At least it's better than their PC tracking Diablo III 6.3 million week one digital+ retail not including Korea or the 1.2 million for WoW subs.

VGChartz 2.09m week 2...

You have to remember the digital sales for Blizzard is almost 40%.

 

 

That still means that it's undertacked by at least 2 million...

That's not within margin of error.

I believe that it's almost a 300% error as it stands. Could just be very early though.

Vgchartz are undertracked or overtracked on everything.


Of course they re its impossible to track every sold copy. But in most they are very accurate.



god of war ascension 2 million first week



Nice to see the adjustments. GOW: Ascension to be a 6+ million seller?

Well i dont care if vg charts over track or undertrack some games. Its only an indikation of huch much a game sold about. The exact number will be always different. If i know GOD3 sell about 4,5 m than thats fine to me. If it sell 250k more in reality its no thing i am worried about.

At the end of the day i must that vg charts offers o very good in formation of how much a game sell. So thank you vg charts.

i think so. god of war 3 might even hit 6m by the time ascention is out.



Another example Metro 2033 360 + PC 1.5 million

http://www.joystiq.com/2012/06/05/metro-2033-sales-reach-1-5-million/

VGCartz = 0.59m 360 + PC

Somehow I doubt almost a million digital copies, probably ~200k undertracked

Check out my hype threads: Cyberpunk, and The Witcher 3!

In regards to shipments vs. sell through, it's probably safe to assume that shipments=sell through for GOW 1 and 2 by now. Also, holy crap at GOW3 mainland Asia sales. We know it's around 125k-150k in Japan based on MC. So almost 300k in continental Asia.



Proudest Platinums:
1. Gran Turismo 5
2. Persona 4 Arena
3. Wipeout HD
4. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
5. Super Street Fighter 4

No it will be the least selling God of War game on the Playstation 3.

-Because its a Prequel

-Released at the end of a live cycle

-The least critically acclaimed

I say it will sell 3mill copies and an average score of 80-85
