After a quick look through of their past research, they don't seem all that reliable.

GamePlan predicted that there would be a shift of MW owners on 360 to purchase MW2 on PS3 instead. Implying higher sales for the PS3 version of MW2 than what actually happened. In fact the ratio seems to have remained the same or even grown in 360's favor for MW2 sales between the 2 consoles.

I can't believe I'm wasting my time doing this, but here goes...

I'm not sure exactly what comparison you are making, but not a single one indicates any growth in the 360's favor.

Call of Duty 4 360/PS3
First Week:    70%/30%
LTD:               62%/38%

World at War
First Week:    64%/36%
LTD:               61.5%/38.5%

Modern Warfare 2
First Week:    60.3%/39.7%
LTD:               57.7%/42.3%
Last Week:    52.3%/47.7%

Wow, I guess that's what I get by not checking my arguments.  I knew that both versions overall have sold about the same number more.  MW2 (360) has sold about 2 million more than MW (360) and same with the PS3 versions.  I guess that was my bad to not realize my mistake that percentages were going to be vastly different even if overall their growth in pure numbers was the same.
