^ first sentence behind the => ,

So you think it's silly to hate people that ask for corrections?

Ofcourse, It's already quite obvious PSV numbers are wrong with the new model

It is funny that a game that wasn't released for X1 were on top 10 (spiderman), and them a game that were just sold as bundle selling more than the HW (even tough the HW could sell some unbundled as well)... But that is crazy funny for me. Before we used the weekly numbers to have an idea of how well HW and SW were selling (not with precision, but ballpark figures) now we use it to guess how much wrong they have got it.

We all we on here each week saying, VGC, these numbers cant be right. Here is the logic behind that. And each week the numbers stayed the same. We all said great now VGC is going to look silly AGAIN come NDP. The numbers kept coming the came. Now NDP happened and honestly it was worse than I feared. I Thought a 200k to 175k was possible, 200k to 150k still likely. I would not have gone as low as 110k.....

It is becoming a joke, every week we enter to see the numbers and have 100% sure that they seriously screwed something... 90% overtracking for one month, tracking games that weren't released, having a HW bundle sell more than the HW itself... and X1's May numbers are probably overtracked (the others we can't be totally sure).
