Can I get some links saying that Fallout 3 sold more on PC than consoles?

the only platform where I can have supreme gameplay is on PC.

That depends, of course, on what type of gameplay you're talking about. True for some, false for others.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.

Hang on a sec- apparently NPD don't even track Amazon sales, never mind digital downloads. What exactly is the point of their data, then?

I am sure there are a lot of retailers that NPD does not track. They provide estimates.
