I'm surprised by that, I would have put money on the top seller being a cross-platform game, which would give it a larger market.

Something like Elite or Football Manager?

Wikipedia says - # Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES - 17.28 Million) # Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (PS2 - 12 Million) # Super Mario Land 2 (Game Boy - 11.09 Million) # Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec (PS2 - 11 million) Biggest PC ones are # The Sims (10 million) # Half-Life (8 million) # Starcraft (8 million) # Age of Empires II (8 million) # Myst (7 million)

u know i dont think that the 'marios bros series' should count individualy as theyre just variations on the originals theme, nor would i count the gameboy entries as they're moreover a portable game, like old card games are.

as for the pc-game list, i do notice theyre largely RTS type games...funny that, for cant consoles process or display certain games types, as properly as pc's do?
or is the ms-xbox360 as good as a modern pc?

ps- i think 3 of the above games are british made.
