The thing is this is Xbox vs Playstation that excludes abbreviations.

Most people type PS4 not Playstation 4. PS4 isn't included if your are searching for trends for Playstation. Xbox doesn't have a standard abbreviation everyone says Xbox. That's what makes this so stupid. During E3 people were typing ____ on PS4, PS4 exclusive, and more. This is why Playstation didn't get a bump, because everyone was using PS4 as the headline.

It's a shame that people are taking this seriously.

The term "PS4" had a huge boost, which is how we know it wasn't included.

I brought this to light yesterday and everybody seemed to brush it under the rug.

Here are the results from topsy (a site designed to keep track of tweets).  Isn't this...interesting:
