while what you say is true, it would be rude to a new member. Now since you seem to have been a diligent lurker before you started posting, if you start a thread like this I'll call you an idiot and lock it

 

Are you trying to tempt me into doing that? And you wouldn't even give me a magic explanation 

"A diligent lurker", eh? *Googles to check for insults*

One other thing, isn't it a bit odd that the OP has a welcome from before he posted anything? It would be understandable if the "welcomer" had greeted several, but he only greeted this profile.

 

while it is odd, I have welcomed a lot of people who never posted before. Mostly by seeing a comment on a game wall/news item, or them owning the game.

While it does raise suspicions, it doesn't prove anything, and I really don't care to do a true check to see if this is an alt.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

That is because the PS3 is selling a higher share of the weekly totals than its current market share in total. The Wii has to sell over 48.7% each week for the market share to increase, while the PS3 only has to sell over 21.8% of the weekly total to increase market share.

(note this is just an explanation for anyone who reads this post)

Last week it show the 360 with 30.24 units sold and now it showing 30.20. is it a countdown or the site getting the wrong info or the web site is anti 360?

 

Welcome to the site, just so you know, the data does get adjusted from time to time when the mods believe they've either overtracked or undertracked a console
