Over 321,500 gamers doubled down for an aces wild deal-in at the Full House Poker table, making it the best selling game on Xbox Live Arcade so far this year, according to Gamasutra. Also, we do not know any poker lingo.

There are plenty of other winners in the chart (which is able only to count games with leaderboards) like Dead Rising: Case West (248,746), Torchlight (191,781) and A World of Keflings (185,504). But if we were to pick a lowlight, it would be that the delightful Adventures of Shuggy sold just 2,594 despite being, well, totally delightful. What's the matter, internet? Don't like good video games?

Interesting figures... kind of looks like not a lot of good downloadable games really came out this year lol. Odd to see most of EA's efforts into the downloadable space really feel flat on their arse... think it's all getting a bit too crowded.

Mind you, these games probably sell a long time into the future, as is the nature of downloadable games, or so I've been told.

Limited by leaderboards too... Outland and Might and Magic games would be up there amongst the top I'm sure.
