GameSpot writes: Wii Remote pack-in leads list of all-time titles; Guitar Hero III, GTA: San Andreas, Modern Warfare 2, Wii Fit, Mario Kart Wii, Call of Duty 4, Madden NFL 07, COD: World at War, and Namco Museum also make chart.
Last week when NPD released its December 2009 US sales numbers, it declared that three of the 10 games of all time were from the Call of Duty franchise. Today, the industry-research firm released its list of top 10 domestic non-PC games to date, which reconfirmed that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 was the fourth best seller of all time. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare came in seventh place, followed by Call of Duty: World at War in ninth.
Don't call it a comeback--it's been here for years.
Unfortunately, NPD's number-one best-selling software "game" is a game many people don't consider a game at all. The Wii Remote pack-in minigames compilation Wii Play is now the top-selling software game product of all time in the United States, beating out Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock (second) and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (third).
Everything you need to know about Modern Warfare III coming to Xbox Game Pass and PC Game Pass.
Will be interesting to see what sort of numbers GP users draw in come tomorrow. It is believed that this is one many have been waiting for.
Darth,
That is not accurate; this game is old, and most people who want it have already bought it. You might get a small number of subs, but we will mostly see a good influx of players(not new subs) from people with Game Pass who will try it, which is what happened with D4.
CoD: BO 6 will be the test for actual sub numbers.
That's fair... seeing as many have been saying they want CoD in GP. My comment was more of , now that its here... what can it do. Im sure there will be other titles in the franchise that will either entice or turn off different users.
No one's buying a console and signing up for a monthly bill just to get this game to avoid buying it. That's ridiculous. Besides everyone bagged the crap out of this on release for the 4 hour campaign.
With plenty of open world games to choose from on the PlayStation 2, narrowing down the list to just the 15 best is quite the difficult task.
Those games were pretty mid. In fact, I'm surprised they even put The Getaway: Black Monday. But they left out much better games like Way of the Samurai 1-2, Okami, Jak 2 or 3, Final Fantasy 12, Yakuza 1-2, or SSX 3.
From school politics to ping-pong, pistols to police procedurals, let’s dive into the best that Rockstar has to offer.
Hmmm Sony could have 100 million sales on *anygame* for the PS2 if they packed it in...
a pack in is not really a sold unit. It's a here you can have this whether you want it or not...
It's also the most thrown out 'game' in history.
Also, AOL starter discs are apparently the best selling software of all time. OF ALL TIME!
You can buy the wiimotes without the game though.
It's funny that people can't accept that Nintendo's games are the best
sellers(ever in fact).
Hell Mario Kart Wii has surpassed what any PS2 game sold worldwide.
Nintendo's franchises are massive and still sold millions when they were in 3rd place.
Wii Play is good ONLY for the controller. Once you've played through the "games" once...that's it. Move on.
