DivinePaladin said: I'm going to stretch your argument here to a logical conclusion. If I take the top 20, I'm taking the top 20% of a larger sample size. On a system like the PS2, the top 20% is nearly 800 games. On something like the Wii U, the top 20% is like two. (Jokes aside, it's about 150.) I wouldn't even want more than the top 5% of either of those systems because there were SO many terrible shovelware games on both. I know you're reducing sample size to make it easier to choose, but I like the argument even at full scale because it allows people to choose what percent of games they'd want in a real situation. |
Well, I didn't quite consider this if that's how the argument is framed. Obviously I take a literal 20% of a library, but choosing between 20 games and 80, I'll almost always take the 80. Especially as I've purchased well over 100 360, PSP, PS3, PS2, and PC games.
