Then why comment? Why bother coming to this website?

Because in the forums I can find topics on NPD, UK and Japan charts and find out real and accurate sales numbers there.

If it were on the front page, it would be easier for everybody to find it, the numbers would be much more accurate, reliable and up-to-date. And the sites name would still be VG Chartz - just better chartz.

And I comment because I can and am allowed to. If you feel that I should not be commenting, report my previous post and have the mods ban me. Otherwise, keep your nose out of my business.

I only asked why you comment, I didn't tell you that you shouldn't. There's no need to be antagonistic about a simple question.

I stopped caring about VGC numbers long time ago, especially about 2 month old software data that is incredibly inaccurate anyway.

They should just quit this guessing game altogether, and just put official NPD/ChartTrack/Media Create numbers onto the front page.

Until they get the actual charts sorted out, I think this is a good idea.

PS4 is straight up murdering even with nothing coming out. This holiday surely will be interesting because it isn't until next year when the Japanese exclusives and the Sony exclusives start to roll out for PS4. If MSFT can't make up any difference at all this holiday despite their better software lineup then Sony has a lock on #1 for the rest of the generation.

Do you see how easy it is for even a PS fan to be drawn into the narrative? This simply isn't true. In the last TWO months we've had:

Journey (got let's played a lot)
The Vanishing Of Ethan Carter (Was well received and got quite a few let's plays)
GOW3R (mixed response)
Everyone's Gone To The Rapture (well received)
Rocket League (Gets let's played all the time)
Volume (seems to have slipped under the radar but scored quite well)
Galax-Z (did pretty well. People loved it)
Until Dawn (Get's lots of let's plays)

There were others but this will do. THAT'S the reason the PS4 is selling well, regardless of what other people may say.

The PS5 Exists.

You can make a case for the unbolded, but the bolded titles did nothing for the PS4 in terms of sales.

I completely disagree. It's the weight of ALL those titles that keeps the momentum going.

Great numbers for the PS4! Same goes for the 3DS. Just wish the One could somehow get a jump start in Japan though. Would really help out its misfortunes over there. :(
