Forums - Sales - What is up with USA Numbers?

Gamer4eva on 22 March 2008

Looking back at NPD for the last couple of months it would seem that the PS3 outsold the 360 for two months straight, but on VGCHARTZ it is the other way round. Now i thought that NPD was more accurate than VGCHARTZ and this site is all about getting the numbers right. So why is it that the numbers still haven't been corrected. Anyone?

VG chartz included Canada in the numbers, thats where Ps3 probably falters

I dunno what you're talking about. VGchartz has been showing weekly that the PS3 has been outselling the 360 for the past two months. The 360 edged it out this week it looks like though.



You can find me on facebook as Markus Van Rijn, if you friend me just mention you're from VGchartz and who you are here.

@The_vaga

It seems he is correct, according to vgchartz, the PS3 has been outsold by the Xbox 360 for the past month or so.

 you got that number from where?

Both bestbuy and Futureshop show PS3 outsold 360 to around 1.3:1 (average 33 PS3 vs 27 xbox per store) last month

See this is exactly my point, i think it is time for a change of numbers.

He did change it, he put the 360 ahead of the ps3, why do you think the PS3 numbers dropped?

 I really don't even care about changing the numbers anymore.

 It's been 2 months. or 8 weeks (in VGC's term), it's time to get it right for once.

Yh, are the mods super fanboys or something? The facts are right infront of them but yet they pull excuses out of their asses. Sorry for being harsh but i am telling it how it is.



leo-j on 22 March 2008

The mods have nothing to do with the numbers.
