Everyone needs to settle down about the pre-order charts and take them for what they really are...which is a very rough estimate of how a game is doing. There is no way they will be all that accurate unless they get direct data from most of the retailers out there which cannot happen unless you want to give Vgchartz the million or so dollars to get that expensive process started.

wherr did you hear this

You think all of the retailers are going to just let Vgchartz have access to all of their figures for free? No, they'll want a little something in return. And when you multiply that little something by all most of the big retailers in the US you'll have yourself a pretty hefty on-going fee that you have to pay.

The million figure was a complete estimate...it could be anything from around 100k to 10m to do something like that. Either way though, it would cost a good sum of money and that was my point.
