just to get this straight
Posters here have a problem with GT5 sales because why? Territories that aren't counted
Not sure I get it

The site has trouble tracking in many of the places that Sony has expanded to, smaller countries that MS and Nintendo don't really try as hard with, for wahtever reason. This has been shown to generate many more sales than previously thought, which resulted in big adjustments that helped the PS3 a lot. While some of this may be what they are saying, I think others just think it has been undertracked in the main countries a bit too. There really is no way to tell until more official numbers come in. It wouldn't surprise me if ioi was relatively close though.

Try as hard to sell consoles or not try as hard to gather sales info?

No, they don't seem to push consoles as hard in these little countries, it seems like Sony puts more stock in their potential as Sony has a bigger presence in many of these places. So having greater sales advantages in places like Brazil, China, etc.... imagine the potential sales if Sony could tap into it and make the market viable like the U.S. or Europe or Japan. I think this will become a bigger factor next gen though, but the inconsistent Sony tracking is starting to display it. This is why when people seem to say Sony is undertracked more than MS or Ninty fans....it's because it seems to be happening a lot.
