Ummm this game is undertracked Konami has said that MGS4 has sold 4.41M copies as of Oct 08

You should be banned for not having learned the difference between shipped and sold. Everyone not seeing the difference should be banned as there's been pretty much confusion about that. Oh, and the rules should include something to clear this up.

 

You should be Banned for tell me that Im wrong when clearly according to Konami's earning report MGS4 sold 4.33 WORLDWIDE

 

GTFO

Okay, guys - calm down (what a stupid thing to say... It's 3 hours ago!)

Shadow, you're making the most common mistake on VGChartz.

Companies report sold to retailer (shipped to the retailer) whereas VGChartz (and NPD, Chart-track and such) tracks sold to consumer. There is a big difference between this.

 

You see, companies have no way of accurately tracking how much each retailer sold of the games. Therefore, it is much easier for them to report how much they sold to the retailer.

 

The shipped (sold to retailer) number will always be higher than the sold (to consumer) number. It is like this for all games, and Metal Gear Solid 4 is no exception, no matter how good the game may be.

 

PS: Zkuq, I think you acted horribly here. Not knowing everything is no reason to be banned.
