FFS, dont pull stuff out of nowhere without anything more than your own anecdotal evidence. I suspect ioi knows slightly more about the figures in Europe than you do.

Jesus, stop it already. At least half your posts are nothing more than complaining about "inaccurate" numbers (when in fact VGChartz, NPD, Media Create, Enterbrain and whoever else in the business all have margins of error):

You should know the drill by now - you have an issue, bring it up via PM. Not that anything will be done if you have no further proof apart from your typical spouting and whining.
@ Diomedes1976
According to SCEE, they already sold-through 1.2 million units in their territories since a couple of weeks ago. This does not include Sony's sales outside of SCEE, SCEA and Sony Japan covered areas.
I trust SCEE on this one as they have access to the most complete and accurate data for a huge amount of countries which are near impossible to track for 3rd parties, let alone a non-commercial service like VGChartz.
My numbers show VGChartz at 1.17 million over that period...thats pretty close guys. Its a 2.5% difference.

Where, in your local shop? As I said in another post:
Maybe that's the case in Spain, but not necessarily everywhere in Europe. In Denmark, the starter pack was accompanied by a price drop, and the starter pack is also available in Norway and Sweden. Despite all of that, there hasn't been a single week in the past month during which the PS3 outsold the 360 in Scandinavia...
Your posts would sound so much more reasonable if you actually put any thinking into them. For example, find out and tell us in which countries the starter pack is available, and try to find some news about it. If you do that and you're right, you might actually convince someone instead of looking like a crybaby?
EDIT - I just noticed the numbers are 28k for this week and 25k for last week, so what's your point?

Why take the low road NJ5 and go to flaming users by calling them a crybaby because they happen to have a legitimate concern? The numbers are close, and in fact are probably within the margin of error for this site that the PS3 could actually be above 4 million. With how hard it is to get solid numbers in some areas, there could be many that are missed, no matter how good of a job ioi and the others do here.
if it's only 5k away, that is very very close and it counts for me. Congrats Sony, keep on churning them out!

ioi said: Because if you look at Diomedes post history he does nothing but complain time and again about the numbers on the site. Having said that, we are due some adjustments tonight as I get some more data and PS3 will be going up a bit more in Europe - so it likely will just cross 4 million. |
Watch out for Diomedes's head exploding when he realizes vgchartz is not biased against the PS3..
PS: Thank you for making my 4th prediction come true...

You say 'fanboyS', so you need at least one more person to do it before your 4th prediction is true :D |
Even if that's the case, with all the people posting threads about Sony's shipped numbers, I'd say it already happened... ;)
Maybe I should start posting this kind of predictions a lot, they may become self-defeating prophecies which will increase the quality of the discussion here...
