Does this include digital sales? UK sale charts don't seem to take digital sales into consideration.

 

[BSDShoes]

VGChartz does not count digital sales.

Yea, publishers are much more tight lipped on digital sales numbers.

 

[SHGTP]

A. VGChartz is entirely made up (sometimes they go back and alter with real numbers later).

B. This is way out of date.

For example GT Sport sold over 100K in the UK last week (Black Friday) and has a retail total over 250K. With digital it's likely to be closer to 350K-400K.

 

[HellzFire]

Yeah, vgchartz is not a very trustful source.

PD generally give numbers over time, i'd wait for that.

 

[CConspicuous]

I'm pretty sure VGChartz also accepts money to influence data numbers and scores, much like IGN.

GT Sport Actual Sales Numbers

"Actual"...

SP Cracked Butthole:

I don't even know where to start with this.

"Actual"...

I don't even know where to start with this.

This is clickbaiting. the real sales numbers should be released by PD, and not a third party that is doing "research."

Admit it, it was funny ​

Total and complete rubbish. VGchartz are not to be trusted under any circumstances. UK sales that week were 100,000 not including downloads.

VG charts is reliable based on the sources it has, speaking beyond that is deceptive at best . People use it wrong and thus it gets a bad wrap.

VGchartz have even openly admitted that they run estimates, also, ask anyone working inside a game publisher what VGchartz REALLY does for them...

Maybe when he said ‘actual’ he meant to say ‘current’.

So “here are some current, bollocks completely made up sales figures”.

Just a theory.

 

[MisterWaffles]

VG charts is a cracked butthole...

 

[ElementRacer]

What is sp cracked butthole referring to?

 

[ChevapBH]

What is sp cracked butthole referring to?

South Park? lol Anyway, they pretty much guess the numbers and correct them later when the official data is released by publishers.

Again its just a tool, it's not the defacto sales numbers. Trying to present them as that is deceptive .

Um you don't see that you are doing exactly what you are accusing them off and dismissing them over.
