Top 10 Best-Selling Xbox 360 Games

VGChartz's William D'Angelo: "Today we take a look at the top 10 best-selling games for yet another platform. Up to this point we have looked at the original PlayStation, the Nintendo 64, the PlayStation 2, the original Xbox, the GameCube, the Nintendo DS, the PSP, the Nintendo Wii, and the PlayStation 3. This week it's the turn of Microsoft's second home console, the Xbox 360.

The Xbox 360 is the seventh best-selling video game platform in history and the fifth best-selling home console in gaming history. It is also the second best-selling home console not released by Sony and has thus far sold 84.97 million units lifetime."

Interesting to see the difference between consoles, when compared to the previous "10 best" article.

This really shows the success of Kinect. It was bundled but so where other games on the competitions console, and none of those made the list in the last article.

360 has 3 times as many exclusives as the last article on the PS3 as well, a testament to the phenomenon that is Halo. Halo 5 has only been out a week but has outsold almost every other current gen exclusive.

Still a lot of the same multi-platform games though.

Edit @Men, that's it 10m

I would have expected much more considering GT has been around since 1996 and halo 2001. Also consider the 100m PS1s, 150m PS2, compared to ZERO MS consoles in the 1996 - 2001 and just 24m Original Xbox.

Could you post the numbers for those games on PS3 and 360 so we can see an apples to apples comparison?

Gran Turismo franchise 75 million sold
Halo franchise 65 million sold

I expected the COD titles for sure. Didn't know that Kinect adventures was such a hot seller though. Pretty interesting.

More interested in money than giving fans what they want. Such a shame

CrimsonWing694d ago

With the amount of money they generated, I just don’t understand the scrubbing of this. It would’ve been fantastic for fans.

I really want to know who drove the decision to focus on multiplayer was it Rockstar or take two.

Because when online started taking off many of the studio leads began having falling outs and leading including a founder

Ikr mfs that greedy it's ridiculous

andy853d ago

This makes me sad. Trevor was one of my favourite characters in gaming

Demetrius3d ago

One of the reason I believe once gta 6 release, most of us thoroughly play it, enjoy the world they crafted then after that no offline support, no dlc at all

Morons that allow themselves to be milked continuously by this company is the definition of irony.
Spend more $$ and you'll end up In easier lobbies so you win both ways when ya spend that cash

Controversy in the COD community feels like it happens within an alternate timeline. Activision will take the piss with something, there will be a momentary fuss about it, and then they will forget about it and carry on anyway. Repeat this cycle literally every year for the rest of time.

They call that a crack head! Thats what this is really about, its an addiction. People who dont smoke cigarettes look and laugh at the addicts that spend $8-$10 a pack, but they cant help themselves, they are addicted. That same analogy applies perfectly to the whole MT industry. Only an addict that was not thinking clearly would spend this kind of money on something so frivolous. A round of multiplayer provides the same high a person gets from scratching a lotto ticket, or putting money on a sports bet. MT in general need to really be regulated because you have a generation of kids becoming adults who grew up only knowing the MT era of gaming. Its normal to them and they will in turn teach their kids the same by just being a gaming parent and getting their kids involved with them in gaming. Thats why no matter how ridiculous the headlines keep getting out of the MT industry, it never seems to fade or go away.

I'm so tired of hearing about what they're doing with this game, its never going to change and it's never going to value the consumer over money, furthermore the people who engage so heavily in the microtransactions I guess allegedly are having a blast and can't wait to do it some more this year when the new version of the game drops.
