Here is the ol Gamefly Top 10 most requested list. Xbox 360 rentals clearly are dominating at this point, while the Nintendo Wii and PS3 owners wait patiently for Santa...
My guess is that 'must have' next gen games like Gears of War, Zelda (Wii) and Resistance (PS3) are purchases versus rentals. This would explain why they are not at the top of each respective list. Rainbow Six Vegas is at the top of the Xbox 360 list with Lost Planet not far behind, while upcoming/new releases for the Nintendo Wii (Castlevania) and PS3 (Fight Night) top their respective charts...
