SavyCharts: May 2012
Well here’s a bit of an anomaly. Usually it’s hotly anticipated new releases, or popular games receiving their first big discount, at the top of the SavyCharts. It’s a different story this month, as ArmA 2: Combined Operations takes the top spot, owing largely to the much talked about zombie survival mod, DayZ. Read on to see what else has been in demand from SavyGamers during the month of May.
0SavyCharts: April 2012
As we fast approach SavyGamer’s 5th anniversary (it’s tomorrow!), lets take a look back at the last month of SavyGamer activity, and see which games have been the most popular. Here’s the April SavyCharts, a glimpse behind the curtain of what deals you lot have been clicking on the most:
1SavyCharts: February 2012
After the slow start to the year, the games industry really started to kick back into gear this February. We had the launch of Sony’s hot new portable console, the PS Vita, and then the trickle of new releases like Syndicate, Binary Domain, Tekken 3DS, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning and The Darkness II. But which games were most in demand amongst SavyGamers like yourself? Here’s my monthly charge of the most popular posts, and rank of most searched for games on SavyGamer from Feburary 2012.
3SavyCharts: January 2012
It’s been a rather quiet month on the new releases front, as January often is, so this month has mostly been about games from last year getting reduced. It looks like a couple of high profile preorders have attracted plenty of attention too. I’m also fairly sure that this is the first month since I’ve been compiling these charts that a PSN game has been at the top of the PS3 chart. Read on to see what’s been most popular on SavyGamer this January:
0SavyCharts: December 2011
With 2011 done and dusted, it’s an appropriate time to take a look at which deals attracted the most attention during the always busy Christmas period. Here’s the December SavyCharts, a record of the most popular deals posted on SavyGamer from last month:
0SavyCharts: October 2011
It’s been a busy month for SavyGamer, with lots of big releases either having just come out, or fast approaching on the horizon. But which deals were the most popular this month? We’ll I’ve delved into the mass of data generated by SavyGamer users, and compiled a chart highlighting which games have caught your attention the most. Here’s October’s SavyCharts:
0SavyCharts: September 2011
I’ve just finished scouring the data generated by SavyGamer users for the month of September, and there’s some interesting trends. Here’s an info dump of the most popular gaming deal posts on SavyGamer over the last month, and a chart of the most popular games by search. The number one slot may come as a surprise to you, but whilst this fantastic launch offer is obviously attracting a lot of attention, it remains to be seen if they will be able to maintain continued interest. Here’s the September SavyCharts:
5SavyCharts: August 2011
As introduced last month, here’s the regular monthly chart of which SavyGamer deals have been most popular. Deus Ex: Human Revolution has been the most sought after game by SavyGamers in August, and the PC is totally dominating the top ten. Part of the reason for the popularity of the PC amongst SavyGamers will be because of my close relationship with RPS, but also I think there is more to it than that. What’s your theory?
8SavyCharts: July 2011
Here’s a new thing for you. I can be a bit a of a nut when it comes to looking at analytics and other such data, and I thought you lot might enjoy having a poke around at the wealth of data generated by SavyGamer users. Welcome to SavyCharts, where I track what games are most popular amongst SavyGamers. I might expand it to include other data later on, but for now I’m planning on putting out a monthly chart of which deal posts have been most popular (measured by pageviews), and which games are being searched for the most. Hopefully you might find this of interest.
