As you can see, 50% of the top users this month are primarily Xbox 360 gamers.

Is this an anomaly or is it the sign of a long-term trend of increased MS fans on VGChartz?

LET'S PARTY BITCHES!

My prediction threads:

Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)

Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

Halo 4 first 9 weeks sales prediction

PS4 to be down YOY in 2015

By posting in this thread Im giving you some more points to keep you on top which Im sure this is what this thread is about. Lol. All your table shows there are at least 5 confirmed primary Microsoft fans. Need more evidence before a party can kick off properly.

why does the middle hat have a "2" on it... makes me feel insecure that this will turn into a comparison thread between ps3 users who wear hats with "1"s on them!!!!

That asides, this could exactly indicate the opposite of what you are trying to prove, that there are less people on the side of MS which means that the few posters there are for the Xbox360 have a lot more posting to do to defend their system against the Sony and Nintendo fans who can take it in turns and deliberate out the linking of red ring facts and that list of Xbox360 exclusives for next year which they love to post. :D Either way. go you number 1 points earner!

Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

I would really like to see more Xbox threads on the site, if at all possible. I've noticed more people with strong feelings about Microsoft, but I haven't noticed more threads about Microsoft.

seeing as the USA is the main market and has the most users on the site you'd think microsoft fans will grow especially as i see the microsoft brand holding its own next gen,

i'm not sure the microsoft crowd has ever been as tiny as some like to portray but of course it takes time to catch up with Nintendo and Sony as fanbases go but i think they have arrived now on the interwebs
