NPD’s Top Selling Games of All Time

GTA San Andreas

The NPD Group released their list of the top 10 selling games of all time. I’m a bit confused by the list, since games like Halo 3 aren’t listed. Here’s what they have:

  1. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas - 2004 – 9.4 million
  2. Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock - 2007 – 8.2 million
  3. Madden NFL 07 - 2006 – 7.7 million
  4. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City - 2002 – 7.3 million
  5. Madden NFL 06 - 2005 – 6.7 million
  6. Halo 2 - 2004 – 6.61 million
  7. Madden NFL 08 - 2007 – 6.6 million
  8. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare - 2007 – 6.25 million
  9. Grand Theft Auto 3 - 2001 – 6.2 million
  10. Madden NFL 2005 - 2004 – 6.1 million

I guess Halo 3 just missed out, although I thought it was well over 6 million in sales. I’m sure this will be a completely different beast at the end of 2008, with GTA IV and Halo 3 up near the top.

    Who knew a urban gang style game would be on top, ok I knew it would because GTA : SA is my favorite GTA game, it was such a powerful game for the PS2.

    There’s gotta be some exclusions with this list or the people didn’t do a lot of research, they must have not gotten the message that COD4 went 10 million either.
