Best Selling Games of 2010

Here’s where it was at for 2010 from Gamesindustry.biz … (you may need to register to read full article, but I’m posting most important info here!)

01 Call of Duty: Black Ops – Activision (PS3, 360, PC)
02 FIFA 11 – EA (PS3, 360, PC)
03 Just Dance – Ubisoft (Wii)
04 Red Dead Redemption – Rockstar (PS3, 360)
05 Wii Fit Plus – Nintendo (Wii)
06 Just Dance 2 – Ubisoft (Wii)
07 Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood – Ubisoft (PS3, 360)
08 Wii Sports Resort – Nintendo (Wii)
09 Halo: Reach – Microsoft (360)
10 Battlefield: Bad Company 2 – EA (PS3, 360, PC)

No surprise there for the No.1, or 2 spot. Great to see a dance title take the 3 and 6 spots – shows the industry becoming more mainstream. A deserved no.4 for Red Dead Redemption (though personally I’d put it above FIFA). No PS3 only title in the top ten? I bet LittleBigPlanet 2 does it in 2011… here’s what the article commented:

Activision’s shooter sequel Call of Duty: Black Ops has been confirmed as the best-selling game of 2010 at UK retail – outselling all competition in less than two months on sale.

The Treyarch-developed PS3, 360 and PC title brought in £113.8 million in its first week of sales, which has been hailed as the highest-grossing week ever for a game in the UK.
