epic fail bud vgc has the latest and best numbers available

sorry kirby but theres no epic fail involved at all, it was a simple question regarding numbers that i seen in the latest GAME catalogue

i use vgchartz the most and i trust thier numbers, if the real numbers are over 5 million then thats great. still no harm in asking a question is there

Nope, then only way you'll get a solid answer if to ask ioi though, I suggest linking this thread on his wall.

I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

i just got my xmas GAME catalogue in the post today

as one of the xbox exclusives for xmas they have gears of war 2 on 1 page, they quote "the sequel to the 4.4 million selling game"

which would leave gears of war 1 realistically at around 880k discrepency?

does anyone else have the xmas GAME catalougue its in the 360 section.

You are really clutching at straws now, I think you should sell your 360, you really don't deserve to have one.

Are you REALLY 32?????? :|

Lies.

And btw hows valkyria Chronicles?

"Currently playing: Siren Blood Curse, LittleBigPlanet, Valkyria Chronicles"

Was gonna grab that one and LBP real soon.

valkyria chronicles is the best rpg ive played so far, its simply astonishing how they have done it.

its so unique that u cant fit it into any genre really

great grafix great sound and great gameplay, this game will last u a long time, the visuals alone are just compelling.

i hope for a 360 port because 360 owners dont know what they are missing out on, its bloody brilliant

I'm planning on picking this game up too, I didn't really know anything about it until the review and demo came out, but this game is right up my alley, I've played the demo skirmish like 5 times now. Glad to hear it's a great game.

The fifth post in this thread provided a link that confirms sales of GoW are over 5 million. So you don't believe VGChartz. You don't believe MS' sales numbers? You don't believe in following links that answer the very question you posed, but you believe the latest GAME catalogue? Why ask a question if you aren't willing to accept the answer?

EDIT: Yes Valkyria Chronicles does kick ass. Anyone that picks up Eternal Sonata instead of VC should be kicked in the scrotum with a steel tooled boot. I was glad to see Sega churn out a top notch and unique RPG and hopefully they will use VC's engine for a new Skies of Arcadia. I mean Vyse, Aika, and Fina are in Valkyria Chronicles after all
