vgchartz doesn't have any serious estimation of worldwide software numbers and neither has anybody else except the software sellers themselves (Sony, MS, Nintedo)... vg software estimations are even less reliable than the hardware ones.

Sony recently stated in their official reports they sold more software on PS3 than MS did on 360 in the last fiscal year. That's all what we know for sure until now. PS3 > 360 now in software sales


 

Incorrect on so many levels

 

The first being that VGChartz in inaccurate on a worldwide scale for software. This is simply not true, and is evidenced by the fact that VGChartz figures are compared to released shipment figures by ioi and his staff, AND by members of the community

 

As for the 2nd paragraph, I hope for your sake that you aren't trying to imply that the total software sales for the PS3 are higher than those of the 360.

For what it's worth, he is kind of right with the first paragraph though it is overly negative.  The software is much less accurate than the hardware numbers.  It's not that rare to see the numbers here far above shipment numbers.  Sure they'll get adjusted, but we also don't get shipment data on every game.
