SF IV and RE 5 are going to be legion.



I thought .co stood for commerce like .com,

I noticed that nobody talked about Fable 2 ever while the internet went insane about LBP and Resistence 2. 8 p co op, 2 campaigns etc. Yet Fable 2 outsold them both quietly.



2Halo wars is split between 2 skus almost in half evenly. It would be hard to measure it accurately if its not combined. That's why multiple Xbox 360 skus are always at the bottom of amazons list but it regularly outsells the ps3 in real life.

I have noticed over the last few months that in the Pre-order charts,  PS3 games are always on top with more pre-orders but when it comes to real sales figures the Xbox 360 outsell it by nearly 2 to 1.  Anyone else noticed this lately?.

Maybe becouse price diffrence makes x360 more popular in mainstream but preorders are mostly done by hardcore gamers ?

Can somebody tell me why uk sites have the .co before them? Something I've been wondering about.

It stands for company, not country. Lots of countries follow the standard .co.[country initials].

That's why you get amazon.co.uk, amazon.co.jp, etc.

There is also .org.uk for organisations, .ac.uk for academic institutions, .gov.uk for government sites, etc.

Thanks man!  Silly me :)

 



So where would Killzone 2 be at game.co.uk? Didn't make the list? Seems a lil strange to me.
