 Wow thats a lot of anger.  But for the record this site tracks sales to consumers where as a shipped number is sold to retailers.  And if you could provide a link before you get banned to when MS claimed they sold 10.8 million to consumers that would be great.  Have a nice day =)

Pretty cool. Basically everyone is picking this up except the IGNs and Gamespots... But those guys sucks anyways!



"[Our former customers] are unable to find software which they WANT to play."
"The way to solve this problem lies in how to communicate what kind of games [they CAN play]."

 No offense, but that was pretty lame.



 

 

On her "WebbAlert", Morgan Webb Quotes Kotaku Quoting VGchartz. Sadly, it's the most boring video I've seen in a while from someone I normally find amusing, but you can check gametrailers and the last 15 seconds of it.



See Ya George.

Aussie-Nintendo referred to this site again in their latest feature article

"According to Vgchartz.com, the changeover happened on August 23rd, and this is how it looks;

..... <insert pie diagram> .....

Now these figures are refutable. But well documented sales covered by NPD, Enterbrain and Magic Box, European sales trackers and the like have the machine at very near 10 million machines, and if the changeover hasn’t actually occurred within the last couple of days, it most certainly will in the next 28 days. At a rate of 2.3 machines per 360 sold, it’s more than inevitable, it’s actuality."
