Graphs showing pre-order intent for the top ten games available at the respective sources.

I'm not someone who trusts polling a lot, but these lists don't seemed entirely farfetched (though I'm still confused by the high rankings of the Wolverine games. Maybe I underestimated the appeal, idk. I also find the absence of The Conduit on the Wii list interesting). It'll be interesting to see how this changes after E3.

Hear that Twesterm? Sony and Wii fans want your game equally whilst Xbox 360 fans think more highly of other games. Change your bias already, you should know your target audiences are Wii and PS3 fans.

You can help improve you reputation by banning me.



Tease.

Is this not an old list, and a list that applies to a fairly small amount of American people?

Done!

I guess you can be unbanned now...

It's not that old---it was released a little less than a week ago on Gamasutra, and the older lists didn't show the top 20.

They polled 1000 people, which is a big enough sample size to extrapolate data from. But no polling is perfect, so we'll see how this list stands up to the sales of these games.

LOL at the Squil ban

Not surprising to see 360 and ODST.

Surprised to see Uncharted 2 so far down PS3 list.
