Ohh yeah, after checking the "new" preorder numbers, I think it's safe to say, VGC have no idea what the numbers really are :D and all this is wild speculation.

I think that has been safe to say for a long time. The preorder numbers can jump up and down by huge amounts, and then when the game comes out VGC numbers bear little resemblance to the preorder numbers. Then NPD/Nintendo/shipment/etc numbers come out and differ from VGC numbers. It really makes any discussion based on weekly preorder numbers utterly pointless.

Yeah you're probably right (I think you always are 0_0), I've seen preorder numbers higher than FW sales for the game by quite a margin, but never have I seen such huge, how should I call them "corrections" (if they are correct) guess I'm not on the site long enough :D

So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

Meh, the amount of AAA pre-orders do not look pretty good in comparison to their predecessors.... maybe too many games in a too short time.

When you think my english is bad...sorry for my bad english, i'm from Germany. And yeees, sorry, that we've almost destroyed the whole world, blahblahblah

Well there goes Watch Dogs' lead and almost BF4's over COD next gen. Though I suppose the MP reveal could have spiked it as well. Kinda weird 360 is so far ahead on GTA5.

Amazing adjustements, GTA V will be a monster.

And in this article vgchartz says that ps4 have 600k pre orders and xbox one 350k in USA....
http://www.vgchartz.com/article/251266/ps4-vs-xbox-one-pre-order-totals-to-august-24th-2013/

It's still the same ratio at e3...., 63% ps4 - 37% X1.

edit: And Killzone Shadow Fall is more preordered than Ryse, Dead Rising 3 and Forza 5 combined..... HUGE

Interesting facts after adjustments.

It doesn't look that bad for XOne.

For the established multiplat-cross-gen-franchises, the pre-ordered versions show following pattern:
360 > PS4 > PS3 > XB1

Which I think is crazy, that the PS4 versions are "out-preordering" the PS3 ones.

Next-gen numbers are indeed very high, I wonder if they aren't overtracked now.

Game of the year 2017 so far:

5. Resident Evil VII
4. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
3. Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
2. Horizon Zero Dawn
1. Super Mario Odyssey

Holy sheeet Killzone 220K with 12 weeks to launch?! Killzone 3 had 170k pre orders at launch! Damn I'm expecting Killzone to do 5M life time.

Can they seriously just remove The Last Guardian from there?
It's the COMG version of FFvsXIII, it has no point in being here.
They finally updated the COD pre-orders and GTAV will be humongous.
