but I live in the Netherlands and I'm sure the week here ends sunday :P, you might be right about the saturday in the UK though.. but it still is a little strange, but that's why i said 'gaming-weeks', cause maybe these weeks we talk about are in some countries not parallel to their official calender weeks if you know what I mean (like the fiscal year is not parallel to the calender year)

If you live in Netherlands, you must be true, but i confirm you that gfk in Netherlands track games form friday to thursday.

hmmm... so they track a week that is different from the calender week, that's for sure.................................. anyway, I do appreciate it that you post this here for us.. :)

Hi

i'm still confused with Norway, as they still link on VG homepage to week (15)17, but if i'm not wrong they published the result for week 16 : http://www.vg.no/spill/topp20konsoll.hbs?liste=2&uke=18&aar=2008

You are right, they published norway charts for week 16 more soon as usual.

Edit: In fact, they are not published, but when we use the true link of week 16 (uke 18), it already works. For the moment, these charts are hidden for all bodies who didn't know the magic link which allows to see the week we want (if i want to see uke 5 with this link, it works), because the link by default give charts for week 15 (uke 17).

So, Norway charts:

Nice find. If you look at the platforms listed after the game they are listed in order of sales, so you should include that with the Norway charts too. We can see PS3 usually outsells 360 version, but this week 360 Assassin's Creed & Viking: Battle For Asgard outsold the PS3 versions.

Charts start uke 10, 2005. Charts don't look too much different to how they'll be looking next few months. MGS3, GTA: SA, and GT4 at the top of the charts.

I don't think it's that. If you see the precedents week for assassin's creed, you always see the same order, and assassin's creed was recently available on pc. So, no, the order has nothing to see with the order of sales.
