Read over your own quotes from the great John Carmack, they are his opinions. When a person says "In contrast he thinks the PS3 will be harder to develop for", the key thing in there is the word "thinks", he only thinks this, meaning it holds no truth and is only an opinion.
That was what I said and here is your response to that.

I'm going to have to disagree with you on that because "Thinking" can also be opinion.
Now, didnt I just say what you said?
I would like to state how knowing can also be an opinion.
If I say "I know this chicken is (notice how I didnt say, will be) better tasting than that chicken" and I have tasted both of the chickens, this is also my opinion, but it is an opinion I know is fact in my mind. Here is another example, "I know Half-Life 2 is much better than DOOM3", this is also an opinion, yet since I have played both games, I do
know which is better in my opinion.
Moving along here is the rest of my words

This line could also mean he hasnt even used a PS3 devkit, as he only thinks. In my opinion, if he has used a PS3 devkit, it wouldnt be he only thinks, it would be he knows.
For the record I was not saying this is a fact, I was saying this
could mean he never used a PS3 devkit.
Lets look at this line of John Carmacks once again.
"In contrast he thinks the PS3 will be harder to develop for with inital games being disappointing as a result."Now, when I look at that line, IMO he has not used a PS3 devkit or he would have said the following.
"In contrast he thinks the PS3 is harder to develop for with inital games being disappointing as a result."All I did was change one simple part of the sentence and it gains a whole new meaning. To me, there is a big difference between when someone says something
IS and when they say something
WILL BE.
