Forums - Microsoft Discussion - LOL wiki got it wrong, Most likely SCEE again

Lost tears of Kain on 24 September 2007

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xbox_360

 

Xbox i guess only has 8.9 million units sold according to wiki

 now the bets are on who set this one up, was it Sony entertainment again like the halo thing?



                 With regard to Call of Duty 4 having an ultra short single player campaign, I guess it may well have been due to the size limitations of DVD on the XBox 360, one of various limitations multi-platform game designers will have to take into consideration-Mike B   

Proud supporter of all 3 console companys

Proud owner of 360wii and DS/psp              

Game trailers-Halo 3 only dissapointed the people who wanted to be dissapointed.

Bet with Harvey Birdman that Lost Odyssey will sell more then Blue dragon did.

wiki should be ip tracking this and we should know soon enough, unless whoever it was that made the edit knows of something called a proxy...

It's really strange that whoever changed the 360's number based on a gamedaily article never changed either the Wii or PS3's numbers with it.

Luckily, most vandals are too stupid to google "proxy" before commiting their acts.  Even those working for SCEE aparently lol.  I wonder where this one will lead.

Maybe it's that guy that was banned from live for 4000 years (or something like that) due to the Halo 3 Beta exploit...

Looks like their citation for it is that recent Financial Times article which for now is the number that most official business seems most warm towards since nobody seems to track "Others" as much as ioi tries to. Seems like its just a case of we all know that all 3 systems have sold more than that article says but the sources the article used are all presumed to be accurate and official so thats the number that will stand for now. So at least for now whoever made the change was smart its got its necessary citation I dunno that I'd think it was SCEE that made the change though Microsoft articles are popular wiki targets could have been anyone. As noted it didn't change the Wii or PS3 articles I'd bet it more likely to be someone who is not a fan of anything Microsoft does in general. Just glancing over the edits too it seems like that spot has been having a bit of contention over this article, vgcharts numbers, vgchartz numbers, and Microsoft's shipped numbers for that particular spot.
