| JEMC said: Only 30 points for a console that is about to launch is, and I'm sorry to put it this way, pathetic. I'm sure the dying (or so they say) PC has a lot more points than that! |
Actually, the 30 points includes 360 votes. We still have a Fable game on the way for that platform.
As for the PC, it isn't doing that much better than the Xbox. But considering this site's inability to track PC games on a regular basis and the much smaller size of the PC forum compared to the Nintendo, PlayStation, and even Xbox forums, that's to be expected.
As late as Janurary's vote (the closest file I can find at the moment), the 360 alone was doing better than the PlayStation portables combined and almost as well as the Nintendo systems. Xbox has never been a strong brand on VGCartz, but it never became outright WEAK until after the release of games like Bioshock Infinite, Gears of War: Judgement, and Tomb Raider. Even though E3 only provided a temporary boost (though numbers are still better than for April and May), at least it proved to me that Xbox fans are still around here somewhere. They just don't seem to be good at representing themselves.
