Good month compared to last month at least. Glad to see skyrim outsell battlefield 3 yet another month. Sadly this isn't reflected on vgchartz weekly sales.

Where do u see that Skyrim outsold BF3 on NPD?

Along with the december list, npd always lists the top 10 best selling games of the year. This past year it was
1. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (360, PS3, Wii, PC)
2. Just Dance 3 (Wii, 360, PS3)
3. Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (360, PS3, PC)
4. Battlefield 3 (360, PS3, PC) – Electronic Arts
5. Madden NFL 12 (360, PS3, Wii, PSP, PS2)
6. Call of Duty: Black Ops (360, PS3, Wii, NDS, PC)
7. Batman: Arkham City (360, PS3, PC)
8. Gears of War 3 (360)
9. Just Dance 2 (Wii)
10. Assassin’s Creed: Revelations (360, PS3, PC)

Since then Skyrim has been ahead of battlefield 3 both January and Feburary. 

I am familiar with that list of 2011 sales but how do you know that Skyrim outsold BF3 in February 2012?

Go look in the NPD article on the front page.

hmm looks like battlefield and skyrim got adjusted up 250k+ today, though battlefield is still ahead in USA. Maybe there were some BF3 bundles that npd doesn't track, or vgcharts truely thinks npd isn't so accurate anymore. Either way it looks like Skyrim is going to pass ODST/Gears 1&2 in a few short months.
