Actually, if anything, seeing it go up real-time immediately tells me it's an estimate at best, cause real-time worldwide sales measured in units or tens of units are obviously impossible to get, and I'd expect anyone with half a brain to figure that out all by himself. Plus, I really can't fathom why would anyone be shocked at this, particularly in a site dedicated to sales discussion. I mean, projecting current sales into the future is "what we do". Needless to say, there's a news article in the front page doing just that right now. Don't get me wrong, I'm not supporting the said site or anything. I also don't think it's good taste to crosspost numbers between sites unless it's to seriously compare the (de)merits of each aproach. Never like this, obviously, as if they were some sort of "hidden truth". I'm just saying this's probably far from being the said site's worst fault. |
Agreed.
I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do.
Chrizum is the best thing to happen to the internet, Period.
Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!
Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.
