Quote from: Raven on Feb 01, 2017, 07:43 AMYeah. At one point he refused to believe the numbers Sony was reporting because, he claimed, the numbers didn't add up. What he really meant was that his guesstimates were off, that PS4 was doing better than he predicted, and he didn't like it. He actually refused to update the numbers based on Sony's announcement for quite awhile and got called out for actively showing bias against Sony. Instead of updating the numbers and reporting on them as they came in based on official sources, he was starting to become selective about what he would accept. Essentially wrecking what little legitimacy his website had left as a videogame sales figures site. VGC was a laughing stock before that. That one moment solidified it being unreliable.
When he said the numbers didn't add up I made a thread with all official data from countries where the numbers are ahead what VGC shows (UK, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Italy etc)... he stopped to reply to me after that and changed my thread title.

He has PS4 at 49m right now... that is ridiculous.

Having a go at VGC numbers for under tracking PS4 is a very old, broken record. For the last ~ year and a half its been constantly over tracked and has had many downwards adjustments when Sony gives new numbers. He was bad in the past but has kept with official numbers very well recently. I never use them for the weekly numbers, I like to look back once they've been adjusted properly. I like the graphs :D

That 49m is as of November 26th, which is in line with Sony saying 50m as of just over a week later. He's just way behind on time.

It could be. I check back every now and then and it seems like, for a long time, the numbers freeze and then he updates a couple of months in one go and then that repeats.

I don't really care tbh, I don't read the forum there anymore at all. I only use it for charts and graphs of older numbers.

not so much buggy (imo) as a ridiculous amount and length of loading screens.  it really killed the story mode for me.  

also it just lacked the charm of 1 and 2.  it wasn't developed by MM and you could really tell.

i never played much of the community levels.

Forgot to sign up actually. Maybe there is a website like the scars website for honor had. I got my code that way.

If you find an extra second code, let me know. That game looks like it has some potential

What are your thoughts on the game?
