Blizzard is Dominating the Sales Charts

Posted 20th Aug 2008 12:15 PM by Leord

The US NPD Sales Charts for August 3rd to 9th are in, and they continue to be a one-developer-story, taking half of the positions without even releasing a new game yet. WoW, Diablo and WarCraft are covering the positions with primarily battle chests.

1. WoW: Battle Chest
2. The Sims 2 Double Deluxe
3. World Of Warcraft
4. Nancy Drew: The Phantom Of Venice
5. Spore Creature Creator
6. Diablo Battle Chest
7. Warcraft III Battle Chest
8. WoW: Burning Crusade
9. The Sims 2 Ikea Home Stuff
10. Call of Duty 4

If you ask why StarCraft isn’t on there, it’s probably because WarCraft III is a similar game and newer. StarCraft got its influx of buyers around the same time the sequel was announced, much like Diablo II and Diablo III now. WoW will soon get it’s second expansion, which probably is a reason for their current success.

PS. if you are getting your copy, remember you can get it in our shop and support the site at the same time!

Thanks, IncGamers.

Fantastic news for Blizzard.  Owning 50% of the top ten sellers.  Must be tempting for them to find a way to take all ten spots.

My eye can’t help but be drawn to The Sims 2 Ikea Home Stuff.  Are you kidding me?!  That sounds just awful.

Once Spore comes out, there will be nothing on the list but Blizzard and Maxis…
