All of the above is false, I'm sorry to say.

If you work out the numbers based on the sales profile of each console, you find that the average 360 gets a game bought for it every two-and-a-bit months. And the number is the same for the PS3, and for the Wii.

Which all goes to show that - on average - game-buying habits are more constrained by the cash available than by the quality or availability of games for whatever platform it is.

The difference between the consoles is almost solely down to MS's head start - that and a tiny bit of random fluctuation.

Which isn't even important enough to write a post about except so many people read too much into the raw.
