"In terms of individual SKUs, the best-selling game of the month was the Xbox 360 version of Fallout: New Vegas, which sold around 679,000 units in total."

So that means we overtracked a bunch of things...namely fable 3?


Fable 3 is super overtracked.


So reality might be 2/3 of the total we see or 1/2?

or 130k, how on earth do you get to half ...


Well for somereason I thought it was 1 million, and I think based on the above information it should be between 500k -666K (679K max).

I guess it is between 66% and 75% of 900k (the total we actually have?)

blame the pre-order numbers.

I fail to see what they have to do with this.

We have 815k for Fable III, so for arguments sakes say it did 5k less than Fallout (we'll never know) that's 135k overtracked. Could be more, but I doubt we have it at 815k and it did 400k .....

I just saw it. Where the hell did I get 900k or 1million from...I don't know. (I thought someone said in this thread.)
I think it is above 500k but below fallout (which is what I mean by 666k)...that is what I meant originally.

Add: @secce sorry for confusing. In class and getting distracted easily between the two...

It's ok, I get how the numbers can be consuing when we have 2 sets for Americas and then there is NPD.

So what?!! I already said it could be overtracked 130k or more, not even 1/3 let alone 1/4.

I find that to be a pity, since while not a fan of fable 3 as the rest of the people here, but I thought it was just as good as fable 3 when all said and done.
