Sales aren’t everything and the success of a game can’t always be measured by the numbers. However, massive sales generally indicate a good game. We took our incredibly deep college research experience (Google rocks) and tried to find the best selling PC games of all time.
Blizzard Entertainment has announced the opening of beta registrations for “World of Warcraft: The War Within,” inviting players to explore new subterranean worlds beneath Azeroth.
Replaying Skyrim after 13 years is a reminder of the progress made in western RPGs over the last decade, but also what's been lost.
RPGs are often huge, sprawling endeavours. With limited playtime, we have to choose wisely, so here's the best western RPGs available today.
"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!
How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?
1 - Alpha Protocol - Now on GOG
2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera
And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden
Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.
Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.
Pity.
I don't think this list is accurate.

30 million. 2 years ago. That is more than every Uncharted game... Combined.
Just let that sink in for a minute.

Hey guys. The numbers were from Statista, which is much more accurate than Wikipedia. I don't make them up. These are the best selling boxed PC games of all time and the units that were sold worldwide as of January 2017. All of that was mentioned in the article. Thanks for checking it out.
The number 1 spot genuinely surprised me, especially as it was cross platform.
