The most wanted 2 newcomers are The Last Guardian and New Super Mario Bros. Wii. The innovative DS title Scribblenauts managed 7th despite no one voting it their number 1 most wanted title, even beating the sequel to the highly rated Super Mario Galaxy. In addition to the newcoming games, there are a number of games that have fallen quite a lot, The Conduit fell from 3rd to 18th, mostly due to the split release date (only European votes for the game count as it had already released in America) Other games with large drops are Alan Wake, The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks andHeavy Rain
First I will post the top 50 titles in the same format as before, I will post additional information in the comments section. Unfortunately as I don't have the full results of last months most wanted, and Benjamin didn't post his usual 20-40 list, I cannot post all of the last month (LM) positions nor the movement arrows without compiling last months thread too. But I am giving more detailed info about this month in compensation, and next month should be better.
The points column is cumulated by using scores from members top 5 anticipated titles from this thread, with top titles recieving 5 points, then 4 points down to 1 point, it is also what determines the position of the game. Further position placement is determined by how many of the higher votes the game had, so for instance Wii Sports Resort and NSMBWii both have a score of 58, but Wii Sports had 5 people vote it as their top most wanted game, while NSMB only had 2.
The votes column shows how many members made a vote for that game, ignoring which position they put it in for their own top 5.
