Interesting results on the PS3 poll, and I am surprised R&C is that low, I expected it to be much higher. Assassin's creed is a bit higher than I would have expected also however.

Unfortunately without random sampling the results are somewhat meaningless since we have to assume their is some amount of selection bias.



To Each Man, Responsibility

You can get the magazine for free in EB Games and other gaming stores, but I've never seen it in general toy/electronics stores.

And the polls are of course from the website.

There's your bias, people who go to gaming stores and gaming sites. I'm sure you would get different answer if you just asked people inside Toys R Us.



AC is a lot higher than I would have expected, especially when compared to the other games

I can read a little Swedish, so I can translate any of those if you're interested, but we'll probably have a native speaker appear sooner or later.



I'm a swede, I just meant that you can't find absolute figures on the polls anywhere on the site.



Well, I thought AC got released on PC aswell?

Its kinda popular with pc in sweden :p



In sweden PC gaming is the overwhelming majority, with the overwhelming majority of that being Counter-Strike. You could probably thank organizations like Ninjas in Pajamas and Shroet-Kommando for that.

Btw, for any swedes on the forums, are Heaton, Potti, Fisker, Ahl or Spawn really well known to the average citizens there?
