So valve hasn't released any figures? Wasn't NPD supposed to start tracking digital distribution, have they started yet? I have no doubt it sold well but I'm doubting it sold so much as to make the 360 version sales look like ass. Afterall its selling amazingly on the 360, it sold more than COD:WaW last month according to NPD and that is amazing. Although with the 50% off deal maybe the PC version got a big boost ahead of the 360 version.

 

1. The NPD will never be able to track DD sales as companies wont release figures.

2. 1.6 million sales is not much when you consider its Valve's game. So your last sentence makes no sense if your looking at it as if your meaning the 360 version has sold more than the PC becasue I have shocking news for you. It hasnt and never will unless every L4D compatible PC on this planet blows up in the next 10 seconds and every L4D PC user buys a 360 and L4D.

3. This brings me to my final point. If the PC version of L4D sales have reached, which isnt hard to believe, between 3 - 4 million copies then how can you say that the 360 version has sold even close to that? you can't.

Again where are you coming up with these numbers? I'm not saying either one outsold the other because we ave no data but you seem pretty convinced. So where are you getting between 3-4 million?
