| CrazzyMan said: Funny. While ps3 numbers went from 433k to 544, instead of 563. x360 numbers went from 595k to 604, instead to 589. Why is that? =) VG don`t trust on 100% GFK or what? =) |
It's because old numbers for 360 are to high.
For end september, we have 500,000 at vgchartz instead of the 430,000 said by microsoft before the launch of halo 3. So, ioi is right for the last numbers, which must be more high. And it's the old numbers (before january 2007) who must be reduced.
But, ioi never modify these old numbers.
If you want more explication, we have that:
http://www.afjv.com/press0710/071008_playstation3_ps3_399_euros.htm
which said 97,000 360 since begin 2007 to end august.
If you do 589,000-430,000, you obtain 159,000.
So, during 2007, if we trust microsoft and gfk, we must have 265,000 xbox 360 during the year (because 9,000 during begin september to the launch of halo 3)
But vgchartz says: 205,395 xbox 360 during 2007. It's because this that ioi has modified his numbers in this way, and not in the other you thought.
