Sigh, this Amazon hourly discussion has become pointless. Everytime PS4 gets ahead people are just going to shout "SCAMS"! I mean are we forgetting the fact that PS4 has outsold the XBO 10 months in a row in the US? Is that hard to believe it could win a couple days? Or even a couple hours?


If people want this to stop then might as well stop talking about hourly's in the monthly thread. It seems the weekly and monthly aren't taking the scams into account. We can just talk about those.

That remains to be seen i think. The scams didn't reallyt kick in until last week, and we don't have the weekly list for that week, and a few days of scams is not likely to cause much of a change in the monthly. The proof of the pudding will be in the W/E 24 Nov weekly list. If that has PS4 ahead then it's likely to mean they haven't weeded out the scam data. End of the day the predictive value of Amazon (vs NPD) will only be affected if the top console on Amazon when November finishes up is not the top console for NPD in Nov.

What's interesting is how fast the CoD bundle has fallen. After starting the month ahead of PS4 it's now dropped to 36 with PS4 sitting fairly steady at 15.
