I'm surprised GHIII (360) isn't on there. Didn't they push one million of those in the first week? There were another 6 or so weeks of the year left. Odd. It must be sitting right below MP8.

I just keep wishing that the PS3 would creep up there, but it just doesn't seem like it's going to happen. Ah well, I guess I'm as guilty as anyone since I skew 360 for any multiplatform releases, but I was really hoping for more great PS3 titles.

I can't believe those numbers for Assassin's Creed.

I guess now we can be sure there is going to be a sequel.

I'm curious how many more Wii's would have sold if they weren't so scarce? Nintendo's got to be pretty damn happy these days. The 360 is doing pretty incredible too.
