I notice I see Fable 3 up there in sales but no Halo Reach... reason? Or just not done yet? If we can track it, track it, no reason to discount digital sales if we know them.


Consistancy.

But wouldn't a higher % in accuracy be better than 100% consistancy?  Just the way I feel about it though.  Although I'm sure finding more digital sales of other games would be harder to track, but still. 

Doesn't mean a higher % in accuracy though.  people know the numbers doesn't include digital sales and if you are going to include digital sales of the bundle while you haven idea how much it has been downloaded without the bundles you are probably to get   an higher accuracy for halo reach numbers without the digital sales;..

U dont know how many games bundled with consoles/controllers are never played.  So should include them if we know them like in the case of Halo Reach.

I assume as the other areas (remember they said 8) new tabs will appear.


Oh great then! I do believe that the UK deserves to be alone now as it is on par with Japan. Probably EU, ME and Africa, Asia, Australia +NewZealand, Americas?

That sounds 'bout right.

Nice to see the UK chart finally! What is interesting about that is if you look PS3 has sold as much in Japan as 360 has sold in the UK. That alone shows that either a UK chart was needed or the Japan one should of been removed.

I bought BioShock 2 last Black Friday and haven't played it yet.  Should we not count that as a sale?  Or what if only 80% of people who bought the PS3 bundle with Uncharted 2 or 3 in it actually played it?  What if they just wanted a blue ray player?  Should we take 20% off of the sales for Uncharted because of that?  The code you get to download a game is a unique code.  People sell codes on ebay ALL the time because they ARE worth something.  In the case of this, they are worth a Halo Reach game. 



BOOM!  FACE KICK!

Do we have any info on South Korea? For instance, the Starcraft 2 sales would more than double if we included them. So I know SK is big into PC gaming... how about consoles?

But they are sold copies while Halo reach sales are digital sales in the bundle also VGChartz doesn't track digital sales.  Sure you can add those digital sales (like 50.000) but if the digital sales before the bundle were already +200.000 the % in accuracy will be very low...Better to not count them then..

The rest of the World disappears when it doesn't favor the little Box.
