You did notice the word "milestone" in their press release, right? Btw, didn´t they have Asia left to release in this december so by your logic, another number would be released when that launch had passed? I have no idea what date that is, and I don´t seem to find it online.

No, I have the feeling the launches, either have died of quite a bit for both Sony and MS, and that is why we are not seeing numbers or, they are playing the waiting game, just looking for when their competitor releases its figures.

Yeap... they released in Asia and Mid-East in 12nd Dec and 17th Dec but the tracking services there are not like EU and US tracking services... you will need to wait a bit more.

PS4 increased near the Christmas.

So you think Sony calls the resellers to check how many units they have sold? :)

Ofcourse they don´t, they go by shipped=sell-through at launch since that gives a pretty accurate account for the numbers of consoles sold. Otherwise they would never been able to know that they sold 1 million units in the first 24h on market in NA.

When counting, based on what we so far know, this is what has happened according to Sony and VGChartz:

2013-11-17: Announcement of 1000000 sold in 24 hours.

2013-12-03: Announcement of 2100000 sold in NA+SA+EU

2013-12-07: Accordning to VGC 2379000 sold

This averages on almost 69000 consoles/day between the first two announcements and almost 70000 consoles/day between the 3/12 and 7/12. According to those numbers, PS4 would actually have INCREASED slightly in daily sales after its two biggest launches. 

Something doesn´t add up and I do not care if it´s with MS or Sony, they have become too quiet all of a sudden.
