At least, there is a big problem with PS3 games legs in european data

It was already proven that VGC doesn't have any sort of data from Germany which is second biggest European market.

The only reason you don't see meldowns about software numbers in Europe is lack of numbers reporting organisations that we could benchmark VGC numbers and when they are sometimes it's halarous like where the Sly collection had more sales in Switzerland than VGC gave it in whole Others ;)

Before everyone starts calling out Vgchartz remember that this is a free site that offers something that no other site can. EMEAA is a tough beast to track and I'm pleased Vgchartz has done such a good job thus far. Sure there are mess ups and such but like I said it's free if you don't like it you can go find a site that does this better (which there are none)

People call the sites number a joke without knowing anything about what they do to really get their numbers. 

I believe Deus Ex was overshipped in Europe. It's already 20$ over there so I still think VGC is tracking the game correctly.

idk about that. If sales were based on UK, then software should always be selling higher on the 360 then the ps3 in emeaa. The opposite is the case. The ps3 version of games almost always sells signifcantly higher than the 360 version of a game in EMEAA. I'm assuming if there is some type of UK ratio. UK sales get doubled for 360 sales in emeaa and tripled or quadroupled for ps3 sales. Its not like vgchartz doesn't realize the ps3 is more popular in all of europe except Great Britain.

This x 1000.
All you people do is complain, and this is coming from someone who gets their heart broken monthly when your favorite consoles didn't do as good as you expected

Now we get top 100 for Germany every week, VGZ now got even better options now.

If it is true that this site bases it's European numbers off the U.K, then the whole Inazuma Eleven situation is explain (basically the game went on sale in all of Europe, bar the U.K, in January, with the U.K following in August; However this site only starting tracking European sales in August).

If 'calling out VGC' is telling the truth about it then I don't think there is anything wrong with that. No one is bashing the site, it's just that people should know that SW sales in EMEAA should be taken with more than a grain of salt. We just stated how those numbers are deduced and how accurate they can be. Then it's up to each person to decide whether it's worth it or not. I think it is totally worth it, but we can't pretend that VGC is 100% accurate just because we're here.
