Yes. Yes I would. My question was actually meant rhetorically, because the two userbases do have different buying habits.

So following that line of thought, World of Warcraft reaching a record number of 11.5 million players is a less relevant statistic than noting that it reached 10 million PC users?  Talking about a game's overall success somehow diminishes or insults the individual platforms it's available on?

I think the context is key...  I've never seen an article talking about the success of World of Warcraft, that bothers with how many players it has on a given platform.

I'm not playing down the relevance of statistics, only pointing out that the two userbases have different buying habits. Not to take away from the sales of multiplat games or anything.
