| MontanaHatchet said: 360 fans have always been underrepresented on the site. I think consistently being in 2nd place has just created a kind of "middle child" mentality for 360 owners. The Wii, due to its success, is obligated respect and its fans are more easily able to throw around their weight in an argument. The PS3, being in 3rd place since early in the generation, has been fighting a constant uphill battle against (at times) sluggish sales figures and lost exclusives. As such, its fans are accustomed to being assertive and sticking up for their opinions to make up for being in a weaker position. 360 fans are stuck in an odd sort of position however. They don't have the gravity or bragging rights of Wii owners, but they aren't as pressured to stick up for their console as PS3 owners. As such, it's easy for the 360 community to develop a sort of apathy and get overwhelmed by the opinions of the Wii/PS3 camps. Additionally, there are a lot of other communities with large amount of 360 fans, which reduces Vgchartz's potential pool of 360-favorable members. |
Currently only 11% of the VGChartz userbase are Microsoft fans, compared to 49% and 36% for Nintendo and Sony fans respectively.








My prediction threads:
Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)
PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)
Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right
