Final Results Phase II
Here's some other stuff that we kept track of this year. There's some interesting things here and there, so I'm glad we did.
Let's start with the least interesting, though. Here's the amount of games beaten each month.
As a pretty picture:
Yeah...not a lot of stuff to say about that. September is inflated because Foopy64 dumped a bunch of games all at once.
Here's something more interesting, the amount of games beaten by release year.
As a pretty picture:
Keep in mind that this is the original release year of each game. That means, for example, that even for the SNES port or the GBA rerelease, Super Mario Bros. counts as 1985.
I think it's probably not too much of a suprise to see recent years and the late-80's to mid-90's be the most popular.
Finally, here's how many games were claimed for each system:
Sorted by ranking:
And as pretty pictures:
No, I did not forget the Wii. There were simply no games claimed for it this year. Also, this year, all PC games were tracked as 'PC', which wasn't perfect.
Aside from the poor Wii not getting any love, it's also a little surprising to me to see so few PS2 or PSP games played this year.
Special thanks to zerker for making the whole process a lot easier to track and post, and for the nice graphs, as well as for helping out with the listings. I may have done most of the posting, but he worked just as hard to make this happen. And keep your eye open for a final post by him!
Cheers!
