| hsrob said: MW2: probably fastest game to 15 million -yeah NSMBWii: probably the fastest single console title to 15 million - yeah Chosing and lauding abitrary achievements, or conversely placing abitrary caveates, is something that is done in the gaming world and on this site on a daily basis. How is this any different? Best selling HD console, fastest selling third placed console, highest selling non-pack in game, best selling version of a game, best selling North America console, best console graphics, fastest selling (handheld) console, good graphics for the Wii etc. Remove all the qualifiers and we are left with PS2, DS, Wii Sports (?) and Crysis, discussion over. If we didn't, as a group, like to focus on the minutiae, the site as is would not exist. |
The difference is that when you're making those minute claims you don't make a thread titled "Valkyria Chronicles becomes the best selling game of the generation" and then say in the thread "Valkyria Chronicles is the best selling HD jRPG of the generation" because I'd lock the thread for being misleading, just as this news title is misleading.
