I say, if you can track it because it's bundled... track it. A sale is a sale. For Reach, Alan Wake, and any other game that is bundled with any console.

agree

I agree. VGC knows about these console sales so it shouldnt matter if physical disk or not. They dont discard sales of bundled discs that dont get played (we have to Wii Play discs and 1 Kinect Adventures disc that have never been used).  I can see not tracking digital sales (notice I said sales) because no way for VGC to find out that info unless MS, Sony, Nintendo wants to open up the books.

Yeah, i mean look at boxofficemojo, they have done the best they could have for every movie released, and sometimes they were able to get overseas totals... and sometimes they weren't.  They are a well respected movie numbers site, and they don't make any apologies for doing the best they could do to track the numbers... if they didn't get it, they didn't get it because it was too old, but if a studio releases numbers, they take them.  No reason for this site not to do the same.  It may help its respectability too... given that it is lacking that from outside sources, despite their efforts and hard work so far.
