NOTES

Tracking GT5 and Reach sales week by week make me noted some thing interesting... week by week GT5 got adjusted Up or Down so every week I made all the maths again... but Reach not... after 15 weeks I didn't make any adjustment.

That's make me think... is more easy tracking Microsoft games than Sony??? Or Reach had a previous games in this gen for reference (Halo 3) and GT5 not???

Edit - Thanks @4k1x3r

In most cases yes, and particularly for titles that sell the bulk of their total in US.

Even with it's decent performance in EMEAA most 360 sales HW and SW are in US, which is a single territory to track even though it's very large.

A lot of PS3 HW and SW sales take place in EMEAA and in more territories that are harder to track/poll than where 360 trades.

So... 360 should definately be easier to track than PS3 both for HW and SW.

With so much of Reach's sales in US vs GT5 which is all over EMEAA it's pretty easy to see why Reach numbers should be more stable.
