I think they wouldn't mention numbers even if they were only 1M behind. Being second isn't a great look no matter the size of the gap.

So,~35/36 million by the end of the year?...very impressive,and imagine next year, with an amazing lineup and a possible $299 price..

It makes more sense to believe it's overtracked. 0.5-1m. VGC US ratio for the One has been too low for about a year. Look at Halo week, US is only 50%? Sure. That doesn't even agree closely with the SW rate. Last year's misleading and vague 10M shipped "announcement" threw the math off and the inaccuracy in EU+ROW numbers has been building up for an entire year, little by little. Not that we'll know for sure due to lack of numbers for MS.. But this is the end of the year, we will see some things that could be evidence of that, as Sony national divisions across EU and maybe some Asian countries once again tell us some numbers like they did these last 2 years. This isn't the 360. It doesn't sell as much in mainland EU (or more) as it does in the UK, which is what VGC has. Speaking of which, it has it 2M in the UK on VGC but no announcement from the usual UK report about that.. Doesn't mean it didn't happen but it does make you wonder.

You don't understand.  If they did their own and only their own tracking they'd be miles off.  They are only close because they have an accurate graph of official numbers dating back since the consoles launched.  It's not hard to get within 10% when you have a general idea of where official sales are going.  

Again I appreciate the effort and wouldn't want this site gone.  I love it and I love the fact the numbers end up largely correct.  You just have to give the official numbers their due credit.  

For example every week we get media create numbers.  Vgchartz is 100% accurate for Japan sales always because they use they're trackers for numbers.  Nothing wrong with that but it's not to be credited to them. 

Ha ha ha.

Congratulation sony!!

Uhhh but with the way Halo 5 underperformed. The idea that Xone is overtracked is becoming stronger. After all franchise health depends on userbase.

Too bad there is no games, except Bloodsouls.

Im astonished 

Seriously? 

Can you not differenitate between the two? There is a difference between me saying "X has sold Y units today" and "X could potentially sell Y units by Z".

In fact I even said in the post you quoted me (Which you edited out)- 

If I do post something that it isn't from a trusted source then it is most likely a forecast or an opinion peice. But I don't post estimates by myself. The only time I've done this in the past is for Xbox One shipment numbers but I've stopped doing that now because Microsoft refuse to update us on numbers. 

It's fairly clear in my last post I'm saying that the PS4 sold through 4.1 million between November 23rd 2014 and January 4th 2015. The 30.2m number is as of November 22nd 2015 so if the console sells the same or more than 4.1 million then it could potentially end up with over 34 million units. 

This isn't me making numbers up or guessing at something. It's just showing how the console performed last year and using that to show where it could potentially (as a forecast) end up this year. 

I may have to retract my statement where I said I don't take offense because you do seem to be attacking me for no reason at all and using very weak arguments, not to mention outright lying. 

Anyway, you asked for a website from me. So here it is- https://zhugeex.com/
