Yeah, that was for the PS3 prediction though

Quote: "What things did you predict right, Matt?"
That list will go on for ages. TGC has a magical property, the ability to make my predictions not happen, lol. The only thing I've predicted on TGC and was right about was EE selling more copies than Jeku first predicted, although only barely lol. On my old radio show I was
always right, though. I'm going to try and dig up some old recordings of those for proof, knowing you you'll want some lol, but some of the things I predicted on the air back then:
* Broadband would catch on (arguement was that people didn't care for and would never want broadband)
* New York City would pass anti-smoking laws, and New York State would follow suit (kind of wrong, I thought it'd happen within six months of California doing it, but I was eventually right)
* PS1 would be the top console of its generation
* PS2 would be the top console of its generation
* Michael Moore would make a documentary about health care (made that one back when he did Bowling for Columbine)
* Halo would be the biggest seller on the xbox... called it before it was released
* Peter Jackson would "try to remake a serious classic that he shouldn't (mess) with" (expletive deleted) (that might even be on my old website, I'll have to check)
* George Bush would be President, and would do two things he's already done during his Presidency (can't say what specifically, AUP forbids it)
* The Third Matrix movie would suck
* Hillary Clinton would run for President (made that one after she was elected in New York... although in all fairness a lot of other people predicted the same thing)
There's tons and tons more, those are the ones I think of immediately when someone asks about that, and those are the ones that come up most frequently when people I know bring it up. I'm really good at it... predicting stuff is my only natural talent lol. Everything else I had to learn and still struggle with. I already know what you're going to say, it isn't that impressive, but whatever, at least I'm *usually* good at one thing lol.
