it would be an different story on PC 

Strategy games are the only games recommended by scientists that actually do good for people 

on topic: out of the FPS: around 65 million would be Call of Duty alone 



Of Course That's Just My Opinion, I Could Be Wrong

Without CoDFPS on home consoles is only 103.52



And people thought FPS "dominated"



That Sports number is due to Wii Sports as well as all the annual EA Sport franchises right?

 

And I thought Platformers would've been a higher than Racers.

Yes Wii Sports/Resort is labled as Sports in VGChartz Along with Wii Fit and some others too. They dont have a fitness label on this site nor do they have a music one which I believe is under Others
