Vgchartz.com shows video game sales charts!

The numbers are not made up. They are very accurate.

I'm waiting to see what Bioshock sells in it's first week, 750,000 copies?

Sorry man, but it really isnt. Hardware sales often dont move months at a time, while vgcharts is telling you that they update hardware sales every day (which is pretty much impossible anyway). VGCharts always updates after the NPD numbers come out.

The only good sales figures are from NPD for America and Media Create for Japan. Even those dont take into account a lot of internet sales etc, simply because its impossible for them to monitor everything.
Then you have company announcements from Microsoft, Nintendo and Sony that probably all lie about their sales.

I'm talking about the game sales figures. The website says they get info from the retailers and they say it's very accurate, is this untrue?

Anyways, if it isn't accurate please give me a link to some other websites I can look at. I'm interested in this topic.

Gah! Too much waiting to see how much Bioshock sold in it's first week, maybe 750,000 copies?
