My only problem with this site's numbers are the adjustments. When the numbers are off a little, OK, but when they're off a lot and the only way to correct them is after the big three release their numbers, or by running with NPD's numbers, it makes this site look like a Mickey Mouse operation that is easily dismissed by other communities. Case in point: the huge PS3 adjustment in others for the past several weeks. I remember looking at the others numbers at the start of the week whenb PS3 was at 90k-ish, at the end of the week, that had skyrocketed to, what 155k? With the new adjustments, the weekly others looks nothing at all like it was being portrayed on this site previously, hence, it's really easy to point at VGZ's numbers, laugh, and call them a joke.

Thing is, isn't it more important thatthe numbers are right?

When new data comes in that causes these adjustments, it only helps in making future numbers closer to the truth in the long run. Besides, don't act like seeing high PS3 sales didn't make you happy lol

Hmm... is this the infamous keeprollinrollinrollin? It might just be. Ladies and Gentlemen we have royalty in our presence.

Also GT could learn something from snfr. Here at VGChartz we tend to know the difference between "I couldn't care less" and the vastly misused, error engulfed, putrid phrase "I could care less".

Yo gametrailers, get Geoff Keighly a new suit. We over here at VGC are laughing. With the latest E3, he lost all style.

Seriously though why is there so much hate against VGC? If you think you can do a better job, feel free to creat a website and make a living out of it. See, you can't.

I can see the point of not taking VGChartz data with fine point accuracy. Especially lately since data has been wayy off. However I don't see why people hate on VGChartz since there is basically no one else tracking.
