Wii U 87k
XBO 288k
PS4 348k


I used Xevross's idea of assuming cream created the graph with rounded numbers. He found 2 possibilities that were really close to .0, but Cream's percents only have two decimal places. That gives an incredibly small amount of room to fudge the numbers either way. I ran the numbers and found a third solution that could hide within this margin of error. Since it perfectly matches the other info, here we go! XBO last year must have been calculated wrong.
Now if only you put this effort into your game :P

VaporEck. You're more likely to get struck by lightning while getting laid than ever see this game release.

Originally I planned to hide a few math solutions in VizionEck. You know, solutions to unsolved equations.

However I've scaled those plans back since spending that much work on easter eggs is moronic.

No that started on October 9th with Uncharted's release.

Quote from: Aura7541 on Oct 20, 2015, 07:50 PMI found Forza Horizon 2's NPD numbers on GAF. It sold about 120K last September with 5 days of tracking. That includes both the XBO and 360 versions.

As we already know, Forza 6 sold 195K including bundles with 18 days of tracking. So while Forza 6's numbers are higher, it had nearly 2 more weeks of tracking and Horizon 2 did not get the bundle treatment.
plus Horizon is a spinoff
