I love when people don't look anything up and post nonsense. |

Don't gaming folk use Google? How the heck can Yahoo have so many more results than Google?
Interesting stuff, but to get an accurate picture you'd need to factor in one is the total for a game with lots of pre-release hype plus years on sale vs a game with lots of pre-release hype and a few days on sale - i.e. this data is not normalized in any way and is just the usual stuff flung back and forth between fanboys.

I was surprised by the huge Yahoo numbers aswell.
That post was in response to the statement: "Halo 3 is nothing but a blip on the internet radar compared to the hype titan Killzone 2." It may not be perfectly accurate, but it certainly proved a point.
