Top 20 Best Selling PC Games For October

Advertisement (Why?)

The NPD Group has released their Top 20 Best Selling PC games list for the month of October. Sims and World of Warcraft will seemingly never drop out of the top 5 best sellers, which I'm sure EA and Blizzard are happy about day to day! So here we go, this is the full list for October and remember, this is for the PC:

The Sims 2 Pets - Electronic Arts
World of Warcraft - Blizzard Entertainment
Battlefield 2142 - Electronic Arts
Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War Dark Crusade - THQ
Flight Simulator X Deluxe - Microsoft
The Sims 2 Glamor Life Stuff - Electronic Arts
Company of Heroes - THQ
Paws and Claws Pet Vet - Valusoft
The Sims 2 - Electronic Arts
Flight Simulator X - Microsoft
Guild Wars: Nightfall - NCSoft
Seaworld Adventure Parks Tycoon 2 - Activision
Desperate Housewives - Buena Vista Games
Civilization IV - 2K Games
Age of Empires III: The Warchiefs - Microsoft
Guild Wars: Nightfall Collector's Edition - NCSoft
Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy - Lucasarts
Age of Empires III - Microsoft
Sim City 4: Deluxe - Electronic Arts
The Sims 2 Nightlife - Electronic Arts

So there you have it boys and girls. Four Sims 2 games/expansions in the top 20. Six EA games, four from Microsoft. I'm telling you, these marketing guys know what they are doing.

Sims has got to be the most successful franchise in gaming history...weird.

theres no proper amazing games there... ive heard gd things of Company Of Hero's. but i'd buy none of those games. its a shame gaming has gone down hill.

Lets hope next gen consoles can do something better other than support EA so much.
