VG Charts - Most To-Be-Purchased Titles 2007 (console)

[shams]

Earlier this year, VGChartz members were given a chance to vote for console titles they would purchase this year. Here are the consolidated results with commentary.

Around 90 users voted, with the following restrictions:

1) A maximum of 5 titles could be voted for.
2) Titles were ranked from most wanted (5pts) to 5th-most wanted (1pt).
3) Console titles (360, PS3 & Wii) only considered.
4) Titles should be titles that the voter intends to BUY (not just want).
5) Cross platform titles are not scored by platform, just by title (unless otherwise specified).
6) Titles must be expected to be released (somewhere) in 2007. Not too fussed if titles just miss Xmas, etc. But titles known to be coming next year (or later) are ignored.

Here are the raw results. Each figure represents the vote from one particular user. They are (roughly) ordered in terms of most/least popular (cumulative vote numbers).

(Note that the numbers are slightly different from the original thread. I tried to apply a more consistent rule/reasoning to how I interpreted votes from users, and how some titles are ignored. I could also have made mistakes with the data - if you find any, please PM me or reply and I will correct the data.) 

Following this post, I will list the top-20 titles in various categories - followed by commentary.
