Wii is second after price cut week, so sad

BUT barely! 2k is nothing. I'm not screaming overtracked, because I'm not like that. But all these Sony fanboys screaming statistical tie or whatever seem to have quietened down when they're in the lead

Wii may make first, but more likely to stay second. Depends if PS360 drop after LA Noire, and by how much.


Didn't you learn the rule yet? It applies to every architecture: If your favourite console is first by a whisker, it's first, if it's second by a whisker it's a testicular pie!   

Although there are exceptions to fanboyism that are like a bright light in the obscurity: PC gaming is actually the biggest, but the most undertracked, nevertheless we PC gamers don't scream! Actually we got no time to do it, we must update drivers, fix bugs, get around incompatibilities and Windows quirks, etc to make our games eventually run.   

Speak about yourself ;) I always like to point out how rediculusly undertracked PC games on VGC are ;)

Overall PC gaming is still last compared to console & handheld gaming. Even if it was tracked correctly it still wouldn't make as much as console games do overall. Console game sales have over $100 billion yearly. Now the Witcher 2 is one of the most popular PC games ever and yet compare it's worldwide sales to a new IP like L.A. Noire and it doesn't even come close. Even if you included Steam sale and every online sales it wouldn't come close to what L.A. Noire sold in it's first week. and both of these games aren't even in the popular genre. What's the next HOT PC game coming out. Let's see how the sales do for that game. Only PC games  that seen to sell what are Blizzard games and EA's Sims games. Oh yeah and Valve's FPS.
