Forums - Sales - Re: PC sales statistics - are they invalid on VG Chartz?

Hi, I've been looking at a lot of the sales statistics of VG, and find that for many, many games the PC sales figures are zero. This even applies to bestselling games that sell well on every other platform. Are these figures wrong? Is VG unable to access statistics for PC platform games? How accurate/valid are the sales figures on VG generally? Are they better for older games or newer ones?

I would very grateful for any help or information you can give.

Kind regards,

Bernadette.

Vgchartz doesn't track any PC games and won't do so in the future, sorry.



Thanks Aj, could you tell me why they don't track PC platform statistics? And where I could get these figures?

Simply because PC games are the most difficult ones to track. Also, you cannot get them anywhere, except for a top 10 or a top 20 in some countries over the world, but never true numbers.

EDIT : outside of publishers notes ofcourse. but those are always shipped.
