Yeah, I still don't get why there's so much secrecy over the sales data of the gaming sector. We don't get that level of secrecy in any other entertainment media that I can think of.

My theory?

Valve has been making a KILLING on steam.  By not releasing full numbers for everything, they can "hide" from competition for a little bit longer and try to be known as the main service before some big guys try and show up and muscle them out.  (Well competantly, not like Microsoft has tried.)

Steam probably has given Valve enough money to buy a spaceship made out of money, fueled by diamonds with missles made out of platinium.

And yet we still don't know a thing about Episode 3 :P
