Yup, even if the year isn't finished Yahoo has decided to list the biggest flops of 2010 in sales, these games had big budgets but few sales.
Alan Wake
The problem? Red Dead Redemption, which was released the same day. Rockstar’s western epic sucked the oxygen out of the room when it came out, dominating gamers’ time and affection. Wake never had a chance.
Blur
What’s the problem? It could be that Blur was caught in something of a racing game blast zone, hitting the market at roughly the same time as Sony's ModNation Racers and Disney's Split/Second.
Prince of Persia: The forgotten sands
Even a tie-in with a major Hollywood release couldn’t help the latest installment of this long-running franchise top the sales charts.
Rockband: Green Day
While there’s only one month’s worth of sales data available for this latest installment in the Rock Band series, the numbers indicate that the fan base of Billie Joe Armstrong & co. prefer to listen to the punk rock trio instead of playing their songs on plastic instruments.
Split/Second
It did nearly twice as well as Blur, but never really achieved the breakout status so many people expected it to.
Tiger Woods 11
Sales were just 32 percent of what last year’s version sold in its first month, in fact. (To be fair, that version was initially bundled with the Wii Motion Plus peripheral.)
