Wow that is a huge number for mass effect considering it was released a whole 5 days before January ended...
Everyone needs 3. You didn't know? Mario Kart is the oldest game on the top 10 by far, it's crazy that it can still stay up there month after month.
Half of the top 10 are Wii games, including a game that came out a year and a half ago (Mario Kart). This is NSMBWii's second month, and it still beat Mass Effect 2 (which also had great numbers for only like 6 days of sales). Also...the end might finally be near for the PS2.
I think the better question is: who on earth is still buying PS2's? The Darksiders sales are surprising. I would've expected Bayonetta to be above it.
Some people with young kids who are getting their first gaming system. Very cheap system, infinite number of great games that cost peanuts. The PS2 lives on.
Uh.....OK. Don't see how that is a problem. Now if I start quoting VGChartz... Anyway, rest of the top 20: http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/27228/NPD_Bayonetta_MAG_Darksiders_Crack_January_Top_20.php Click the link for more, including the 1-20 chart.
No I remembered this "(*includes CE, GOTY editions, bundles, etc. but not those bundled with hardware)" from the other guys post but could not remember which forum I read it. I forgot it was neogaf where I read it which u quoted so I said fail on my part, not urs. And vgchartz is instant fail.
