Gran Turismo numbers are still severely outdated according to PD database
http://www.polyphony.co.jp/products/

GT5 should be 12M instead of 10.7M
GT6 should be 5.2M instead of 3.5M

Nice catch.

When companies release their numbers it is helpfull to the corrections...

Will be quite hard for most because we only get the NPD, Japan, Gfk and some other extrapolation... although digging through their financials can give some tips.

Another good change would be to have more breakdown of SW sales, by region and date for more weeks.

^ Good question, always liked that feature.

When entering information in the game info section, it makes you put in a developer to upload. But sometimes the developer is not there. So when we spend time checking the Japanese developers site and other links which takes time , we cannot upload any of the ESRB or genre or Japanese names because there is not developer or sometimes publisher listed.
Can you make it where it is not mandatory to put a developer or publisher if it is not in the system?

If it's not in the system, ask Versus to add it in to the database.

Occasionally I miss official voting on VGChartz. Like a contest to see VGChartz GOTY etc, and I bet I'm not the only one that misses the opportunity to weigh in their votes.

I have a suggestion to remedy this below:

I want to add certain Android games, but the developers don't show up. One of them is, for example, Miniclip.

I wanted to make a suggestion that any thread with a mod warning in it have some kind of indicator (like with the icon or by the quick reply window or larger text window) that they dropped a warning so anyone can see it. It's fairly easy to miss a warning when a thread is large. I think it would be a nice preemptive measure. Hopefully, others think it's a good idea.
