only now i get it

4-3 days ago the seles caunter in the site was like that:

XBOX 360: 21.31m

PS3: 15.77m

and this week seles was 60K for the PS3 in others and 60K 360 in others

(thay dont have usa and *** seles yet)

and now the conter is like this:

XBOX 360: 21.35m

PS3: 15.84m

WTF?! how dos the 360 sold less then the PS3 if both are sold 60K?

even that the 360 sold in the last 2 munth 2X better then the PS3 ,in the site i always see that the PS3 numbers is grow larger then the 360.

That's because (I believe) vgchartz updates its numbers more often. Plus, you know NPD doesn't take into account retailers like Walmart right?

We know that.

Even NPD isn't that accurate, and doesn't include Download titles.

NPD isn't even that accurate. They don't take sales from Walmart and online sales.

The fact that at E3 it was announced that the PS3 was less then 4 mill behind the 360 makes VG Chartz BS.

Provide a better alternative with more accurate numbers and then complain.

Or would you prefer a certain analyst who is totally wrong with his predictions every month?

It's VG Chartz, using it pretty much guarantees a fail.
