Okay, these are the games I've bought for myself. My son has many more mainstream ones.

Rayman Rabid Rabbids - 1.2
Resident Evil 4 - 1.3
Mercury Meltdown - .03
Dewy's Adven. -.06
Tiger Woods 07 - .75
NiGHTS - .08

Total 3.42/6 = .57/19.45 = .029 x 10 Comes to a total of:

.29 !! Do I win a prize for lowest number?

Since the next games on my to get list are: Laura Croft, Endless Ocean and Zack & Wiki my 'gamer score' should remain pretty low. (.22)

At the moment it looks like you are the anti-sheep(for the Wii at least), alas there is no prize other than the confirmation that in you veins flows the blood of a rebel!!!!!!!!


I think he just pretends to having bought games like Super Mario Galaxy, Twilight Princess and others for his son in order to lower his score!!!

 Well, okay then to be fair let's do it for my son too and then combined.

 SMG - 4.3

LoZ:TP - 4.31

M. Strikers - 1.09

Red Steel - 1.03

Wii Play 8.63

DBZ:BT 2 - .36

Godfather - .08

DBZ:BT3 - .09

GH3 - 1.22

Lego:SW - .57

Mario & Sonic -  2.33

= 24.01 / 11 = 2.18/19.45 = .1122*10 =  1.12

 Now add mine:

Rayman Rabid Rabbids - 1.2
Resident Evil 4 - 1.3
Mercury Meltdown - .03
Dewy's Adven. -.06
Tiger Woods 07 - .75
NiGHTS - .08

Total 3.42/6 = .57/19.45 = .029 x 10 Comes to a total of:  .29 

Added together: 27.43/17 =  1.61/19.45 = .0829*10 = .83 - So there you go, so no complaints now.

W00t. MoH:V wasn't listed with sales. :(

I need to get Wii Play though, will definitely jump me up, and Mario/Sonic. :b



my score 1.25.

i think it's a bit unfairly low though cause i am pretty mainstream in my gaming. zack and wiki and trauma center new blood lowered my score a lot. that and some of my most pop titles (wii play, mario galaxy) are going to sell a ton more in the future and that would raise my score.



obviously this comparison has flaws. Without buying a single game, your number will change, but at a given instance in time it gives us an interesting picture of how "mainstream" your purchases are. Obviously one of the bigger flaws is that if you buy a popular game before it becomes so your score will be lower (M&S, MP8 for examples)




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

I don't know why this thread crossed my mind but it did. Looks like I'm more mainstream now with the Wii, and there really aren't many replies to compare the DS too.

I will never leave you

I know I'm mainstream and I never read the OP by the way as well blar.

How? Well simple - I like good games and quite a few of them have been released.

Guess what I'm mainstream. ^_^



I'm Unamerica and you can too.

The Official Huge Monster Hunter Thread: 



The Hunt Begins 4/20/2010 =D

it would take me ages for mine, i have 32 xbox 360 games, 16 ps3 games and 8 Wii games



I'm almost certain I have more or at least a lot of current gen games over a lot of people here.

I didn't list them all on VGC though.. that would take too much time.

Basically

Wii: Around 47~50 +Wii Sports and Links Xbow training

PS3: Around 9 Now since I bought MGS4

PC: I down load games - not sure if that counts, but their usually mmorpgs.
