how accurate is COMG? Just curious not been following it. So does 150 equate to 150k and what is the typical margin of error?

I haven't followed them too much. But, afaik I haven't seen many titles below 1:600 ratio and above 1:1200

Some titles usually use to be in the 1:800 - 1:900 range. However, those ratios depend on various factors. There might be people in this thread who can explain it better to you.

COMG gives you a good range or estimate of what to expect. As long as you consider the platform and genre of the game, you'll usually be able to get a nice idea of FW sales.

The 1:1000 ratio is typically the middle ground, but there are many considerations that will cause it to flucuate.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

And people worried Bloodborne wouldn't make 150. I called 150-200 a month ago.

Sword Art Online is doing incredbly well. Sales siphoned off by a PS3 version and it's still keeping pace with the last game despite being the third in the series. I remember being very unimpressed by the gameplay I saw of the first game. Has the gameplay improved in the sequels? What's making it sell so much better?
