Absolute trash source.

No Silksong in the top 20

[–] Goodeye8@piefed.social 1 points 3 days ago

I'm not sure how that's relevant. I even considered the possibility of them ordering the list based on revenue instead of units sold but even then it doesn't make sense that there's no Silksong in the top 20. One of the most anticipated title of the year in its release month makes less revenue than RDR2? And it doesn't explain any other anomalies, like Helldivers 2, which has been out for over a year, selling better than Snake Eater, which is considered one the best MGS titles?

I'm not calling them liars but I do think their data is incomplete.
