Lol, didnt VG have the 360 outselling the ps3 355k to 338k for the month of febuary?

Yup. Even when Microsoft acknowledges it, VGChartz doesn't seem to believe it when the PS3 outsells the Xbox 360 in America. You'd think that after the January NPD numbers (especially with Microsoft saying even then that they didn't expect to be back in the saddle until March) that VGchartz would give the PS3 a bit more credit. No such luck, however.

actually, if you remember, vgchartz tracked ps3 sales way below 360s sales last january and when npd numbers came out, figures were adjusted (i should know, its a pain updating my sales tracking. back tracking and checking what and where sales were updated). now, during february, we see the ps3s sales outselling the 360 ww on a weekly basis as tracked by vgchartz. so the statment form ms would actually justify vgchartz tracking the ps3 over the 360 during february on a ww basis.

so i dont understand how you could say that vgchartz isnt giving the ps3 "more credit"

Except, as far as I can tell, those numbers were never adjusted: http://vgchartz.com/hwtable.php?cons%5B%5D=PS3&cons%5B%5D=X360&reg%5B%5D=America&start=39453&end=39481
