I dont mind too much about the numbers being some thousand units up or down .But having the best info available is the best for the webpage .And sometimes it is infuriating when theres definite info as the 500K 360 number for France said by MS themselves and the site royally passes into adding that data to adjust numbers .I dont know what is needed to adjust data .NPD data doesnt adjust vgchartz data anymore ,Gfk data the same unless its something released in their own webpage ,company info it depends sometimes its used to adjust numbers but others (specially if its Sonys numbers) it isnt .

Next Gen wars is a joke and its not a rival site ,and this site is still the best out there for sales estimations (not tracking ,tracking 2% I am sorry but its not enough ) but it has to clarify some concepts and use it equally for all the companies .And it must use the info from bigger tracking firms as Gfk ,Game charts ,Enterbrain ,Media Create and NPD to have the better data available .Relying in our 2% tracking (or less in Japan and Europe ) just isnt enough .

All the latest data (France numbers ,NPD november ,even Sony just released 1.2 million consoles sold since black friday) add to the belief that the PS3 has been somewhat undertracked and not the contrary .Maybe it was overtracked some 10-15K units in Spain or Italy but the overall numbers are in the high end and probably exceeding the 8.92 millions we had until yesterday .Theres zero info about Spain or Italy data right now ,and the France one puts the PS3 above what we have here so ....I definitely dont see why the PS3 numbers have been lowered .

Not that I care too much ,after all sooner or later the Gfk numbers will be officcial ,npd will release theirs or Georges Fornay (Sony France responsible ) will speak and we will know and the numbers will have to be adjusted all the same .But not changing the numbers until some definite info comes ,some definite info that can be shared with the followers of the site ,would help by not having these kind of stupid discussions about 200k units up or down .
