Halo... Ugh

I suppose its a good reflection of the customers MS has the most of but also the need for a top notch MP in a game to give it legs.

Some very interesting results concerning franchises. I'd have thought GTA would be easy in the top 5 and certainly have sold more copies than Need For Speed. It would seem no matter how much derision is thrown at it from the obsessed gamers that the Wii is very popular indeed and Nintendo aren't going anywhere anytime soon.

Agreed, plus they basically OWN the Asian markets which is quiiiite a lot of people to sell stuff to

Nintendo has always been a dark horse too, like a secret behemoth of the industry
