the extended warranty. Their policy is for you to send your system in to them and they will send you a gift card for the purchase price so you can buy you another one or something else. I bought a PS3 because I was so pissed at Microsoft. I enjoyed the 360 and Xbox Live, but was just looking for something different. (A side note to all of you fanboys, BOTH systems have their pros and cons.) Now, with these sales numbers for the 360, I wonder how many are re-buys. If I bought another 360, that would count for another sale for Microsoft. Would the re-buys count for 15, 25 or even 30 percent of the monthly sales? It makes me wonder....
WELLPosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by Alf_Alfa
We see who the developers baby is this go round. The 360 is moving some software, so is the wii, of course. But to hit there target audience they will stick with the 360. I hate to see that Little Big Planet moved so few copies, but at least its up there, Little Big Planet ROCKS!
wowPosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by AStrangeDisease
Each of November's top ten sold more copies than all but the top three from October. It'd be nice to see the top twenty for big months like this.
Holy shiiiiPosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by Gary_Armstrong
Now every man, woman and child in the US owns a Wii surely?
@PS3_is_boobooPosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by dsmokeb
In the top 10 the 360 sold approx 3.3 million units, the Wii approx. 2.9 million. So it is pretty close. But I'd be more impressed with Wii sales if the games were more like games. err.. I mean the kind of games I like to play. I'm not bashing on anyone, but I'd like to see the Wii put together a good action/FPS that's original, plays as well as a PS3/360 game (controls, not graphics, obviously), and actually sells. Crack the top 10. Even though the PS3's sales are tanking, Resistance cracked the top 10 this month, and SOCOM did last month. FYI, the former is a better choice if your looking for a new game.
Wii dominationPosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by DickDastardly
Those Wii numbers are simply incredible, the Wii is on course to shatter every record the PS2 set. Even in a recession, it's still selling at record pace, keep in mind the numbers the PS2 put up was in a hot economy and the wii is outselling it in a terrible economy. As for the piss-poor PS3 numbers, that was just expected, every analyst said it would happen if Sony didn't lower the price. Oh well, maybe next year will be sony's year.
Those results are not surprisingPosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by Super_Joe_85
I'm glad to see the Wii doing so well regardless of the hate directed at the machine. I'm not a 360 fan but i'm also glad that it's doing well because it gives most people a very, very affordable HD-console. As much as i like the PS3 i'm glad it's in 3rd place because it drives the message through to Sony that they've overpriced their machine out of reach of most gamers. They seriously need to look into their pricing policy in '09 if they wish to remain relevant.
@dsmokebPosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by PS3_Is_BooBoo
I understand software is great to sell, but out of the top 10, the Wii had five up there. So you can't say the 360 was the winner there, either.
@Chance72Posted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by dsmokeb
I think your right. The fact that the PS3 used to be one of the cheapest Blue ray players on the market was a selling point. The PS3 is still a great system to own, but Sony needs to get moving on dropping the price. I think their best bet is to cut the PS2, and offer deals for PS2 owners who trade in towards a PS3. I don't know for sure, but it seems like the PS2 still sells like 100K units every month. If all of those people had PS3's instead the install base would be a lot larger. And really thats all that matters. The Wii might have sold alot of units this month, but the big winner is the 360. Selling games means developers and publishers are making money, and therefore will develop and publish more games.
hahaPosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by pspgamer_master
Call of Duty World at War on 360 sold twice as many as the ps3 version. The ps3 no longer has any excuses they just kind of suck.
Wii Music ?Posted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by White_Silhouette
Seriously all those people who bought Wii Music should be burned at he stake... Well i guess it's not as bad as Wii Cheer.
Also hopefully since MS sold all tose units this month they will realize that these people are going to be going online around christmas break. So hopefully the network doesn't crash and burn like it did last year
Sony competes against Nintendo, MS, and all other Blue Ray playersPosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by CHANCE72
That's the problem facing the company. They are outmatched on price 3x. During Nov., you could get a BR player for 128 bucks, and the sub 200 BR players is common. For people on a budget during a recession, you could get a 360 (199) and BR (128), for 70 less than the lowest cost PS3 model (399)., or of course the Wii and any number of BR players.
Sony has lost one of their biggest selling points now that BR hardware retails for 1/2 the cost of the PS3. And that problem will only get worse as BR players continue to decrease in price and the PS3 does not.
I'm hoping 2009 will encourage and reward content ...Posted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by snyktas
What I don't understand is while the Wii and the DS both have these huge install bases, the DS has tons of great games and the Wii has none.
No matter how you slice it, the PS3 has had many great games this year, and I hope Sony and the companies who've supported the platform are rewarded for that.
I'd rather know how often a game system is used for, you know, gamesPosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by Concan
And that's where the tie-in ratio comes in. If I was a publisher that would be the number, along with systems sold, that would matter most to me. I wonder how many PS3s are sold exclusively as blu-ray players. I'm guessing it's a surprisingly high number.
Sony is in TroublePosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by LordBilbanes
I bet Sony is really concerned about the poor sales of the Playstation 3 last month. It can't bode well when they sell less than half of the units of their closest current generation competitor. It couldn't happen to be a better bunch of scum bags.
Grognard66 for 5th Chair on 1up YoursPosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by Concan
Seriuosly, those guys couldn't be more out of touch with the average gamer. Shane's Japanese bias is always there, Garnett's too busy laughing at ALL OF HIS GODDAMN 'JOKES'. John and David are alright, but what 1up needs is a voice that represents games. I humbly nominate Grognard66 for that position, or failing that, bring back Luke.
@mysteriousgamerPosted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by grognard66
Just because Sony releases a new skin every week for LBP isn't an excuse for the skewed coverage - 1UP shouldn't see itself as the marketing division of any publishers. Following your logic, they should be covering Halo 3 every week because Bungie releases a new playlist every month and there are new user-created Forge levels every day. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad 1UP doesn't cover that Halo content, but it goes to show how biased the coverage has become. Like Bungie, MediaMolecule (and Sony) already have sites letting interested users know what is new for their respective games.
Also, there are new XNA games almost every day and the only coverage 1UP Yours has provided is to discount every title out of hand with disparaging remarks (how many times can Shane say "Jelly Car" - even though the game is not even on the service?).
Claiming that there's nothing to say about GoW2 because you just shoot things is the same as saying there's nothing further to say about LBP because you just jump and grab.

Wii Play and Wii Fit are numbers 3 and 4 on the list. Obviously people buy games based on their quality. -_-
Wow...Posted: Dec 12, 2008 12:00AM PST by gaming_since_the_nes
So, didn't we all know that Gears 2 was gonna sell a whole lot? The biggest surpries is how Wii Music sold more than LBP. All I ever heard leading up to it's release is how LBP was going to be the greates game ever; and it's supposed to be amazing. Hell, I want to buy it to play on my roommate's PS3 seeing as how he doesn't plan on buying it. I'm not trying to talk shit, but where's the love PS3 owners?! Only two PS3 games cracked the top ten for the last two months?! I know that PS3 owners aren't giving much love to their system because my roommate hasn't bought any new games for it and even wants to sell it. I'm trying to prevent that from happening because I want to play Resistance 2, K2, LBP, the next Twisted Metal, GoW3, etc., I mean, just look at how many more units CoD:WaW sold on 360 than on PS3. I think that eventually I'll have to buy a PS3 when enough good exclusive titles warrant it's purchase. Gotta give props to Mario Kart Wii for still selling strong. More 360 owners need to buy L4D. Oh, and props to Fable 2 for selling close to a million copies in October. Once I'm through with Fallout 3 I'll pick up Fable 2.
No love for LBP?Posted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by doubledmateo
With the way Sony had been pushing it, I was expecting it to do a bit better than this. Oh well. I'm sure COD:Waw, is a much better game.
Why all the Wii hate? We should rejoice!Posted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by Scouse_Poet
There's some pretty strong anti-Nintendo vitriol on here... I for one am thrilled that Nintendo are doing so well. Here's why: 1) There was a genuine fear that Nintendo were about to go out of business after the abortion that was Gamecube. I don't ever wnat to see a videogames industry without Nintendo. Ever. 2) Nintendo are broadening the appeal of videogames for people that would never have considered buying a console before. However you look at it, that is a great thing. It benefits all of us, period. 3) If all else fails, try and be philosophical about it like me; I'm not a huge fan of the Wii, but the DS is a great little system. While only someone very naive would imagine Nintendo are going to revise their new target demographic ('the casual player') as long as they keep making SOME games for the hardcore I'm happy. We all have plenty of hardcore games to digest on 360 and PS3, as long an Nintendo chip in with 3-4 a year, I'm fine with that.

StrifeCloud1984Posted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by OnLegendary86
I'm confused about why the NPDs have gotten you so angry and you have "had it" with them. Your rant has nothing to do with a report about numbers. If you feel as though these numbers have somehow insulted your 2 PS3 purchases on the other hand, rant on...I guess.
@silentruthPosted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by drofxo1
I believe it is just NA, also, I'm pretty sure (someone will correct me if I'm wrong, no doubt), that NPD numbers do NOT INCLUDE: Walmart, Amazon, and Steam, just to name a few. Which is of course interesting, since the first is the biggest retailer in the world, the middle is the biggest (behind eBay?) online retailer in the world, and the last is the most popular (it must be - 2 million users?) download service around.
All that being said, NPDs report trends moreso than exact numbers. If you included the above, it's likely things wouldn't shift too much... or would they? I don't know. Maybe they would...
Help! Anyone?
YeahPosted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by BlazingAero
There's only so many ways to report that "Gears 2 sold a crapload". There's really nothing else to report about it. As for L4D and CoD5... "There was a lot of shooting on XBL this weekend"?
1up isn't quite the Sony concubine some think it is. If anything, I'd say they lean a bit more towards 36o with their bias... but I'm not shot-calling or anything.
im tried of NPDsPosted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by StrifeCloud1984
Ive had it! No more with its i wont look at these anymore. I have 2 PS3s and a Wii and DS. Its pointless, I get it old people and little kids love the Wii and tweens and teens love the 360. But me as a 24 young adult i love my PS3. I dont have to deal with the 12 year old ass cracks on Xbox live that only spout racist comments. I can watch The Dark Knight on blu-ray and enjoy the HD experience. I have a great shelf of games that include games like Uncharted, Rachet, Warhawk, Little Big Planet and Metal Gear Solid 4. So when these people come looking for a more adult experience Sony and the PS3 will be waiting.
interesting pointsPosted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by mysteriousgamer
It might have something to do with the fact that Gears2 has had no new content, while LBP has tons of stuff being added every week, between costumes and user-made stuff.
Don't get me wrong, I love Gears2 more than most people, it's just that you already know everything about that game, so what more is there to write? Hoarde (sp?) is fun as hell by the way.
Just give inPosted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by larf07
Wii dominates because of an expanded/older/younger/everyone audience. The software will tell the tale from now on. If software fails on wii then people will still buy it, lol. I don't know.

@ mysteriousgamerPosted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by BlazingAero
Regardless of a 2-point difference in metacritic scores, I'd say that 10X the people are playing Gears 2. I can understand why LBP is getting more coverage, and I don't think it's because 1up is on its nuts more than anyone else. It's the fact that there's about 5 or 6 news stories related to it per week, since the need is felt to report every piece of costume coming to Sackboy. Other than that, LBP's prime is over. It had its 15 minutes with gamers via online videos, and it hit its climax with the Gradius video. Those who are still playing it will continue to enjoy it and make new things with it. Others have moved on.
these figures..Posted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by silentruth
world wide or north america?
re:Posted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by mysteriousgamer
According to metacritic.com, LBP rates a 95% and Gears2 rated slightly lower at 93%.
I'd say 1up.com was correct in assuming that players like that game.
pathetic reactions to #'sPosted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by Vangerdahast
damn, if I owned and loved a PS3, I wouldn't give a shit if it were in last place. Actually I would be as proud as I was during the last days of the Dreamcast. They are still making games for it, and now the games are getting better than ever on that system. Why would you care that Sony is losing a lot of money for poor marketing? I don't care that the 360 is and has always been America's choice for this generation of gaming, I care that it is my favorite because I like it the best and it is supported w/ some of my favorite games ever. Xbox wasn't "better" by the #'s over PS2, but Riddick and KOTOR are some of my favorite games of all time.
@mysteriousgamerPosted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by grognard66
GoW2, L4D and COD:WaW are all good games and 1UP Yours have spent more time talking about LBP, KZ2 and MotorStorm 2 than any of those. Little wonder ZD is bankrupt when their primary gaming website (and podcast) ignores what their consumers are actually interested in to indulge an editors personal agenda and bias.

"I know this is just wishful thinking while Shane's still around, but maybe 1UP (especially 1UP Yours) will start talking about games and consoles gamers are actually buying and playing, rather than acting as advocates and apologists for LBP (in particular) and Sony (in general). I like LBP, but it's hardly lived up to the hype and should never have been considered a high profile, system seller. Based on PS3's diminishing sales (Nov.07-Nov.08) and distant third place position, their highly touted first party titles obviously weren't system sellers. This was not "The Year of the PS3"."

Strange that it reaped that many sales in two or three days at the end of October, but wasn't able to make it in November. Especially considering that there's a breaking news story every time a new scarf or whatever is available (every two days or so).

Do you need to be the #1 market leader in order to succeed? No. PS3 is in a comfortable 3rd place. It's not selling any less than it did a year ago--actually just the opposite. So, I don't understand the sentiment that "PS3 is done!!" and crap like that.
Come to think of it, PS3 is enjoying the best 3rd place market in videogaming history. For example, last gen, 3rd place Gamecube only managed to sell 21 M units worldwide in 5 years+. PS3 has already sold over 16 M units in only 2....
Not too shabby for a 3rd place finish, eh?
Same can also be said for PSP...no it doesn't sell 1.5 M units per month, but does that mean it's doomed to failure? Um, nope. There are great games on it and great features on it that you can ONLY do on PSP. Sorry, I love my DS as well, but PSP does certain things better.
In closing, I'm getting sick of the fools who think if you're not first, you're last..or worse.
kid_atomic, the name for that stat in the industry is the "tie ratio"Posted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by amano_hyo
Gamasutra had a recent article on it, if you aren't in the mood to read, just look at the second graph.
There are a bunch more industry articles about this stat, since it's fairly important. Just google "tie ratio" and the system(s) of your choice.

Lol you must be a PS3 owner HAHAHAHAHA
I want to knowPosted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by kid_atomic
How many games the average Wii user buys compared to owners of PS3 and Xbox. Not like in this one month chart but how often the owner of each consul buys a new game and how many they tend to have in comparison to others. Most Wii owners I know only have like 1 or 2 other titles besides Wii sports and Xbox owners I know tend to have like 10 or so games. I only know 1 person with a PS3.
I think it would be an interesting stat at the end of the systems life cycles or a few years to see those average numbers.
How much time is left for this gen?Posted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by SamuraiTerry
This is the 360's 4th Christmas.
Without a price drop,Posted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by CLupula
the PS3 has no chance of catching up. Period. And I say this as a proud PS3 owner. Mom and Dad buying little Billy a game system do not know which one has which games. All they know is price. Sony better wise up and lower their price to $299 soon.

Does it really matter who sold the most no,does it matter if you enjoy your purchase yes,I am the biggest Nintendo fan and have only enjoyed 3 games on my wii,I love my Ps3 and 360.The funny thing is Ms is so trying to beat up on Sony they might be loosing focus on what matters.You dont hear Nintendo saying we kicked the shit out of MS this month.Fanboys SHUT THE FUCK UP,People get tired of hearing the same old BullShit all the time.

Lesson of the season.Posted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by shadow_logic
Take a hint from Nintendo. Ditch your quality control, allow any third-party to release shovelware on your system, release a bunch of overpriced and un-needed 'accessories' and finally take your online system and strip it down to the most basic of basics. Apparently this is how you sell a system.

SADPosted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by jellyjammer
I was really gunning for Sony this month. WoW, i don't know what the hell is going on. It's the opposite of last generation. Where sony would lead the pack and the Gamecube and the Xbox would trail behind. I really hope that they can get their act together. congrats to microsoft, those evil bastards( just microsoft, not the games division). Nintendo officially has everyone sucking their massive monry penis. WTF 2 million.
No LBPPosted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by born.prodigy
It's a shame LBP has already dropped off the top sellers. I kinda expected this though. LBP is a fantastic game but not a system seller (at least not at $400) like Halo and Gears. I think K2 has the most potential to move Ps3's. If Sony has half a brain, they'll advertise K2 like MS did with Halo. K2 could potential be the biggest release of the year across all consoles.

It seems like nobody in the gaming world understands the Wii. People are stll trying to say it's a fad that's going to blow over soon. They've been saying it for 2 years. Publishers don't really get it either (not even activision, it's by luck that they stumbled upon Wii success)
rough for sonyPosted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by bunnyhero
although if you add in the PSP to PS3 and PS2, the so-called "playstation brand' is doing ok
seriously though, let's not forget that sony is trying harder to be profitable than to win the war on installed base. the ps3 just needs to keep in the game enough for publishers to continue to want to publish games for it. in theory anyway.
Well...Posted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by MicroGates
I guess it's gonna take more than free online play and Blu-Ray to win this gen huh? Congrats on the PS2 though for still hanging tough.
The WiiPosted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by Egen
It sure sold a lot of units, and a bunch of first party software... but once again, no third party Wii software is selling. Is it growing the game market, or just growing the Wii market?
Those PS3 numbers are pretty brutal though, I wish more people were getting LittleBigPlanet... seems like price is still a HUGE issue.
but...Posted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by zonerbucks21
It is the most family frendly. I will never buy one but all the moms and dads will if they have little kids.
WOWPosted: Dec 11, 2008 12:00AM PST by zonerbucks21
That is alot of Wii's. I didn't even think there was that many out there but I can see why cause even my spanish teacher bought one for her kids. As for the top selling games I didn't buy a single one and I am dissapointed to not see Little Big Planet in the top ten. I love that game.

It only worked in Chinese Menu, the first language. Please help.
