No... you need to put the game in the ps3 to chose a side. It isn't shipped. It adds up perfectly. If it were shipped it be closer to 800k

Based on... numbers pulled from your ass?

300K from 500K is only a (60%) sellthrough.  That's not that high.

And your taking 2 week old numbers and comparing them with new data... yeah.. that aint flawed

It's not 2 weeks old.  It's 1 week old.  This week hasn't even finished, therefore there would be no numbers on them.

It would have had to of sold 200K between the US and Europe... that defies all sales curves.

He's making it up.

Yes because Sony doesn't observe their own servers numbers... yeah.. great logic.

once again.  Alternate PSN Ids+taking the game to friends houses.

Same thing happened with Warhawk... the numbers were way larger then people thought... then when Sony revealed what perentage were downloads... in fact it was way higher then it should of been due to alts.



im sorry... i didn't realize that this game was downloadable

It isn't.  It's a basic point to show that when they quote from "Ids" Sony is often off by a LOT.

If they are quoting server numbers... they're surely overquoting their sales.

Additionally... I'm guessing Beta testers get to keep their info?

stop trying to expain dude it's obviously not working.

look I have 3 seperate accounts all with a mag login character, 1 for each faction, and I know for a fact I didn't buy 3 copies of MAG, lots of people I know have done the same, he's obviously talking about accouts. Just look at psn accounts, is vg charts untracking ps3 sales by 9+ million units??????? or do single owers own multiple accounts?

I have 4 btw, 2 american, 1 japanese,and 1 euro.



MAG? i thought that game didn't sell well (i don't keep track of sales news lately)
