First off why do you have a poll? This isn't really something you can have an opinion about.

Second, where are you results?

Third, it is pretty clear that the 360 sold the most. The PC will eventually overtake the total sales of the PS3 and 360 but, like all PC games, that takes time as PC games never have really massive day one launches except for rare occasions.

Have a look at www.bf3stats.com have put it in my post.

I put the poll in to see what system wars users think is the bigger platform for BF3.

That number fluctuates a lot though. A few days ago I saw:

PC 210,000

PS3 88,000

Xbox 200,000

Then later it was:

PC 180,000

PS3 110,000

Xbox 205,000

I think the numbers vary according to time. Right now most BF3 players will be from the UK and Europe which i dare say is PC and PS3 land........

360 sold the most copies so I think it stands to reason that that's the platform with the most players. I don't trust these numbers on the account of them being weird.

The number jumps around. You need to calculate an average.

We really would need a unique count for 24 hours, or better, the average of that over a week.

I guess the numbers vary a lot over a day because the market is vastly different in Europe compared to the US. In Germany, it sold over 200'000 on PS3 and PC and 500'000 total within the first days.

It depends on the time, in about 5 hours 360 will probably have the most players but currently it is behind PC & PS3. 360 sold the most though

You will have to find that news then. It was posted a few weeks ago and showed that 360 had sold the most at that point.

Wait, it is PS3? I didn't look at your link but judging by the posts putting numbers, it's PS3. I voted for it just for the rofls. Probably because multiplatform gamers got it on PS3 since it was supposed to come with 1943.

No, people discredit them because they make guesses. They don't include DD either. They've been proven incredibly inaccurate many times. Even NPD is barely reliable, but at least they're somewhat accurate.

I've played almost 20, only level 16, and barely done any quests :lol: So much stuff to steal, see, and so many side quests. Took a break only for SM3DL and I have to run wires through the walls for a new 5.1 system comming today. This game is way too amazing.

No, people don't take VGchartz seriously because of how they get their numbers.

No, because they're a website that completely hides its sourcing, and features sales data that is frequently inaccurate, and changes depending on actual NPD or results to shareholders - as well as ignoring a large percentage of the market. They only exist for squabbling faboys to throw their 'stats' at eachother, which in itself is quite sad.

Or they estimate sales numbers with things like surveys.
