You seem to take Microsoft's statistics at face value as you seem to try to fit there estimates with your numbers. And you have to agree that MS has an interest in misleading us... but really why would VGCharts lie? do you think they are run by Nintendo or Sony? it just seems that you really want to spin numbers until we agree that the 360 is the sytem of the gods. \ the numbers i really would like to see is what % of 360's are defective. because i know of a few people with broken down 360's... yours truly included. Been checking around different forums and sites a bit trying to find some real numbers myself... and I just had to sign up to ask... Are you serious that you trust the numbers on this site because you don't see the reason they would lie? That does not make any kind of sense at all. Of course you have to question the numbers if they don't show where they got them from. They could be missinformed themselves, you don't need to actively lie to post something incorrect. im serious. i think vg charts is reputable. Mostly because good video game sites link to it. Monty on the other hand sounds like someone from MS Publc Relations. believe whatever you want, but VG charts numbers make sense to me.

I think by the end of 07 360 will be able to have sold at least 3.5 million consoles (To reach 12 million and be 50% of Xbox1's 24 million)

TalonMan said: MortarDeep said: Guys, Just for your information, here is some game console sales in Canada released by the Canadian Press for 2006 http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/story/CTVNews/20070116/cda_video_games_070116/20070116 This is simply beautiful - and now, for all to feast their eyes on, some classic Monty quotes: Add in the rest of NA for Nov 05 - Oct 06 (a full year), and you'll EASILY have another 1.5 million... A lot of you are trying to say that 12 months of Canada and Mexico would only be 300k... that's simply crap. I'd say it's pretty conservative to say that Canada and Mexico sold another 1 million on top of that for the entire year of 2006. This is one of my favorites: Canada and Mexico are not as small of a market as you people want to make them, and I'm 100% positive they tally more than 10% of the US total. I'd put the figure closer to 20%... And just for fun - here's one more: Also, if you're at all competent in video game sales history, you'd know that 2 million for NA is not that much of a stretch for Dec. If it's not 2 million, it is damn close. - Hey, Mr. Videogame Historian - how many 360's were sold in December??? 1.1million???
