ORIGINAL: RocketRaiders N4G has been plagued by Vgcrap's Fake numbers which are posted every week by the THESOURCE (from vgchartz) aka Cyrus. Here is a comparison between the 2 sets of numbers. Typical VGCRAP reports NA sales which account for US,Canadian and Latin American console sales.Typically Canada represents 10-11% of US sales. VGCRAP numbers for JUNE in North America (includes US, Canada and Latin America) Plat USA Est Wii: 720,000 PS3: 332,000 360: 262,000 PSP: 300,000 DSL: 755,000 PS2: 147,000 Actual numbers from NPD for June ( US + estimated numbers for Canada) PS3:405,000 + 45000 ( 450,000).....Vgcrap has downgraded sales by 120k x360: 219,000+ 22000 (241,000) ....Vgcrap has inflated sales by 21k Wii:666,000+67000 (731,000) PSP: 337,000 + 33,000 (367000)....Vgcrap has downgraded PSP sales by 67k Although NPD doesnt track PS2 sales VGCRAP's guesstimates come up with bizarre numbers every week. VGCRAP is a website operated by just a single guy named ioi --a person who was banned from neogaf forums. Vgchartz's numbers are banned from almost all major gaming websites and forums including Neogaf, Gametrailer forums, Gamespot forums, ign forums and forum italia Please ban VGCHARTZ and CYRUS aka (the source from Vgchartz) They are just numbers mate... and the power they have are what you give them... Just enjoy your games and don;t worry about numbers.... there are always going to be bias crap every where be it games work life, you just have to see past it .... Games rule that all that counts...
