I haven't checked out Amazon/NPD threads for a while. Are the Amazon charts still accurate at picking the top seller?

So far it's had a perfect track record this gen for hardware. I think there was one month that at first glance gave an incorrect prediction, but once pre-orders from previous months were taken into account it vindicated Amazon.

As for software, Amazon is much less accurate at predicting the winner.

Thank you sir.

Saves me going through old threads :D

Quite impressive that Zelda a port for Wii U is fifth, imagine what the real Wii U Zelda exclusive game will do, shows u Wii U players are hardcore bunch.

Thats a great idea, if they make the box with a super cute design i bet all the kids will be pulling their parents arms to buy one of those for the holidays.

So the COD bundle and the Fools edition are both sold out? That's weird. Any idea on when restocks happen. Are they making room for a E3 slim?

This game is a steal at $40 and people like you who stop buying games because some person on a forum made you change mind shouldn't cry when Sony stops funding games like Ratchet.

A guy on Gaf said 5h and all the other people said 12/15h and he believes in gaf guy wich said LOOL the bias is strong, dont feed him.

Peace.

I also don't see a big difference between 5+ hours for a speed run and 8+hrs for a speed run. Demons souls speed run can be done in an hour (or is it two?). God of War speed runs are routinely under 5 hrs. The only length problem is for games where there's basically nothing but the speed run and the only way the game takes any longer is if you faff around or you die a lot. Given there's side missions and collectible quests then no one should look at a speed run of 5+hrs and be put off the game.
