How to Make friends In Dark Souls 3

Pineapple on 12 January 2013

Oooh, yay! That's the second year in a row I've won the initial scores. The ones directly after week 10 is out, that is.

It's still perfectly possible that non-gravity, jadas, or possibly even SaviorX, will take the win after all the numbers have been adjusted, though.

It's very interesting to see how little really differs between the top. Excluding the Ps3, non-Gravity is 1 point ahead of me. And, excluding the X360, jadaskiss ends up beating me with 44 point, and non-gravity beats me with 12 points.

Other notes:

- Superchunk is the only one to win two individual weeks

- Every single one of us, except for Robotech, over-estimated the Ps3. It sold 4248k, and only he predicted lower (3890k). The closest for the total was Superchunk, with 4450k.

- Every single one of us over-estimated the X360. It sold 4360k, and the lowest prediction for the total was Classicgaming, with 4580k, in front of Superchunk with 4630k.

- We were pretty decent on the Wii, but slightly on the high side. It sold 1760k overall, and the closest prediction was SaviorX with 1790k.

-  Everybody, barring 3 people, over-estimated the 3DS.

- We heavily over-estimated the Vita. It did 1120k, the best prediction was Superchunk with 1135k.

 

Overall, this is the year everybody was too optimistic.

Well 13th is not that bad... funny like every year .

Thanks @non-gravity



non-gravity on 02 March 2013

I've taken a look at adjustments.

Wii and 3DS are up for all weeks and week 10 has adjustments for all consoles.

Results aren't significantly different that I want to publish them right now. Perhaps later in the year.
