Hello again Jay.  I'll keep my critique of this as short as possible:

 

1. I too question your inclusion of digital sales into this.  I see you justified it by saying "if we know digital sales, why not?"  Well, a whole load of reasons why not.  But anyway, if we're including digital sales then I presume you searched every single game in every single one of these series on google to check if there was any digital sales data for them.  Failing that, I'd hope that you checked PSN/XBL to see how many ratings each game had and added this number to the total.

(I am joking, of course.  But I'm just trying to demonstrate what a can of worms you can open by including digital sales while using numbers from a site that tracks only physical sales.  One or the other would be what I'd suggest, but it's your call)

 

2. Souls isn't a WRPG series.  It's made in Japan.  It's a JRPG if anything.

 

3. Your F1 number for PS3 is wrong.  You've got it at 3.13m, but the figure should be 3.74m, you're forgetting Formula One Championship Edition (I only know this game because Psygnosis developed it, to be fair).

 

4.  The two PS3 SOCOM games have sold more than the Army of Two series (for this week at least :P)

 

5.  The Atelier games for PS3 have sold more than Disgaea.

 

5.  You're forgetting Civilization Revolution for both PS3 & 360 'strategy' lists.

 

6.  Also, what would you class "The Sims" series as?  I'd consider it a strategy.  And if you did too, then it would make revisions to all three of these lists.

 

7.  Finally, if I'm being really fussy, I think it would be a good idea to include how many games are counted towards each of these numbers.  You know, so when you see the difference between say - C&C on 360 and on PS3, you realise it's because it's 1 game vs. 3.  But that's probably too much work.

 

Nevertheless, quite a good effort.
