Thats insane 8.1 attachment rate. It crazy how some of sony and nintendo's exclusives are just walloped by a 3rd party game on the 360. Resistance 2 flopped HARD. It had less sales than gears 2 by far and even worse left 4 deadbeat it out in less time and that supposed to be 1 of Sony's new big exclusives. Baiscally if your a male with a decent amount of testosterone the 360 is for you.
I'm surprised with the R2 flop as well... The game is very good actually. I like R2's ending way better than Gears 2. Sorry, Gears never have the descent story to start with, but i love the action :)
The only story worthy part of Gears 2 is Dominic's search for his wife, Maria. Then again, it has no depth, not too much of the couple's past is elaborated. Marcus and the Anya chick definitely up to something. If Marcus calls her name one more in the game, he's a douche...
Sorry for the OT, anyhow back to the topic, i don't see how the attachment rate for the Xbox 360 is better than PS3 and Wii. In my personal collection, all three consoles are pretty even in terms of games. Maybe the count included downloadable games on Live?
