I always have to laugh when I hear a console's average tie ratio...

Having over 70 games (Less than last gen though atm) this gen will do that

1 free from Sony (actually a downloaded LBP)
7 bought used off of Ebay.
3 bought new. (2 for $20 and 1 for $50)

While I'm greater than the current ratio overall, only three have been me actually giving some money to Sony.

Doesn't matter - someone had to buy them in the first place for you to get them on ebay.

PS. I have 25 retail games + 10-15 which i bought and then sold.

True, but I was looking at it as what money I personally gave to Sony.

When you hear some people having 70 games, makes you realise the amount of people out there that must rent.

That's a good attach ratio, PS2's looks like it's at 10. 9.9 exactly.

Interesting numbers. I tried to figure out how many copies the average PS3 game has sold, but my calculator won't let me divide 0 by 568,100,000.

Wow, original joke. Ill have you know that I have over NINE ps3 games. Taledaga Nights, The dark Knight returns, Metal Gear solid and the entire Harry potter collection.

It's funny cuz at least one of those is a movie. HAHAHA.

Ill have you know metal gear solid 4 provides minutes of exciting gameplay! Thats more 1,2 and 3 combined.

Time for hype

That's a nice number, but how much of that can be credited to first party games?

For me... 1 free, 1 new retail ($20), 2 used ebay.

So, 4 out of 15.

However, is that an overall benefit to Sony or not? One of the biggest criticism against Nintendo is that their software destroys everyone else. However, I know that if the 3rd party games I bought on Ps3 were available on Wii, I wouldn't own a PS3.
