Id love to know how they measure these "Statistics"

 

I would too.  I mean this can't be an accurate "science" as the saying goes so I would love to know how they get these percents.  Just seems so difficult to get something even in the ballpark for this.

I mean if they used a survey then I don't even care what these numbers say but maybe there is more to it than that.

I own both PS3 and 360.

My personal usage:

80% = Xbox 360.
20% = PS3.


Looking at the chart, it seems there is a lot of people like me.

 

I'm on the same page as you.

I wouldn't go that far. Clearly lots of companies think surveys are worthy otherwise these market-research firms would have already disappeared.
