By the Numbers: Xbox 360 vs Giant Bomb 2012

@Roger778: Well, it did have a hell of a head start on most of the other games released this year.

@Marino:

And I still loved it, regardless.

Wonderful stuff. Neverdead did eventually get that quicklook though.

Yeah, I've been somewhat debating whether I should update the data.

I don't think it counts, considering it's the new year.

This is great. Love it. Lots of counterintuitive stuff, especially in the top 20 list. Nice job :)

I don't think I'm gonna change it.

But, if anyone's wondering, if I did remove it, then Major League Baseball 2K12 would get into the top 10 on that list.

Don't know if this has been mentioned, but NeverDead did get a quicklook.... in 2013...

See the last four posts or so. That's what we've been talking about. ;)

@Marino: That requires reading! I don't know how to do that!

But, in all fairness, it was 2013. So, technically it did not receive a quick look in this Data Dump (since it's a 2012 dump)

Those 4 Nickelodeon Dance 2 players are a dedicated bunch.

Ha, love this thread. Interesting to see all the data!

Average players per game 775.53, that's a little too on the nose!

LMAO, does that mean that all 4 people that played Nickelodeon Dance 2, got all the achievements for it? xD

Hey, looks like I'm the first one to get the Dishonored DLC achievements, kind fo funny how easy the main game is but some of those DLC achievements are no joke.

Yeah. It's a kids game so I'm guessing those achievements are just really easy.

Really interesting - shame you mentioned this might be removed. Not everyone is a fan of achievements but there's definitely thousands on the site that are!

Excellent work, this was very entertaining indeed, so thanks for the effort.

The Japanese games that no one played should be excluded from the other categories because the math is broken. i.e., Root Double is both the most and least completed game this year: Least because no one got any achievements in it (because no one played it), and most because 100% of the people who played it got 100% of the achievements.

(That said, I did play Phantom of Inferno a few years ago, just not on 360.)

Love these numbers! Some fun things between them

Marino is the guy you don't want to screw with in Eve Online. He makes spreadsheets his bitch.

Interesting stuff

Awesome stuff.

What's up with Happy Wars?

Surprised they never reviews The Witcher 2, i never even realized lol

This must have taken forever. Awesome job.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I kept track of releases all year. Entering/compiling the data took a couple days of work.

Great stuff @Marino, love the stats.

Wow Marino. Great list there. Thank you :)

Thanks for the read!
