I would cut VGC some slack. They do not have that many data points and it seems those lie mostly in Xbox territory. They should listen to their data first and only second to trends. If they're just blindly adjusting their numbers to trends this whole thing becomes pointless guess work. If at some point their data speaks the truth they would be the fools by changing them due to "popular demand". I'd rather trust my own gathered data even if it seems biased than adjust them for popular beliefs.

They're still adjusting them when they gathered more data so I don't see a problem.

 

I agree completely. I just don't get why it's suddenly forbidden to express your doubt about the numbers.

Most of the users doing so back up their prediction whether it's last week's numbers, NPD, Amazon ranking, etc.

Aren't predictions and crow eating part of why vgc is fun?

I agree but I have a question, what is the VG's source of their little data points ?
