Those rough greater than/less than symbols aren't very helpful.

They are if you notice that they step every 5k.

the highest selling game excluding so4 is 25k im sure they are giving themselves less error margin for such low scoring games.

Star Ocean 3: 222,986 units in 30 days in September.
Star Ocean 4: <70,000 units in 5-6 days in February

the first 30 days for so4 look as if it will be 130k. the thing im wondering about though is did npd track 1 day for so3 in august or include i in sept. if they counted it for sep. then the first 30 days would be a fair comparison is 1 days of sales were in august then comparatively speaking oso4 would be lower than 130k

It looks like NPD counted the game as a September release:

lol you don't know what you're talking about.

It's like saying: "Oh the credits in Call of Duty 4 look horrible,the game is crap !"

you need to watch gameplay scenes and not cutscenes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcZESwTXFZ4

Cut scenes are a part of the game for RPG's, a very critical part. You seriously can't distinguish between end game credits and storyline cutscenes? amazing.....
