Don't the two userbases have different buying habits?

I don't think they do. Not that much that it really matters, anyway. All you need to do is look at the top selling games on each console.

In the top 5 selling 360 games, all of them involve killing people. The same goes for the PS3.

Both of them sell RPG's really well, of Western and Japanese varieties.

Both sell racing and sports games pretty much the same...

Now, if we compare either PS3 and/or 360 to the Wii... THAT'S where i think we see the different buying habits, on a whole new level.

Isn't that something of a gross oversimplification?

How so? It shows the buying habits fair enough.

3 of the games in each list are Call of Duty games. One of the games in each list is a Grand Theft Auto. The others are an exclusive FPS and an exclusive TPS.

If we expand it to the top 15...

The 360 has 8 games that involve shooting people. 2 that involve assassinating people. A music game, a racing game, a platformer and 2 RPG's.

The PS3 has 8 games that involve shooting people. 2 that involves assassinating people, 2 racing games ,a platformer, an RPG and a football game.

Things still look pretty similar to me. Now if i compared those lists to the Wii... Things would be a lot different.
