Is this a normal way of communicating numbers?

Like the first number was kind of bullshit, (putting sold and shipped together) this is a million more bullshit. Pardon the language.

This is just spinning numbers so we won't notice the company is very very disappointed with the sales and heads will roll.

Yeah its the normal way of communicating numbers. In fact all retail numbers you ever saw in your life are reported as shipped since they can't control every retailer in the world and see how much is sold in every store. Digital is easy, just check PSN total.

It's shocking you were ignorant about that fact seeing how long you're on this site.

We'll see in their financial report whether they're disappointed.

Ha, thanks for assuming that I am clueless, ignoring the fact that I didn't say (lol, read: mean... keep editing while i write this..) anything about shipped vs. sold (the retailers numbers) It's about including downloads (sold) in a shipment number. Ah fuck it. I see my reaction was not elaborate enough for you (or possibly any other) to make the distinction in what i was 'frustrated' about.

And why the hell is no one mentioning the amount of digital sales? Why? If we are talking numbers, and people are adding millions to predictons and all, how come no one distinguishes that very important number and subtracts it from whatever number we're dealing with so we can at least make a slightly more educated guess.

I guess I am just really curious about those sales and the lack of updates has finally gotten the best of me on Vgchartz. I am sorry. After all these years...
