But it is 0.6m, you just said so. Please dont treat games shipments like hardware shipments. They dont press a few thousand then a few thousand more to order. They ship large quantities for extended periods of sales.
and who said anything about shelves and ships. If PD ships to SCEA or SCEE for future bundles etc they are still shipped as far as PD are concerned.
How many Halo games do you think have been shipped? 9m? I'd say yes, about that.

It would be 600,000 units of GT5 still yet to be sold from September. Those 600,000 probably wont be done by VGC until say, February? Are you saying that PD shipped stock for ~5 Months?
Its pretty obvious that its undertracked.
1.3 Million is too much, no matter what you say. It wasnt selling outstandingly when the numbers were announced and its nowhere near selling out said September shipment. Nothing will change my mind on this.
Halo 4? No idea. What numbers have Microsoft or 343i released?.

they dont release numbers and you know it.
Go look at the shipment history of GT5 and learn a little.
By Dec 2010 6m
By Sep 2011 7.3m
By Dec 2011 7.4m (100k extra)
By Sept 2012 9.1m
Bt Dec 2012 9.1m I reckon.... zero extra shipped.
Its pretty obvious they ship in large quantities.
It may well be the final shipment for some considerable time for all we know.
ALL I AM SAYING is shipment data alone does not tell us confident sell through numbers for software.
You can currently offer me nothing more than this.

so we go by your assumptions now? cool
"ALL I AM SAYING is shipment data alone does not tell us confident sell through numbers for software."
it pretty much does, mostly in this case to, as they wouldnt ship if there was not any demand and people werent buying it. simple logic.
