LBP overtracked by 100k last month.

Seriously? I think not...

LittleBigPlanet

VG Chartz - October (Americas) == 144,434

NPD Group - October (Americas) == 215.000

VG Chartz undertracks LittleBigPlanet by 70k last month.

You are wrong.

VGChartz - October America = 314k

Anyways, looking at hiscores is a really inaccurate way to predict sales unless you have a good methodology like mrstickball.

I hope Cod5 doesnt end up selling better than Resistance 2..

I cant imagine it not. COD4 put the series in the Elite games catagory, and R2 just aint up there.

R2 is a much better game than COD4..

Quality seldom puts up a strong fight agains name recognition. Im not saying R2 is bad by my statment, I just feel that after COD4 its in the category of games like GTA, Mario,Halo and the sort.

Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

@Leo-J

MGS4 is a better game than GTA 4 & Nintendogs

PS3 launched at a price where every single console failed,.......yet lived to tell the tale

i.e. Brand matters!

Well, mrstickball is tracking the 360 version to do about 500k-600k first week. So realistically you're looking at around 3/5th that for the PS3 SKU. Which is 300k-350k. Maybe 400k, but I don't think above 500k unless mrstickball is really off.
